you have to add it to the CSS file in the body { } area. if one doesnt exist then you will need to create it. Also, it will only work in IE as its an IE only tag and not an official tag PS: if anyones interested, i made a Scrollbar Colour Generator

you want it to look like this:
class {
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
}
body {
scrollbar-base-color: #000000;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #0B00E0;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #000000;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #1B00DC;
scrollbar-face-color: #000000;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #0009C1;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #000BDD;
scrollbar-track-color: #3F3F3F;
}
class {
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
tag: value;
} |
add the red part only. make sure you use Notepad, and avoid other Text editors as they may mess with the file.

It only works for scroll-bars within the forum like those which are included in the post editor when posts get too long, and you need to scroll sideways to see all the text.
Is there any way to make it work for the main webpage scrollbars,
i.e. those ones over to the right -------------->

As long as your entering it in the body {} part it should work for all. since body = the page.
Could you please either post a link to your forum or PM it to me so i can have a better idea of what you mean?
