NEW BOARD STYLES

Think Differently

NEW BOARD STYLES

Postby Scott » Mon Sep 19, 2011 8:39 pm

We have opened up the board to allow everyone to choose their own template. So far I have 4 available so I thought Id kick things off with those.
We plan to add a couple more over the next few weeks.

To select a template :
go to your User Control Panel and select Board Preferences.
Look for a drop down box titled 'My Board Style'
Select whichever one you want and press 'Submit'

Once you re-load the board you will have the new template.


The templates are :
BLACK

SUBSILVER2 - The old template!

Black looks good.

Could the text be made to stand out a little more?

It looks a little lost in so much black & as S69 posted I can see the new post button at the bottom of the page but its not lighting up when cursor travels over it.

S69...The new posts tab on the red/white board is located at the top of the forum about 1 inch under the tabs/buttons "board index, search, members" etc. It just says "view new posts" its only text no buttons.

Another fine piece of work Scott. Thanks for the hard graft as usual :prayer:

Guys we have another 2 or 3 styles to still go up so they'll be a little more to choose from & something for everyone`s taste.

If you can just let us know of any bugs or issues you come across in each style it'll be appreciated & we'll get them fixed asap.

Thanks :grin:

maybe try the text more white.
the cursor over the button thing requires another image, not sure if there is one and its not loaded or if the template just doesnt have a mouseover on that. If not I can make one.

Has to be the grunge one for me so far
i visit one or two websites that are black and although they look good it becomes a strain on the eye after a wile
the red /black looks a bit cheap and out dated to me but maybe I'm just getting fussy in my old age :-k

Thanks for the feedback.
