So I recently got speaking to one of the admins on the comp board about sorting out the comp lists (ending soonest etc) and I couldn't figure out how to do it. I tried explaining which buttons/links I had on the site I'm seeing and they said it doesn't sound the same as what they see. So I sent a screenshot and they said it's definitely not the same as theirs.. I can't figure out why or how to change it? Any help? :huh:

    I can't see that it looks any different to mine. The BG's may look different to ours as they have different accesses to us.

    Same here as thingamaBob. It looks pretty much the same as mine.

    If you click on your avatar in the top-left of the screen then click on 'Your Profile' > 'Your Settings' > 'Edit Options' then scroll down to Forum Skin and change 'Use Forum Default' to 'New masthead, fixed width', you'll change the appearance to what a lot of people use.

    You can then get the 'Green' forum to fit the page by doing the following;

    have you read the Comping Guide (link in my signature) for tips on sorting the board? or there are various threads on the subject in CCC if you search :)
