Alot of webmasters code and design for there monitor size , there site always looks perfect to them but what they dont realize is how bad it looks to others with different screen sizes See Bad Design  Even the banner ads are aligned left  With wide screen monitors it looks real bad and un professional So how do you get your header to accommodate just about all monitor sizes ? I used multiple images .. 3 and justified the each one differently , left , center , right and replaced this code in the DEFAULT VB header template HTML Code:
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td> <td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell"> <if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else /> </if> </td> HTML Code:
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><div align="center"> <a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"> <img src="http://www.dieselbombers.com/images/dieselbomber.png" align="right" border="0" alt="Diesel Bombers - The Ultimate Diesel Community" /> <img src="http://www.dieselbombers.com/images/dieselbomberleft.png" align="left" border="0" alt="Diesel Bombers - The Ultimate Diesel Community" /> <img src="http://www.dieselbombers.com/images/dieselbombersheader2009.png" align="center" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" border="0" /></a></div></td> <td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell"> <if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else /></if> </td> demo: http://www.dieselbombers.com grab the right side of your browser window and drag it in , the images move to accommodate the screen size . Do your self a favor start a thread on your forum asking for screen shots of your home page , you may be suprized how different your site looks to others DM |
