how can i use css to spruce up my tag board?

Have you looked at the CSS tutorial (http://www.lissaexplains.com/css.shtml) ? Or perhaps these threads (http://www.lissaexplains.com/forum//search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=54225&sortby=lastpost&sortorder=descending)?

What are you looking for exactly?

well i was told u can use css to make a tag board look better like the borders,text and background color

... That's what Epo just said. Look at those links. They tell you how to do that. Come back for more help after you've already tried it yourself.

ok i will

Well, if you want to look at my tag board for ideas its at sizzer.pitas.com ... I changed the font, background, etc... I rather like it :)

If you have a tagboard from a site where you signed up they mostly let you change the stuff that is INSIDE the 'box' where the messages appear. for the fields and button you need to use css

use this:

input { here all the codes such as border width etc. }

change the bold text into attributes you want to add to make your fields and buttons look better. put the above code INTO your stylesheet
