  The Web 2 theme is superb but I need a little help please.
  I have changed the following lines of the 3col setup of the /screen/basemod.css stylesheet to
  
  /**
  * 3col template
  * 123 is the default layout
  * @subsection layout-template-3col
  */
  
  /* #col1 is the main column */
  .bt_3col #col1 {
  float: left;
  margin: 0;
  width: 505px;
  }
  .bt_3col #col1_content {
  padding: 0 10px 0 0px;
  }
  
  /* #col2 contains the left blocks */
  .bt_3col #col2 {
  float: left;
  margin: 0;
  width: 140px;
  }
  .bt_3col #col2_content {
  padding: 0 1px 0 1px;
  }
  
  /* #col3 contains the right blocks */
  .bt_3col #col3 {
  float: right;
  margin: 0;
  width: 320px;
  }
  .bt_3col #col3_content {
  padding: 0 0px 0 0px;
  }
  
  The rest of the stylesheet remained the same.
  
  This changes the sizes of the blocks on all pages except the homepage.
  
  Please can anyone tell me how to change the homepage to the same as the rest of the pages.
  
  Kind regards
  
  Terry

  Hey Terry!
  Well, with the BlankThemes you have to take in account the configuration a lot.
  
  Web2 uses the grid body template for the homepage, that's why your changes to the 3col doesn't affect it. Then, go to the /templates/modules/home.htm file and choose the '3col' body with the layout that you want for it. The master configuration is 3col/123_nc (it's in the /templates/config/themevariables.ini values) and you can customize the layouts for your site sections from the /templates/modules/*.htm files
  
  To be more familiar with the body templates and layouts check this wiki page.
  
  Glad you like the Web 2.0 theme

  Thanks nestormateo, problem solved
  I have noticed that the theme does not resolve as well in IE7 although it is perfect in Chrome - Safari and Firefox. Is there a fix for this?
  Kind regards

  Uh
  probably some issues from the patch files... as we discovered recently for the GreatOutdoors theme... try renaming the /styles/patches folder to something else and refresh your browser. If it solves the issue, we may delete the contents of those files or simply disable them, removing some lines of the bt_htmloutput plugin.

  I also see these issues with IE7.
  Its not just with the web 2 templates it also effects this site (blanktheme)
  What I see in IE 7 is the Forum block is pushed down below the Right Hand side Column right down to just under the Theme Switcher on the rhs.
  
  It also completly renders the theme modify unusable in ie7 (module=Theme&type=admin&func=modifypageconfigtemplates&themename=subietheme&filename=general.ini) this shows on what looks like 1 column on the left hand side

  Uh
  Well, it's my fault because I suspect that I didn't care too much about the IE patch files, and sometimes they have conflictive CSS rules that may cause those problems. Have to review its contents (/style/patches subfolder) and probably deleting their contents can fix the issue
