4.2 is kind of tricky, but I am working on it. But it is not easy, and the code below doesn't make it work. Read under the code posted for an explanation.

Here is what I have so far....

skin1/customer/menu_dialog.tpl (for the menu boxes)

{*
$Id: menu_dialog.tpl,v 1.4 2008/11/24 09:23:19 max Exp $
vim: set ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et:
 Mods - replaced entire contents to make rounded boxes *}
<div class="xrounded{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">
<b class="xtop">
<b class="xb1"></b>
<b class="xb2 color_a"></b>
<b class="xb3 color_a"></b>
<b class="xb4 color_a"></b>
</b>
<div class="xboxcontent{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">
<h1 class="color_a" align="center">{if $link_href}<a href="{$link_href}">{/if}{$title|escape}{if $link_href}</a>{/if}</h1>
<div class="content{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">{$content}</div>
</div>
<b class="xbottom"><b class="xb4"></b><b class="xb3"></b>
<b class="xb2"></b><b class="xb1"></b></b>
</div>

skin1/customer/dialog.tpl (for the center boxes)

{*

{if $printable ne ''}
{include file="dialog_printable.tpl"}
{else}
<div class="xrounded{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">
<b class="xtop">
<b class="xb1"></b>
<b class="xb2 color_a"></b>
<b class="xb3 color_a"></b>
<b class="xb4 color_a"></b>
</b>
<div class="xboxcontent{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">
<h1 class="color_a{if $printable ne 'Y'} title-with-sort-row{/if}">{$title}</h1>

<div class="dialog-search-sort-bar">
        {if $selected eq '' && $direction eq ''}
        {include file="customer/search_sort_by.tpl" selected=$search_prefilled.sort_field direction=$search_prefilled.sort_direction url=$products_sort_url}
        {else}
        {include file="customer/search_sort_by.tpl" url=$products_sort_url}
        {/if}
      </div>
<div class="content{if $additional_class} {$additional_class}{/if}">{$content}</div>


</div>
<b class="xbottom">
<b class="xb4"></b>
<b class="xb3"></b>
<b class="xb2"></b>
<b class="xb1"></b>
</b>
</div>
{/if}

There are several templates that use "lists" to get the items to display. I know that categories.tpl, and help.tpl have them, and manufacturers.tpl probably does also. Anyway, I had to "convert" the <ul>s and <li>s to use simple <br /> tags to get the boxes to close and display correctly. It "works" but I'm not happy with it.

You also have to add the classes posted earlier (post #82) in this thread to your main.css stylesheet. Post #94 deals with a problem in IE that I can't seem to replicate, so you might check there if you run into a problem.
