Hey all, I am working on setting up a XOOPS site and most of the settings have been fairly easy to change so far. My question is, how do I identify the header space so I can adjust my logo image size to fit exactly? I've looked long and hard for an answer to this and can't seem to find any info. My theme is the subblack phpbb theme. I would like the edges to "hug" my logo image on all pages. Is there a table/cell spacing adjustment I must make? Or do I just have to set the image size correctly? Once again, if it is the latter, how do I identify what that image size must be?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A couple of ways to do this. Install and load the theme. Right click on the logo image and load it and see what size it is and where it is pulling from. Then make a logo that size and replace yours with it.

Or, open the theme file itself and see if it specifies the size of table that holds it. Or examine the code it produces by loading the theme and doing a view source in your browser and see if it specifies it there.

For instance, this XOOPS site specifies a 150x80 img in the HTML (funny thing is that the graphic is actually 148x80 so that effectively stretches it just a little). Otherwise, the table doesn't specify (nor does the stylesheets), so it will grow (or shrink) as the table grows if this one were replaced with a different size.

I haven't downloaded the subblack, although I did try the subgreen at one point. If that doesn't help let me know and I'll look it up and give you exact specifics.

Okay, thanks for the help. I've pretty much tried most of what you suggested. Would it be better to insert the image as the banner instead of the logo? If so, how would I do that? The original logo was pretty small and I want this one to cover the complete header. It almost fits as is, but there is a small gray space to the left and at the bottom. When comparing the code to the one on this site, I can't find anything similar when it comes to h x w.

Again, thanks for the help.

Okay, after making a couple of changes, I've realized that there is a problem with the spacing between borders in the header (top, bottom, and right side). I would like to make the value 0. Any help? Sorry for the trouble.
