It's 5k, I really don't think modem users will be bothered much by it. And as for setting it as background: if you already use a background image, the only option is to put your entire layout into a 100%...

and please do NOT use this forum to pimp your board. There's one thread here that's an exception to the rule (the big one with over 730 repies)

I fail to see the use for a static image though. A gradient (and most other patterns) are much better to be done in a background/repeated fashion. Saves bandwidth too.

[Menno]

yeah, thanks to your forum descriptions the gradient isn't long enough to cover the entire cell, obviously.

there are no shotcuts, no easy ways or guides to success. It doesn't work that way. Just read the forums (old topics), they usually contain what you're looking for. As to creating a style, it's easy....

If I had a dutch site I still wouldn't use dutch colors, since they're just too damn ugly. I'm sure there are better ways to express that the site is polish.

[Menno]

I still don't like the font combination too much, and the red in the logo is, imo, ugliest red there is (standart browser link red... I've grown alergic to it ). Try a darker shade.

[Menno]

exactly. IE can't tell the difference between cookies....

[Menno]

well, the colors don't go well together, and neither do the fonts you use.
