That's a good start. I see your stripping down the theme and getting rid of the borders and background images. Simple is always best in my opinion.

Thanx guess its a IE8 issue sad

I reverted back to default and modified some other stuff, didnt like it before.

What do you guys think of it so far?

What I am planning to do:

Make the Navbar Red, edit the colours of the texts to make it readable tongue

And I am thinking of making the widget headers red aswell......

Any tips, ideas?

What did you do with your background? The red line is kinda distracting. I liked it better before smile

Re: Gamerz-Nation.nl - The Nation of True Gamers!

A white navbar with a red part on the 'page' where the visitor is?

.sf-menu li.current_page_item a { background: #000; }

This will make the current page black. You can piece the rest of the code together perfectly smile

Weird, this only works on the homepage, not on the subpages.

Oh, and your niews page looks garbled. De code is nog niet goed blijkbaar.

I Currently Only have been able to do the background still working on the hover and active page image.

About the nieuws page it seems to be caused by displaying the date and comments in the arras options. when removed its looking good:p

pherhaps a bug of 1.4.2?

Do you have both pages and categories in your nav-menu?
