Hi, my question's pretty simple. How do I make that shadow in the theme container, like here in MyBB Community Forums?
Thanks.

I maybe wrong but I think it's an image like you have to make an image with the shadow

If so, where do I place it?

i have to go out soon but when i get the chance i'll look into it

What image program are you using?

body {
background: #efefef url(http://mybboard.net/assets/images/bg.gif);
color: #000;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
font-size: 13px;
text-align: center;
line-height: 1.6em;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
}

div#shadow {
position: relative;
background: url(http://mybboard.net/assets/images/shadow.png) top left repeat-y;
width: 980px;
margin: auto auto;
height: auto;
}


Really everything you need to know is right in your face. It's not a secret. View source code.

I think they mean how to MAKE the IMAGE itself, not the code. If someone copies the background image, I blame you labrocca lol just kidding, bro.

The BG shadow isn't that big a deal to copy imho. It's very very common type of shadow file. The BG image is more unique but I personally wouldn't use it. There are other options for backgrounds.

Yeah ok, thanks Labrocca. Oh and btw, the links are broken.
