Scroll down to the menu section of the guide and make your code look like this:
<style>
.menubg {
height: 30px;
}
.menubg a, .menubg a:visited {
background-color: #000000;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
</style>

These were great, I have just one question, I have a few backgrounds for the members to choose from and was wondering if there was a way to change the buttons to black with white lettering?Scroll down to the menu section of the guide and make your code look like this:

.menubg {
height: 30px;

Hi! Like everyone, I love this guide!
Just one problem on my side: I've been using the second background, and it doesn't show for IE users AT ALL. I know the rounded corners and opacity won't show, but I'm not even getting a solid colored background. I think for some reason it won't recognize the RGB colors.
I know you also said you don't really do IE coding, so forgive me if I'm bugging...but if you got it to show up for you (like in the screenshot)...I've obviously done something to mess it up >.<

First of all... the info center code on your site is from SI. It would have been nice for you to ASK for use of the code, rather than just steal it
I am using IE9 Beta, if you are using an older version of IE it might not show up.

Not too sure what you mean?
I mean, do you have a forum with the codes and theme applied live for everyone to view? Like they do with most themes and skins?

Thanks for the reply...I'm REALLY sorry about the Info Center code, I already removed it. I didn't realize it wasn't listed as a code here (totally my fault) but I didn't mean to steal >.< Again, I'm really sorry about that.

The theme in the end looks just as it does in the pictures, but it's not just a theme to download. It's a guide to show you how to make your own theme on your own forums, I just use random colors together as an example.

well at the beginning when you choose the colors you don't list each color like they do in themes (so category bg, then category text) and it's hard to figure out where each code goes
