Okay, I didn't really want to post this until I was done, but I've run into a wall. The top logo is flush in FireFox, but not in IE, and I can't fucking figure out what I need to do to make it work outside of restructuring the entire table. Anybody got any tips?

I have no idea, but I really like your skin. Your rank ideas (http://www.neverwake.net/trailerforum/viewtopic.php?t=4) are cool too.
I know I shouldn't have posted since I can't help you, but I think everybody likes compliments. ;)
I hope you find the answer to your question.

It's because of the line breaks. In Firefox, it doesn't make line breaks spaces when it's between two closing-opening HTML tags. In IE it does.

what line breaks?
I guess I'm lazy, but I would just make it one whole single image if that was happening to me. I don't figure how that would make me lazy as I would probably end up re-coding the whole header, but anyway. Looks like a good skin, I always like skins with smaller layouts.
It could also be the fact that you have about 3 more tables between logo1.gif and logo2.gif.
I would say my way is probably totally different to the way you were thinking, but hey, it's an idea.

yeah, i was trying to avoid changing the table structure, but it looks like I'm gonna have to.

not any advice or anything but thats a pretty sweet forum you got there. I also think the rankings look sweet. How did you make it?

I didn't do a whole lot - just customized this skin (http://www.phpbb.com/styles/forum/index.php?style=88) and added zelda themed icons.

Thats strange Zubaz, my friend uses the exact same forum skin as you and has it running at full screen.
The whole way accross the screen I mean.

that's cause that's how it comes - I just dont' like full screen forums (sorry three)
on a side note, I fixed it, apparently the <img align=left AND the <td align=left add up to not actually aligning on the left.

Now that I think about it, I don't like full screen forums either. And I like the color green all of sudden. Strange...

it would be cool if the navigation had rollover effects...

I might just do that. It'll be another week before they get the new dedicated server for the forum, so I've got some time to fuck around with it.

If you do, I suggest using this method, rather than JS: http://www.simplebits.com/archives/2003/09/30/accessible_imagetab_rollovers.html
