Hi Christian,
Thank you.
I saw that before and tried uncommenting the border - doesn't seem to work with newer versions of mediabase?!
It is applied to the search field only, so that it gets about 300 px wide and with the grey border

looks very strange ..
but thanks anyway. Maybe someone from support / Developers has an idea.
It's not that important - it's just: i worked over 10 hours with Photoshop and Notepad++ to adapt the LCD Skin to my Netbook. Everything is now really, really cool -> and then i see the columns. Grrr! Well, as a sysadmin i should know about software always having this kind of surprise - "it's not a bug, it's a feature!" ;-)
