Albus Dumbledore 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 i suggest you make the left hand menu a little bit larger so that "| Open in new Window | | Open |" fits on one line, or make it to where open is right below Open in new window.and give it some pictures, like a logo, and color. black and white is pretty boring Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_aggie10 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 ok thanks....is there anyway i can get that side panel off? i dont really like it....and how do i add color to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albus Dumbledore 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ there are a bunch of codes to add color to the siteto get rid of the side MENU, you need to go into the index.html page and either take off the<frame src="toc.htm"> or go into toc.html and edit to to have whatever you want in it.... but if you want it off you have to go into index.html and remove<frame src="toc.htm"> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
