Altering the copyright / version bar at the bottom

I'd like to use Dragon Scourge to create an modern city-themed game. The whole game layout has to fit a section of 590 pixels wide. For the most part that's not much of a problem, but I can't find any code for the the bottom bar. I'm guessing it's in the lib.php file, but that file has been encrypted.
Is there any way around this? Too bad the layout of the copyright bar has not been CSS'ed, the size and colour seem to have been hard coded.
Also, it's quite hard to translate the game in this way. There should be a language file which holds all the text, so one would't have to go through all of the code.

I think it all is within the SQL so look around there...

It's not. There is no layout information stored in install.sql, either. So it must be in lib.php

I think he was referring to lang stuff.
There is no known way of resizing the actual copyright bar.
I needed it bigger, but it is easy enough to add additional divs to a layout. resizing an untouchable one....
you're screwed unless you want to write your own Scourge from scratch? haha

I usually work in tables, but I guess I could look into your suggestion (although, at this time, I have no idea idea how to resize a div through another div?!?!) I'd also like to give the bar another color.
By no means do I want to remove the text - credit is given where credit is due - but it's too bad the author didn't think of this. He should have put these variables (width and color) in the CSS.

you can change the colour of it.
When i modified the entire css, the copyright changed with it.

But I guess I'm stuck with the width  This is a serious issue, at this moment I'd rather look into Dragon Knight with some mods instead of Scourge.

It think it's funny and obviously thought provoking. But I'm not sure why it is relevant to this topic.
Again; I understand why the lib.php is encrypted (If I spent many hours creating something, I would like to be credited too). But I would at least offer the option to resize and recolor the bottom bar, and the possibility to add something to it.
So if the creator would put up a new lib.php along with some CSS tags, it would make him look more professional and me a lot happier (why offer a game engine for modding anyway, if a basic thing like color and width is not moddable)?
I also hope the hardcoded stuff in lib.php is limited to the bottom bar and some general code, and that all language variables are in the other files. Otherwise it will be quite hard to translate it properly.

Can I ask why that is? Are you offended by my nickname?

Hahaha. I have better things to do than deal with people who think that shit is funny or likes to promote it. Personally, I think you are offending yourself and that is just plain stupid. And I have a short fuse for stupid people.

I thought up this nickname almost a decade ago and is simply meant to be funny and stand out next to generic nicknames (such as yours). Period. Why else bother thinking up an internet nickname and not use your real one. But I've never come around anything like this... Or a wanker like yourself. Who do you think you're talking to? Who do you think you are calling me stupid?
I asked a simple question and you refused to answer it because of the 15 characters I typed in when I registered here? How stupid is that? Get a life, fool.
I bet this is you:

/edit: If people want to see this image, they can look for it themselves, considering you took the time to care, so can they -
omg I wasn't far off
