Hello (again),
I was just wondering if anyone knows how I can add a text box of some sort to the center of my header?

Its basically so I can put this in it:

CarFreaksUnite.com
The No.1 Pit Stop For Car Fans!
find code similar to below in the header template
<div class="wrapper">
     <a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a>
after that you can add required code - something like below
<div class="textbox_upper">CarFreaksUnite.com</div>
<div class="textbox_lower">The No.1 Pit Stop For Car Fans!</div>
and add style properties for class .textbox_upper & .textbox_lower to adjust placement

CHEERS!!!

I have managed to wangle my way through the styling, its just the positioning i cant get my head around...

my header code is:
<div class="wrapper">
					<a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a>
                  <div class="textbox_upper"><center>CarFreaksUnite.com</center></div>
                  <div class="textbox_lower"><center>The No.1 Pit Stop For Car Fans!</center></div> 
					<ul class="menu top_links">
						{$menu_portal}
						{$menu_search}
						{$menu_memberlist}
						{$menu_calendar}
						<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/misc.php?action=help" class="help">{$lang->toplinks_help}</a></li>
					</ul>
				</div>


and my css stylesheet section is:
#header .textbox_upper{
  	font-size: 300%;
    color: #000;
  	text-shadow: white 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em;
    font-weight: bold;
  	text-decoration: underline;
 	display: inline-block;
  	position: absolute;
}

#header .textbox_lower{
  	font-size: 150%;
  	color: #fff;
  	text-shadow: black 0.1em 0.1em 0.2em;
	font-weight: bold;
}


I'm trying to get the text in line with my logo and centered.
I have managed to get the upper textbox inline but can't center it..
As for the lower textbox, i have it centered but not inline as it then goes next to the upper textbox..

Could you please take a look at my site (link in signature) and see what I mean and advise me on how to rectify it..

Much appreciated if someone could Big Grin
