ok this stuff does require a little more knowledge of phpbb and HTML to make it easy
1st for the line seperating user from post i searched for author because that was the title of that cell, and 1st found the line with {L_AUTHOR}. In phpbb all variables for language text startswith L_, and the other stuff like something.something.something is usually stuff that is pulled from the db(some1 correct me on this stuff if im wrong, im not an expert lol), so I know that L_AUTHOR is where I want to be for the author text. Now I go down to the corresponding cell in the next row to see if it looks like the cell I want. since i see poster_name, rank, avatar, joined, from, etc. i know that this is the right cell. I wasnt sure how to add the little line on side so i went to the 2nd best person who would
GOOGLE!!! and searched html table border, which lead me to this nice site
http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/tables/ ... p_147.html .
I noticed then that the cell does not even matter, but it does help to know which table the cell your working with is in =]. So i added to that table "rules=cols frame=vsides" and it gave the nice line down the side that you want.
now for the other line above the images. for this i searched for profile because itll be right above the profile image, and that lead me right to the line i wanted, because i saw profile, pm, e-mail, www, etc. image variables, and then i went back to google again to see how i can make the hr(which makes a line) nice and colorful. google lead me to this great "styling <hr>" site
http://www.sovavsiti.cz/css/hr.html where i found out that the best way for cross-browser coloring of the hr would be to add it into the css; so i added in this hr(hr2 since i noticed there was already and hr setting in the css)
hr.hr2 {
color: #FFCC00;
background-color: #FFCC00;
height: 2px;
}
then i stuck in <hr class="hr2" /> in and above that line where the images were untill i got it looking nice... which was on the line before that line, after the <tr>, but not in its own cell, which kicked it out of that row, but right above it so that it spans across the whole thing and not just the little area the images are taking up
heres a screen shot of how it came out,
dang it, i guess it cant be gray since the alternating color is gray... hmmm lol ill work on that
