Hi Guys its me again, I am trying to change the theme on my forum/TP Portal but when I change the theme I can't see the forum button.
The themes are listed below which I have downloaded as TP compatible.
I have not changed them to any of these as the button does not show.
One thing I did not explain the last time is that I am very much a beginner at this and would appreciate your help on this.

ec225, custom themes need to have a button added for the 'forum' so go to the topic or site where you got the theme for directions on how to add one.
Also note that some of the themes written by Bloc have TP support built in and for those you would go to your current theme in the admin panel to turn on that support.

Tks ken I will try this tomorrow and let you know if it cures the problem.
The response on these questions is incredible and very welcome, great job guys.
Sorted after a few mods, hows the breakout now.
And once again thanks for the excellent help.
Glad you got it sorted.
The breakout is still there for me in FF and IE7, your banner is just to wide. :)
If you want it to look good you'll have to make the width smaller than 1024.
I know this isnt what I originally asked but if I reduce the gif to 1023px it does not appear across the whole of the top, is there a way to do this.
Or am I doing something really silly.
Tks again for your help
What is it doing in the SMF Core Default theme?
You appear to have some other element that's helping to cause the misalignment so try it in the SMF default to see how it looks in that one.
I have reset to the default theme and it seems the same to me, I appreciate your help with this but if you think this is an smf problem do you want me to ask there.

You gotta remember that its not all about your view. Other users are going to be using different settings such as resolution. If I run my laptop at 1024x768 the 1023 logo/banner would look good probably. But on my Desktop I run 1280x1024 it will be a little small. You have to find a happy medium that will work for the "majority" of people IF you're going to use a fixed width header like that. Otherwise you need to use a header that has some images that will repeat to fill the header as the page gets bigger.
Tks Guys for all your help its very much appreciated.
