My Skin

Post by The Colonel » Tue Jan 15, 2008 9:22 pm

I have a custom skin that I use for my forums, I put it up for public use on Freeforums, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who uses it. You guys can add it to your style list for free if you want, it's fine with me.

If you want to see it go here.http://cubbage.freeforums.org/index.php

No offense, but it's not that any different from the forum in here. It has HL2 references which is cute really. But I think it wouldn't be suited for this type of forum.

I might've set the default to something else... did it look like little whitish orbs spinning in the corner?

If someone could direct me to a way to create these types of stylizations/ skins. I'll try to make a Wc3 themed one. I think we could have a contest about this. Honestly I just think these banners and color theme is unacceptable.

There are already WC3 ones in the PhPBB file thing.

The current one's cool. Only bad thing is notifying about new replies, but that's not because of skins.

Yeah, white text+black background hurts my eyes. Black background with red letters is readable, but it makes us look Gothic, and I don't think all of us want that. I think a dark gray background with lightish blue text would work fine.

How 'bout we stick with this one because it's nice and we pressure Crev' for another option a few weeks from now, when all the forum creation stuff isn't going on? Seriously, this just took a day or two to get used to, now I like it.

Yes, I'm fine with this, it's just that other people aren't. A lot of forums I go on have this skin, and it's fine.

And Loki, I've been on a forum with that color, and it actually looks ok. It's not bright blue, just light soft blue.
