if you want the whole text in that box to be bigger, maybe you can try to change this:
Code: Select all
<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellspacing="1">
to this:
Code: Select all
<table class="tablebg" width="100%" cellspacing="1" style="width: 12px;">
change the
12px to what ever size you prefer!

sorry it's my fault, it's supposed to be
not
sorry about that!
sorry that will only increase the font in the table header. let me test it a little more and tell you the correct edits!

i really hate those phpbb3 styles that use tables!
how does it look if you used this instead?
Code: Select all
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->
<br clear="all" />
<table width="100%" cellspacing="0" class="tablebg">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th colspan="2">
<h2>About Us</h2>
</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%" class="row1">

That actually centered the words "about us" in the bar which i like.
and now with that html you provided, I was able to use <font size> tags to enlarge the lists and the paragraph.
but thank you so much for your help man, I appreciate it!

great you got it working, but if I was you i would search in the internet about better ways to add the font size to those items instead of adding it to each of the lines. Like using
to the whole thing, like
Code: Select all
<td width="100%" class="row1" style="font-size: 22px;">
instead, but it's up to you whether you want it xhtml strict or not!

im guessing it takes a little bit longer for browsers to interpret?

shouldn't really they should interpret all of it fine. just a matter of taste.

WEll I just have to find time to get it fixed, I have no problem letting it display like that... a little overboard and ugly on the html but who's gonna view the source?
I added a mod today. "who was here" but i couldnt find asupport for the Aero blue style that I use. Care to venture over to my site and give a thought? I tried to use a setup like what was done for the affiliates box.

try to copy the table html from the who is online table, and just replace the who is online stuff with the stuff from the who was here mod and let me know what you get!
