Most images are from different skins - IB is pretty hard to modify (skins) so I just did the general style and changed some images / styles.
Not sure about the css cause the general idea was to keep it like IB but adding a design note to it (which is missing at the IB default skin)
I know that there are spaces left / right but that's the idea. WIthout the space it doesn't look that good.
The style itself is done by me - the pics are taken from many different skins.

Thanks anyway, but I like my screen full.
Just the 76 year old eyes probably.
Posted by: TRshady
I like the space! :D
Think it looks great and much more stylish.
Dont worry people, you'll get used to it in due time ...
Or simply change back. :)

I like it :D
Posted by: LTJBukem
I really like it and agree that it looks more stylish. Must admit though, it caught me unawares. I thought my browser wasn't rendering correctly. :rolleyes:
Good Job, Well Done. :)
Posted by: MetroStars

Ah, cool. Im going to stick with the defualt.
When you say about keeping it like IP, then cant you jsut tweek the css to make it flow better with the top on the skin? Darker blue maybe?

I'm sticking with the new skin too. :)
Posted by: Formula1
Yeah i like this new design too, its pretty good.
Posted by: Agent Smith
Will we be seeing new skins in the future. That mabey change the origanal color from blue to something else. ;)
Posted by: 7thElement
There will be different skins like I said in another topic. It will just take a while since I don't take existing ones and style them myself to make sure they are not buggy.
Posted by: sharedholder
Good work , thanks and maybe you can give me a litlle help.I have this (http://www.kazaalitetools.tk/) litlle site and this IPB Board (http://data.forumhoster.com/forum_shared/index.php?act=idx). Can you tell me exactly what syles did you used ?Thanks again.
Posted by: 7thElement
most images are from the cali skin, styles are custom work but based on the IB Default skin. The wrapper is custom made to have a better way to control the layout (spacing / general look) to make it look unique.
Posted by: fr600
This new skin looks damn cool to me. Real good work...
Posted by: Gre1
I like the envelopes better than whatever that thing is. ughhhhhh.
Posted by: UKMan
The email notifications have stopped for the past day now - is there another problem?? Or am i missing some other message somewhere?
PS: i prefer the old design - my eyes just cant see the different "envelopes" - sorry, i'm an old gitt remember ;)
Peace

Your forum looks hella cool, nice work.
Posted by: tracydani
Looks nice but I also prefer a full screen. I also like the envelopes.
EDIT: I also would prefer it not be centered.

Posted by: Rip The Jacker
The new skin is more stylish and everything, but I also didn't like the fact that everything is centered. I also kinda liked the envelopes a bit more, don't know why. Anyways, good job 7thElement, but it looks like I'll be using the Default skin.
Posted by: Virtualbody1234
I tried the new skin for a few hours. But I felt I just had to switch back to the default one now.
Ahh... so much better.
Posted by: MagicNakor
I gave it a chance as well, but I'll be sticking with the "classic" KL skin.
:ninja:
Posted by: Adster
what default skin looks like the new skin is the default skin I'm confused :huh:
Posted by: Agent Smith
I'll stick with this till the next one comes. I am tired of the old one.
Posted by: Adster
I'm just trying to work out why in my control panel it had the default skin in it yet the new skin came up :huh:
Posted by: Agent Smith
You have to open the drop down menu and click the defualt again to get it.

I really like the new skin except for the fact that everything is centered
I find this most annoying :(
Posted by: MUSLEMAN
i agree but lets not forget that atleast now we have choises guys :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Posted by: 7thElement
Changed the width to 95 % instead 90 % - The effect still looks nice with 95 and people should not feel "boxed in" now.

haha boxed in i think if people feel boxed in on the board well i reccomend help :lol:
Posted by: 7thElement
100 % is bad because the effect of the different background color gets lost. Right now the effect comes out great because the missing %
Posted by: Rappy
i want a poll asking weather people like the new skin or not if well it ok with u :)

lol i was afraid you would say that, but you are right, still thx alot man, looks like you are paying us alot of attention, let me just say from everybody we appreciate it, oh and by the way if you celebrate, happy thanksgiving :lol:
Posted by: 7thElement
Poll attached.
I think the only problem is that people need time to enjoy changes. I personally love the new skin because it has style. I also hate the default IB skin cause 98 % of all boards use it.
The old one is "just a board" and designed to load fast. The new one loads fast too but has style :)
Posted by: Rappy
lol oh ok i felt like a dumbass for a second :lol:
Posted by: Red_Queen
I like it.Well done :)
Posted by: Barbarossa
I liked the old envelope icons alot better, but the banner is cool, however I'm sticking with the old skin because of the envelopes.
Posted by: Rappy
the new skin is too hard to understand yea and i agree thats the biggest reason im swithching back
Posted by: Adster
unfortunately the option isn't in the poll that i want
that is I'm so used to the old one so I prefer it
Posted by: Rappy
lol that would go under the im too old for a new skin
Posted by: Adster
lol that would go under the I'm too old for a new skin
lol yeah thats what I thought only I'm 22 and if thats old theres alot of accent ppl around :lol:
I don't mind the new skin just so used to the other one and i prefer the buttons there bigger to see
Posted by: Rappy
well im 16 so u are old :P yea i don't like the new buttons and well this skin is on every other board so i think the new one is just too much of a change
Posted by: SeK612
Its a cross between the Cali V6 skin and the default one. I like the center of the screen look but you should have used some of the default invision skins buttons - icons like the "post icons" and the "add, reply and quote" ones look a bit out. The banner at the top looks a bit weird as well (being dark blue compared to the lighter blues of the board). Still its good work and more then I could do. I look forward to seeing more custom skins like this in the future :)
Posted by: N£MO
No,it just sucks.
Posted by: REALITY
Well 95 is better but I still have to stick with the old one, more like home, warm and cozy, not that fancy newage stuff all the children like...
:P :P
Posted by: TRshady
Come on people, 7th said at first if you dont like it, then change back.
Yet some still persist on wanting changes to make it look like the original, where as some love the difference, the 90% was better in my opinion and if any other changes take place not much difference will be noticable. No need to apologize for going back to the original, 7th's given us a choice, so make your own, then they'll be no problems. :)
Great Admin Work 7th ..... :D
Posted by: Sparkle1984
Yeah I like it. :D I'm getting used to all the new icons down the side of all the posts (such as the icons for New Posts, No New Posts, Hot Topic, Locked etc).
Posted by: Guitar-Slinger
Its Helloween in here,
through the year... ;)
I dont mind about the layout or what kinda button it has so much,
the main problem is, its just too damn bright,
my eyes are bleeding.
Happy Halloween folks. :lol:
