Hi Everyone.

This is my site. We haven't been open too long but I hope it will grow into a good all round international radio site.

Wow Zo, I totally missed this thread!!! I didn't know you had started up a forum. Just joined up and waiting for validation.

Proboards isn't a bad forum and if you have any questions just give me a shout.

Thanks Jackie Thats most appreciated. I haven't used proboards before and there is a lot I don't know such as how to get a background of your own choice off your own pc in to the board as a change from the boring white background. I know there must be a way to do it but will have to discover new things as I go.

Thanks for joining it's most appreciated

If you use something like photobucket to upload the background that you have saved.

Then go to Admin - Skins/forum colours and create a new skin.

You have to name it, and then you still have the default white background to go back to if you want.

The main problem is, that you have to choose the colour that you want for everything in one go - all the writing and all the different categories. I just chose random colours and then kept going back and changing things until I got what I liked.

For the background colour, just use the URL from Photobucket in the space that says background colour.

Hope that helps some! It is a bit faffy but once you have it how you like it you shouldn't really have to do much then.
