Is there a way to change the default menu buttons? Any help would be appreciated. I am using SMF Default theme version 1.1.18.

Just wondering if i could square them off a bit more and alter the color. Or maybe do a whole new menu, not quite sure yet.

The default menu is made up of images/css.

In ../Themes/default/style.css

You can find/edit

/* definitions for the main tab, active means the tab reflects which page is displayed */
.maintab_first, .maintab_back, .maintab_last, .maintab_active_first, .maintab_active_back, .maintab_active_last
{
color: white;
text-transform: uppercase;
vertical-align: top;
}
.maintab_back, .maintab_active_back
{
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
font-size:  9px;
vertical-align: top;
padding: 2px 6px 6px 6px;
font-family: tahoma, sans-serif;
}

.maintab_first
{
background: url(images/maintab_first.gif) left bottom no-repeat;
width: 10px;
}
.maintab_back
{
background: url(images/maintab_back.gif) left bottom repeat-x;
}
.maintab_last
{
background: url(images/maintab_last.gif) left bottom no-repeat;
width: 8px;
}
.maintab_active_first
{
background: url(images/maintab_active_first.gif) left bottom no-repeat;
width: 6px;
}
.maintab_active_back
{
background: url(images/maintab_active_back.gif) left bottom repeat-x;
}
.maintab_active_last
{
background: url(images/maintab_active_last.gif) left bottom no-repeat;
width: 8px;
}

/* how links behave in main tab. */
.maintab_back a:link , .maintab_back a:visited, .maintab_active_back a:link , .maintab_active_back a:visited
{
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
}

.maintab_back a:hover, .maintab_active_back a:hover
{
color: #e0e0ff;
text-decoration: none;
}


To make it a boxy tab, I suggest modifying the maintab images.
