Thanks that worked well. However, I have a question. How would I force the Background Image to show just as it does in all other modules.
Here is the line in the style sheet.
th {background-image: url(bgt.jpg); color:#000000; line-height: 200%; padding : 2px; vertical-align : middle; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}
could it be that the news module does not use the <TH> Tags?

It still seems to not work Here is the CSS Code:

body {color: black; background: #ffffff; margin: 0; padding: 0;}

Please! help I love this theme.

Cool Thanks, I am sorry blue nova.

I Think what is missing is the Backgound color.

I am using a template I downloaded from the template Library. It works fine. However, when you click on the news module the heading in the events are showing in white, which means that it can not be seen until you mouseover the title. here is the site Sk8photos.com
My question is this what would I look for in the style sheet, because the template works well with all other modules?

I have had users to register. However, there is no activation post process. I have tested that the email is being sent on my self. Could it be possible that they are not getting the email?

Yes that was the question. Thnks for the answer.

Is there a way to make my polls and custom blocks visible, but a user to comment.

I have created this site using XOOPS sk8photos.com
I get plenty of views. However, I am having trouble getting registerd users. I am looking for ideas on increasing registration.

well can i get help with the headline module?
