For Safari 6.1 users it's highly recommended that you download this theme's newest version.

Safari 6.1 makes this theme's text look thin and degraded.

The newest version of this theme corrects the degraded text issue.

I'm using chrome and it comes up like this for me:

Image Link.

Another member is using firefox and says it works fine for them.

Seems a lot of the themes aren't chrome-friendly.

You have pebble's plugin properly set up? You entered 760 into the new forum width field?

When you say a lot of the themes do you mean mine or overall in the library?

All of my themes except for Little Snowman , Bats and Acorn were all added to the library back when I first created them. I removed the themes and then recently added them back. This is the first I'm hearing about issues with Chrome not showing my themes correctly.

If you have added pebble's plugin, the version in reply #31, and it still isn't showing correctly, you might want to post in his thread on his forum. It's just that I have no knowledge of plugins and wouldn't be much help.

Pebble's plugin?

I added all the themes today straight from the library when they appeared as the newest added themes.

I didn't realise a plugin was required. I must've missed it when mass installing the themes on the forum. Will go do all that now and get back to you to see if that fixes all the problems.

Edit: You've no mention of a plugin or width change on your theme entry in the theme database. Thought you might like to know.

In the theme library if you look on the right side in the version updates section it mentions that the theme contains the 3 border images and to click the theme's help link for the plugin's link. This is the same for all of my themes that use a border around the forum.

If you look in the first post of all of my themes that use a border there is a link included in the info that goes directly to the thread I posted that details how to add the plugin and border. It also mentions for extra info and settings to see the next post which is where the new forum width amount is posted.

Let me know if that helps.

Ok, well I have now added the plugin and done all the things for the plugin RE the rainbow theme but I'm still getting the scroll bar that shows on the screenshot I linked to previously. The border images are all there, but the scroll bar in the middle of the page remains.

Do you have the plugin enabled and set so it's working with the Rainbow theme? This will be in the manage plugins section.

You could also try clearing out your cache.

Have you made any modifications or added additional plugins to your forum that would alter all of your themes?

The only thing I can offer is you could create an account I could use and make sure it allows for access to themes and plugins. Then I can look at your setup. Or you could ask on the Support forum since they can see things within your forum that I cannot.

I have cleared cache and still get the scroll bar.

As far as I know, I do not have any altercations or additional forum plugins that mess with all themes, but I may be wrong.
