    Hi, if you look at my forum, forums.hostingyourworld.com
    see the way its all strecthed from side to side of the webpage!
    Is there anyway at all to kinda center it and apply a fixed width to the forums?


    Like forum.fuse9.net
    That forum is all centered!, how can i do this for my forum?
    Is it just the theme they are using or is there a way to do it?

    Thanks Again
    Andrew Butler

    In the style settings for that style, change the width settings to fixed pixel sizes instead of percentages.

    To make things easier...as I wouldn't be surprised if you came back and asked "how do I do that?" ...

    Go to your Style Manager in the ACP and then in the dropdown menu for your skin, select StyleVars, change the first box that is a percentage now to the width you would like, without the px tag. So...if you'd like your forums to be 780px wide, change that box to 780
