Can be done, will require some editing of the templates tho. You can choose to have your navigation a different color set and the links within something like:<br /><br />.nav {<br /> color : black;<br /> font-size : 11px;<br /> background-color : #CFD7DA;<br />}<br />a.nav , a.nav:link , a.nav:visited , a.nav:active {<br /> color : black;<br /> font-size : 11px;<br /> background-color : transparent;<br />}<br />a.nav:hover {<br /> color : black;<br /> font-size : 11px;<br /> background-color : transparent;<br />}<br /><br />Then set the navigation area to class="nav" - the same can be done for other areas as well <img src="/forum/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />
