OOps thank you!!!
Sorry but sometime it's a little bit hard to find the right answer between all the search results if you search for "forum width"...

Ohhh i been wondering how to do that for a long time!!!

hehe gone are the days that phpbb was just nice easy table layouts!!!
very confusing to theme it now, trying my best to make a fitting theme.

I have another Question.
How is it possible to make round Corners around the Forum like here: http://www.varjanta.com/forum/za%C4%8Detek-t19.html
I like this Style.
Maybe you can help me where and how to put the coding for this.
Would be great!

Hi, I made the changes to the 3 pieces of code but it doesn't seem like anything changed. Any hints to what I might be doing wrong?

Try to purge your cache and then refresh your style templates.

The theme on that forum is a fairly highly altered version of prosilver.

If you wish to have a theme like that you are able to download and install an authors style from either here in the STG MOD Datebase or at http://www.phpbb.com

There are many very attractive styles available at both locations. If you are after a round cornered style I can recommend Glacier by Ika as I use it myself and it is a fixed width and round cornered style which seems to be what you are after.

Thank you very much Liam,

the only Problem is, i have about 15 Mods installed and with a new Style i have to change a lot of code for this Styles.
But thanks for the Links, i will take a look in the css Files...
