How to change background color for CA Evo (default)

[oldboy]

Im using the default CA Evo (default) and would like to change the white
background in the posts to light grey.

Can i do it via Admin in vB?
Or should i change the color for any of the bg_alt1.gif ?

Thank you for a great Style.

Btw. im making Swedish buttons for CA Evo, can i upload it here when im done so other can use it?

Yes, change those gradients, then change background color in these css templates:
- .alt1, .alt1Active
- .alt2, .alt2Active
- .alt3
- td.inlinemod
- .panel
- .panelsurround

Also in "extra" css tempalte edit bg color in this code:.postdata {
border-top: solid 1px #E0E0E0;
border-left: solid 1px #E0E0E0;
border-right: solid 1px #D7D7D7;
border-bottom: solid 1px #D7D7D7;
margin: 3px 5px;
padding: 2px;
color: #808080;
background: #FFFFFF url(images/ca_evo/misc/bg_alt1.gif) top left repeat-x;
font-size: 10px;
}

Thank you for a quick response.
I have another question, where do i change the links from the topbar on the main page. The links have different location and I am missing the Forum link.

Also the link to the index page is now pointing to cmps_index.php??

you can see the forum here http://www.mp4sverige.com

How long time would it take you to change the background color, if i would like to use your customization services?

All links are in "header" template.
cpms_index.php link was created by portal mod you are using.
what background color you are talking about? one outside of forum or inside it? if outside then it can be done very quickly, if inside then it will take a while because lots of images and code will have to be modified.

1. Well my intention is to change the background color inside the post, as default its white and i would like to change it to light gray..

From your previous reply it does not look like a quick fix for me, so i may have to use your services.

2. I could not find the index link in "header" but i found following code in "navbar" :

<!-- breadcrumb -->
<div id="navbar-row">
<if condition="is_array($navbits)">
<div class="navbar navbar-top"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a> $navbits[breadcrumb]
&raquo; <strong>$navbits[lastelement]</strong></div>
<else />
<div class="navbar navbar-top"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="1">$vboptions[bbtitle]</a></div>
</if>
</div>
<br class="spacer8" />
<!-- / breadcrumb -->

I tried to disable it so im sure its the right peace of code, but here come the part i cant figure out;
From the main page (http://www.mp4sverige.com/index.php)

The index link is pointing to http://www.mp4sverige.com/cmps_index.php but when browsing through forum the same link points to http://www.mp4sverige.com/index.php

So i still cant figure who/where to change the cmps_index.php

ps. i dont get the same cmps_index.php problem when using other Styles

Ok forget number 2 , i solved the problem
Im useing vBadvanced CMPS and just had to change the CMPS URL to index.php

Create new css classes like .alt1-post and .alt2-post, and put custom background color in it. Then in postbit or postbit_legacy change all class="alt1" to class="alt1-post", same with alt2.
