Question about Black Rain v 2 for SMF 2.0

[Waylon]

I have a question about the "Black Rain v 2" theme  for SMF 2.0.

It's a beautiful theme and we plan to start using it on one of our sites (which I'd be glad to provide a link to once the theme is in place).

I'd like to make two minor changes to the theme, one of which I've managed to do, the other which I haven't been able to figure out.

The first change was to move the strip of nav buttons up into the news fader area, which we never use. That was done with a simple position:relative style setting. (A sleazy way to do it, but it seems to have worked fine.)

The other issue is the one I haven't been able to figure out. I'd like to collapse the area where the strip of nav buttons used to be. This is the area directly above the breadcrumb trail and below the news fader area (outlined in yellow in the attached image).

The attached image should show what we've done, and what we want to do. How do we collapse this area?

I wouldn't know how to collapse that area , i do know you'd have to do it "if possible" in your (index.template.php) ---

Ok, in index.css find: ul.linktree
It's padding is: 1.5em 0.5em 0.5em Change that to: 0em 0.5em 0.5em

Also in index.css find: #tabs6
Delete it's height.

That is all I can do.

I'll give that a shot, and thank you!

I noticed that it works for you?

Thank you! Yes, it worked perfectly.

We made some minor changes to the theme, in case you'd like to have a look:

Repositioning the tabstrip buttons was the main layout change (we never use the news fader so we reused the space for the buttons).

A few icon changes and a few color changes, but that's about it.

The one thing I noticed is that when I get a popup PM alert, clicking "Okay" to open it in a new window doesn't work (no new window opens). Is that something relatively easy to fix?

I noticed that it works for you?
