how to change colors of columns?

I want to change the the color of the colums in the "replies" and "last post by" columns. I've been thru all of the stylevars and I can't see where to make this change. Does anyone here know how? Thanks!

You may have to change the CSS - .threadbit and .threadbit .alt in the threadlist.css template

Did you read Don's blog here and download the StyleVar Dictionary and the Skinning guide ? vB4: Skinning Your Forum in 10 Easy Steps (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/entry.php?2373-vB4-Skinning-Your-Forum-in-10-Easy-Steps).

I believe either it is currently unfunctional or they haven't added it to stylevars yet because I have encountered the same problem and have not found a solution. =)

I would like to do this also but haven't found where to do so yet. Anyone know how to do this?

In threadlist.css, you have these lines:

.threadbit .alt {
background: #f2f6f8 {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundImage} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundRepeat} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionX}{vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits} {vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionY}{vb:stylevar threadbit_background.backgroundPositionUnits};
}

It's hard coded right now just change the #f2f6f8 to the color of your choice.
