Hello,
I have a blue border around my forums. Is there an easy way for me to "remove it". I believe that simply means make my forums use 100% of the browser width and cover up the blue. I am wondering about this because it didn't used to matter, but now with the Google adsense ads the leader boards break out the right side of the forums when a visitor is at 800x600 resolution. I'd like to fix that myself if it's an easy tweak.

The forum is going to be out of whack, border or no border.
At any rate, go into the Main CSS of your style, and to table border. In the right hand box you'll see something like border: 1px solid #318164;
remove that and your outer border will be gone.

What do you mean? Are you saying this is a bad idea or will not help?

removing the border is only removing a border. If the board layout breaks for someone using 800 x 600 res, it's still going to do so.

Am I asking the wrong question?
I don't want the blue border around my forums.
Or at least I'm thinking I should reduce it 50%
Being the expert, what do you think?
The amount I break out right in the forum isn't much, less than that 50% gain.

I told you how to get rid of the border above ^
I'm not sure what else you're asking, lol
are you talking about the blue border around the outside of the forum boxes, or the border around the white part?

I'm a moron and don't know which of the 2000 boxes that mention border you are referring to. :(
I am talking about the blue that surrounds the site. The outer edge of the web page itself.

Wow. Welcome headers and the ads like that isn't very inviting.
Hrm, need to move that 468x60 elsewhere I'm thinking.
Everything looks much nicer at higher resolutions. hrm...

That blue that my arrows are pointing at is the background image. You'll notice that the higher up on the page you scroll, the darker the blue becomes... that's because it's a gradient image. You can remove it, but the skin will lose alot of its "personality" in the process.
