Homie, I just see a Simple Machines Forum with the default theme, I don't see any 3D effects...

[Homie]

Look at this image that may help

As suggested, remove the image. It's not purely css or php that's doing that.

[Homie]

Well i dont (KNOW) What i get rid of in the css stlye file i dont know what code to edit in there can someone tell me 

[bostasp]

Find this is index.template.php:

Code Select Expand


<style type="text/css"><!--
.catbg
{
background-image: url(http://www.simplemachines.org/community/Themes/default/images/titleback.gif);
}
.catbg2
{
background-image: url(http://www.simplemachines.org/community/Themes/default/images/titleback.jpg);
}
.code
{
white-space: pre;
}
--></style>


Replace it with this:

Code Select Expand


<style type="text/css"><!--
.code
{
white-space: pre;
}
--></style>

Goto Themes/default on ur ftp if the theme u wanna edit...

Now all you need to do is open up index.template.php in notepad, and remove the following (Its near the top):

Code Select Expand

echo '
<style type="text/css"><!--
.catbg
{
background-image: url(', $settings['images_url'], '/titleback.gif);
}
.catbg2
{
background-image: url(', $settings['images_url'], '/titleback.jpg);
}', $context['browser']['is_gecko'] ? '
.code
{
white-space: pre;
}' : '', '
--></style>';

Now you will be left with a grey background...

Open up your style.css file for the default theme and replace this...

Code Select Expand

/* The category headers, page indexes, and such things - catbg2 is used for "new" posts. */
.catbg, .catbg2
{
font-weight: bold;
background-color: silver;
color: #000000;
}

With...

/* The category headers, page indexes, and such things - catbg2 is used for "new" posts. */
.catbg,
{
   font-weight: bold;
   background-color: silver;
   color: #red;
}
.catbg2
   font-weight: bold;
   background-color: silver;
   color: #green;

Ive set the colors to reg and green but u can easily change this...

Good luck

It looks harder than it is

Just to note, those urls to simplemachines.org will be whatever your address to your forum is.

Slightly different variation hehe

[bostasp]

I'd trust ryan's version more, does it the proper way

[Homie]
