Prolly have to wait until tomorrow, when they wake up and send me what I paid for.

Excellent! I love the FOH theme.

Thanks a bunch LFG, if you have a paypal account or something, PM me. I hate to see you pay for everything!

LFG there are ways(unless i'm thinking of invision forums) to make other skins for the forums

just basically have to search for it in the vbulletin forums that you have access to. They have a ton of different mods and what not. Only thing that sucks about Vbulletin is you have to actually go into the php files and edit them. So if you dont do something correctly, better hope you had a backup of the original file.

Not really, that is more true for phpBB.
For vBulletin, simple mods can be installed just by copying and pasting one file, and then go into the admin panel. Other ones require a bit more work.

But basically what I said in the message I sent to LFG is that I have experience with vBulletin and if he has any questions feel free to ask. -- and you can have more than one skin at a time, and allow users to choose what one they want.

I like the red/black.

There's a chooser at the bottom left for anyone who want to swap.


.. Now.. if it only had a really neat banner at the top.. :D

Thanks Niber for installing the new skins and doing all the tech stuff on this site.

Please check out the two new skin interfaces (fixed and variable width) under the new "style" pulldown menu on the bottom left side of the page.

I'm pro-blue and will keep the blue interface as the default for now.

Now I just need to motivate Elanie to create new header graphics for the new interface - need one for both the fixed and variable length skins.

Elanie, I was thinking we could use the same "flames" graphic we have now, since that should match the orange highlights in the new interfaces perfectly. Except, of course, edit out the blue stripe on the new interface graphics, since those are rectangular. Also, please keep the text EXACTLY like it is now, with the same font and lighting highlights, except change the text to the lightest shade of black that exists in the new skin, please make sure the letters are easily readable however. Please send me a couple designs and copy Niber when you can thanks

If too many people indicate a preference for the new skin over the blue, I could hold a poll I guess and let the people decide which to make the permanent default.

Thanks
