I’ve removed the boxes and gone with a different layout construction for my comments. The example.JPG above has been removed.

Found it. Under /wp-includes/comment-template.php

div class=”Reply”

I put it in it’s own div class. Example:
<div style=”position: relative; top: -30px; left: 3px”> [THE REPLY DIV CLASS CODE]</div>

I hope that makes sense. Still have to move some other stuff around though, but I imagine it’s in that same area.

Added it, that did the trick. Thank you Curtiss.

Here is an example of what I’m talking about:

See how even within the same comment, it breaks up each paragraph into separate boxes? That’s what I would like to change.

Is that a section I would have to add myself, or is it already in style.css? I don’t see it, but I could have missed it.

I’ve reasked this question with the proper subject line, please see this thread for possible answer: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/changing-background-of-postmetadata?replies=1#post-2172952

I was wrong. If I edit that it also changes the background color of the area that reads: “Posted in Noosphere | Edit | 10 Comments ?” on the main page. :/

Not sure I went in there, but I added “background-color:” to “.postmetadata” in style.css

For example:
———-
.postmetadata {
background-color: #EDEDED;
clear: both;
}
———-

That did it, thank you sir.

Yeah, and when I rounded the corners of the footer, I had the same grey line across the bottom. Also, though the top (and the black I colored the corners to round them) will never end up on the white portions of the background, the footer will on different resolutions or shorter pages. So in the end it was best to just straighten the rounded sections of the footer. Kind of adds a little style to it too with the top being rounded and the bottom being straight.

I think that does it, thanks again for the help.

Actually, I guess I should also comment out the #page section to keep it uniform. I take it the #page section and #footer section I would need to comment out are the one’s on the same section as the #header I commented out earlier.

Commented that area out and it seems to have done the trick. Now I just need to adjust the footer image and comment out that section and that should take care of that area of redesign for now. Well, except for the fact that the black used in Paint.NET doesn’t seem to exactly match the black used in my background image, but I can live with that.

Thanks for the help.

I should state, that grey line is not in the image itself, so must be something in the code having to do with images.

Well, I’ve tried several solutions like moving the rounded corners of the white border out to the edge (which eliminated the grey on the sides) then filling in the top with black and the section outside of the rounding corners with black. This looked clean, but the spacing just didn’t look right between the top of the header image and the sides. In the end, it looked better just to leave the grey, but round the edges. As you can see, I’ve done that on the header, however, there is still that grey line I mentioned before separating this image from the background and you can see it sticking up from the rounded images.

How do I remove this?

Couple of issues.

If I trim the fat, so to speak, and delete the grey sections, when I replace the image files in /wp-content/themes/default/images/ everything is offset and misaligned, And the funny thing is, I can see the default blue header poking out from behind it (because of the misalignment).

If I edit the image in paint.NET and set a layer behind the original image, set it to transparent, then erase the area I don’t want, it looks just like it did before, only white. I left this attempt in place so you can see it. (If you look close, you can still see the grey over the white sections of the background. Not sure if that’s fixable.)

So I’m not sure which way I should be going. Trimming the fat and working on getting it aligned correctly, trying to get the background to fill in the transparent area, or coming up with a different line of attack.
