Default [RESOLVED] Editing "orange dreams" skin

My board URL is BA Mahjong Dojo

In the topic view, the poster's info is shows at the top of each message. How do I make this show at the side of the message, like in the default Invision skin?

Admin CP > Skins & Templates > HTML Templates > Manage HTML > Topic View Section > Expand to Edit > Post Entry > Edit Single

This:

Code:
<!--Begin Msg Number {$post['pid']}-->
<div class='tableborder'>
    <table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3'>
    <tr>
     <td class='rowh'>  
<table><tr><td><a name='entry{$post['pid']}'></a>{$author['avatar']}</td><td><span class='{$post['name_css']}'>{$author['name']}</span><br />{$author['title']}</td></tr></table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
      <td valign='middle' class='darkrow4'>
        <table width='100%'><tr><td><img src='{ibf.vars.img_url}/page.gif' />&nbsp;<span class='postdetails'><b><a title="{ibf.lang.tt_link}" href="#" onclick="link_to_post({$post['pid']}); return false;" style="text-decoration:underline">{ibf.lang.posted_on}</a></b> {$post['post_date']}</span></td><td>
<div align='right'>{$author['addresscard']}{$author['message_icon']}{$author['email_icon']}{$author['website_icon']}{$author['integ_icon']}{$author['icq_icon']}{$author['aol_icon']}{$author['yahoo_icon']}{$author['msn_icon']}</div></td></tr></table></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td width='100%' valign='top' class='{$post['post_css']}'>
        <!-- THE POST {$post['pid']} -->
        <div class='postcolor'>{$post['post']} {$post['attachment']}</div>
        {$post['signature']}
        <!-- THE POST -->
      </td>
  </tr>
    <tr>
      <td class='darkrow3'><table width='100%'><tr><td><b><a href='javascript:scroll(0,0);'>Top</a></b></td>
         <td><div align='right'><b>{$post['report_link']}{$post['delete_button']}{$post['edit_button']}<a href='{ibf.script_url}act=Post&amp;CODE=06&amp;f={$ibforums->input[f]}&amp;t={$ibforums->input[t]}&amp;p={$post['pid']}'><{P_QUOTE}></a>
      </b></div></td></tr></table>
      </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
 </div><br />
is what you have.

Replace it with this:

Code:
<!--Begin Msg Number {$post['pid']}-->
<div class='tableborder'>
    <table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3'>
    <tr>
     <td valign='left' class='darkrow4'>  
<a name='entry{$post['pid']}'></a>{$author['avatar']}</td><td><span class='{$post['name_css']}'>{$author['name']}</span><br />{$author['title']}
      
        <table width='100%'><tr><td><img src='{ibf.vars.img_url}/page.gif' />&nbsp;<span class='postdetails'><b><a title="{ibf.lang.tt_link}" href="#" onclick="link_to_post({$post['pid']}); return false;" style="text-decoration:underline">{ibf.lang.posted_on}</a></b> {$post['post_date']}</span><br /><br />
{$author['addresscard']}{$author['message_icon']}{$author['email_icon']}{$author['website_icon']}{$author['integ_icon']}{$author['icq_icon']}{$author['aol_icon']}{$author['yahoo_icon']}{$author['msn_icon']}</td></tr></table></td>
      <td width='100%' valign='top' class='{$post['post_css']}'>
        <!-- THE POST {$post['pid']} -->
        <div class='postcolor'>{$post['post']} {$post['attachment']}</div>
        {$post['signature']}
        <!-- THE POST -->
      </td>
  </tr>
    <tr>
      <td class='darkrow3' colspan='3'><table width='100%'><tr><td><b><a href='javascript:scroll(0,0);'>Top</a></b><div align='right'><b>{$post['report_link']}{$post['delete_button']}{$post['edit_button']}<a href='{ibf.script_url}act=Post&amp;CODE=06&amp;f={$ibforums->input[f]}&amp;t={$ibforums->input[t]}&amp;p={$post['pid']}'><{P_QUOTE}></a>
      </b></div></tr></table>
      </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
 </div><br />

Pyrovex.forumer.com, I bought it and forgot about it. I had to change mine to figure out its code.

The Orange Dreams skin was one of the ones in list Admin CP > Skins and Templates > Select a Skin.

Hey Weirdo, I'm sorry to say, but it's not working out for me. When I used your code, I got this:
http://bamjd.fileave.com/troubleshooting/post1.gif

However, if I go to Admin CP > System Settings > General Configuration and change "Use Safe Mode Skins" to No, then it looks like this:
http://bamjd.fileave.com/troubleshooting/post2.gif

which is what I'm looking for, though I don't necessarily need the Member No. or Joined Date. Also, there is another side effect of setting "Use Safe Mode Skins to no:" the forum banner turns into something called "The Annex" and it pictures some sheep smoking cigars. What's up with that?

Bah, nevermind. I used your code, and all I had to do was change one of the <td>'s into a <br>. Thanks a lot! You rock.
