I'm nowhere near ready to put together a custom theme for this site due to time restrictions, but to dump the default we can load several premade themes for you guys to choose from.
Please browse around this site and suggest some layouts that look good that we'll be able to easily import.
Please include a link to the thread you found the theme in since that is where I can download it from ;)

Anything that’s nice and light like the old place would be fine :)
I've always liked the utopia skin. Some of the other popular ones like Air and Surge are pretty nice too :)
could you track one down that feels nice so I don't have to go looking around :) I've got a big log of things to fix + my normal job to do.
Would it not be better to fix all the things members report? I think we should first fix the list I made up in the teamchat. it contains all erorrs reported by members and myself before making any other change..Quote:

seems as if more people are worried about the skin than the functionality which is the same old story around here....

yeah its possible, but We have to have either IPB2 or VB3 due to the lack of some important functions in IPB1. IPB has switch to a paid license system and if something has to be paid for the money will NOT go to somebody who continued to claim their product would always be free... THEN not only did they take out the free license but they also charge more for a product that is not as good OR as well supported as VB3.Quote:

Matt lied BIG time and its a company that I believe is no longer set up to be able to survive. I predict they'll go under within 18mnths.
Sorry but its this:

Just have carried on using the one we were using
LMAO you have a single red dot :) red = bad, grey = neutral
Yep, thats my 30%warn level. Once for pretending to be a mod by creating accounts with similier names. Once for a flame war with Jonno, and again for having an opinion in my signature (Which was delt with by a mod, but another team mmeber who doesnt really take to me well thought it would be a way to get at me. You ahve a black dot, what does this mean?Quote:

The only things that bother me about this skin is/are:
- That it is hard to tell the difference between sticky's and regular topics
- You can only go back to the top when you are at the bottom of the page(would be nice if every single post in a thread had a button that takes you back to the top,just like on the IPB skin)
- There's no list of clickable smilies (not a big deal but worth the mention)
That's all I can think of for now.
All can be fixed pretty easily.Quote:

and a few more things here
Thats red due to negative karma given to you by people :)Quote:

thats a really nice, easily read forum template
Don't think a lot of people will like that one because it's centered (remember the big fuss about the blue bars on the IPB board :confused: )Quote:

I'd like a really Dark Skin, just about anything goes as long at is dark.
Im not too fuzzy about When or How etc. since there' folks capable
of doing that allready.

Over all good job going fixing things as we go, I'd say.
Thanks for that.
:)

And can we have a nice xmas one for the coming festive season? please? pretty please?
edit: i actually really like the look of this one so far, maybe you can get in touch with the author? http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mo...ead.php?t=5813
I've been wanting a dark skin for awhile. Only thing is I like a black background with white letters.
Like the old Napster or genmay.com.
