This question may have already been covered in some way, shape, or form... I need to know what the HTML is in order to make the comment bar/box a solid color instead of showing the background drawing.

I fixed your sig link

You know, I'm not sure what you're asking...
But this may be the answer:

If you put this code in between the style tags inside the head tags it will control the properties of your commenting box;

<style type="text/css">

input, textarea
{ background-color: #555555;
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 10px;
color: #CCCC00;
letter-spacing: 1px;
border: 1px solid #666633;
padding: 1px; }

</style>

Make it whatever colour you want, have a border with any colour you like, or don't have one at all, change the font style size to suit yourself.

Hey thanks for fixing my sig!!!

That didn't work for some reason... It could have been my fault though. If you go to my comic you will notice that a background image is there. What I'm trying to figure out is how to black out the comment bar... Maybe I should just take down the background image, because I've tried a few other thing and that didn't work either.

That's fine man.

Ok, put this in the Table data tag: bgcolor="#000000"

It should look something like this, eg.: <td width="400" align="center" bgcolor="#000000">

Make it whatever colour you like, and do it for any table data cell you want

For some reason I can't get this to work, and some of the DDer's are saying that they are unable to see my comic page??? I may have screwed up the template design. I've switched the template back to one that was already made. I'd really like to keep the template I use to have. Can you help me out? I know a little bit of HTML, but this is wierd stuff.

Ok, you've got heaps of tags left unclosed there so they'll never work unless you go through and close them... Font tags, tables inside of table rows... It's a bit messy.

I had a go at fixing it but I thought it might be better just to adapt it into the latest code for my Black and white templae, since that's what yours was based on anyway. Try the code below, you can put a BG image in if you like and it shouldn't appear behind any of the text.
IMPORTANT NOTE: click "Quote" first and only THEN copy the text between the "code" tags! That way you get ALL the code.
