Blaze Dark theme

I was wondering if I could change the banner area to be black, while still maintaining the ~1/4" grey border like the rest of the forum.  My Banner image is black and it looks weird when it suddenly stops and it's grey to the right of it.  I'm not a coder, but my guess is that I would need a black narrow image that could be repeated?  I don't know if this would be hard/easy to do.

You can control the Forums Background for the entire Theme here:
css/index.css Find & Change
/* This division wraps the entire forum when a forum width is set. */
div#wrapper
{
margin: 0 auto;
min-width: 764px;
max-width: 2300px;
border: 2px solid  #540708 !important;
padding: 5px; ==> background: #161616; <== border: 3px solid #313131; -moz-border-radius: 10px; -khtml-border-radius: 10px; -webkit-border-radius: 10px; border-radius: 10px; box-shadow: 0 0 5px #000000; -moz-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #000000; -webkit-box-shadow: 0 0 5px #000000; }

Does that allow me to change only the color above the menu?  Sorry - I'm a newb...

It does / it changes The Entire Theme to your color , but not just the Logo / menu Area .. Can you make a Transparent Banner?..that would help..

I could possibly figure out how to make the text area between the 2 images transparent, but that would look like crap with a different color behind the text and then 2 black/red square images on either side.  That is why I was hoping to modify the logo area background just above the menus.

I did the images and background color in photoshop elements and then copied them into powerpoint so I could get the text customized the way I wanted it and then saved it as a png file.  Photoshop elements has very limited text customization (at least that I could find).

I still like the black better - I went ahead and changed the background to black - which looks good except for a strange grey bar that's poking out above the menu area.
