Great looking Skin.

Thanks!

[Hostboard]

This is the closest to one of my sites current skin that I have seen yet :D
The search thread drop down colors are off though...

[Dervish-Dancer]

How do I get it to work on the CMS too? Is it a bug that when I go into my user's control panel, the left sidebar still uses the default style, and the right side of the page displays no options?

[TalkTemplate]

Updated the sidebar colors.

I just fixed this. Please redownload it. The sidebar colors should be fixed.

Thanks for the support.

[RustyAU]

As Hostboard said - closest to my original style by far! Thanks.

That said - if you have a look here (http://www.gotrage.net/), I've got the "first time..." notice showing in YELLOW [original theme color?] and the left/right sidebars also appear to be in their original colors.

I've tried downloading and re-installing the style, but it doesn't appear to have done anything for me...

Ideas?

[RustyAU]

oo..also, the edit box on the Article add comment editor...

The black text on grey background is a bit hard to read, as are the black foreground icons on the grey background...

If you can point me in the spot to edit them I'll take a crack at it, but otherwise if you could fix it, it'd be awesome :)

Thanks again!

[Hornstar]

Yeah I like the colors used in this dark theme, they look real nice. I hope to see you keep it updated over time.

[mikeylikesitz]

great skin, just what i was looking for. Little problem with the UserCP / Settings area, all the options are pushed to the right and squished. I tried to find the issue but these new style vars take some getting used to.

[Radek Klein]

The skin looks great but it doesn`t work for me for the CMS. :(

[h.tindill]

They'res a problem with private messages, the side bar in the private messages area is default color, as well the PM list is either colored to blend in with the background by accident, i tried reinstalling, i even tried at your forums.

Please download the update. This has been fixed.

Update Instructions:
Simply download the attachment and upload the file 'darkvision.xml' to a new style and delete the old one.
No images edits have been made so you only have to update the .xml file.

I have just tested this on a demo forum and I don't get any odd occurrences when creating a new thread.
Try downloading the update and reinstalling updated style. A stylevars edit may have caused this.

Well, according to some of my members, it seems to work fine. Suppose this can be chalked up to a simple error in my cache or something.

If that's the case, it could be what you suggested or just a browser error.

Thanks for the screenshot. I'll look into anything that might create this error.
If you have any other errors, please let me know.

What I was experiencing was a long-standing bug on our forums that prevented things from showing if the "www." prefix was not applied. I fixed it, and, by extension, this error was also fixed.

Font colors have been fixed..

[Smokingx]

Nevermind. xD I didn't read enough.

[derfelix]

Very cool,
just downloaded and tested...one little problem though
the albums..
the boxes are nearly white.. and for example in the editbar the the title is very light gray..
the editbar background being nearly white.. you cant see the title..
but except albums.. it works great!!!!
F.

Forgot... the notices... i have a pending friedrequest... and when i check the notification dropdown.. its very very light gray text on white on white background.....
the mouseover works fine though...

I set the stylevar navbar_popup_link_background to #25292c and it fixes that.

[Hoagie]

This template is crap. There are huge design flaws all over this......IMO.

[ExplosiveGFX]

Not got nothing nice to say, then don't say it at all!

Good job, but OpenDNS is listing your site as down for me.

[Skyrider]

If I may ask, why cpstyles? Shouldn't it be uploaded in the "styles" folder?

[angedelamort]

Nice update.

I saw a problem on the login screen. The problem is when the textbox has the focus (password and username), the background becomes darkgray and the text color is black. It's almost impossible to read.

[Martyn1983]

Yep - same here, plus on post reply or new thread the Font icons etc are almost impossible to see as their on a dark background. Anyway of changing both these issues?

Otherwise not a bad style at all :)

[BoredOutOfMyMin]

Another EXCELLENT skin.

I am adding my own logo named banner.png prior to upload and then will not have to edit that.

[iamspookysdaddy]

This is my favorite style to date! Very Nice.
There is a difference how the text entry box in Internet Explore displays compared to Google Chrome. IE7 text background is white and text is white while Chrome displays correctly with dark text background and white text. :erm:

http://208.43.23.140/images/text_box.jpg

[Clizon]

Is there a way to change the color of the actual article, or put a background image on it? For example in the CMS, Front page, the article inherits the site background. Are we able to put it as a different colour? I can't find that variable.

[dporter]

Really love this style.

However, it is almost impossible to see the reputation and report post icons.

Can you please make it so these stand out clearly. Many thanks,

[TalkTemplate]

Thanks for the suggestions. I will make a new set of buttons shortly.

[EuT]

You might want to update in the stylevars:
- profile_content_friends_list_hover (currently I quickly set this to #333333 or rgb(51, 51, 51))
- navbar_popup_link_background (aka "Navigation Bar Popup Body Link Background Color")
Noticed that those 2 on the least are showing a white background when popping or hoovering ;).

As for the white background in the wysiwyg on IE, seems like a flaw in the javascript I guess, because if you switch from wysiwyg to normal then the problem is solved. Though the annoyance are the inputs of title and tags, black text in a dark-gray field. kinda hard to read and tested on 2 different monitors.

[spartan1123]

I very much like this skin but I can't get it to work in the CMS, where is this "pencil" button you mention?

[durdan1]

Is there anyway to change the text color from light blue to something else?

The pencil is shown when you hover over the first article title as an administrator. This allows you to edit the first article on the first page.

This would require a separate template release. I will try a silver/white font color instead of light blue. If you have any preferences, please let me know.

I'm just to used to seek out the problems and find what's the correct 'style-name' or solve. The reason I mentioned those two after 10 minutes of searching the white backgrounds with white texts before it :o. But I always keep the perfect solution for the designer, he/she always knows which colors are the best for the template ;)

How to do this if I am using more styles ? How can I set the CMS to choose the style that the user has ?

I mean I dont want just one style for the CMS

I have to agree with you, the text in the edit boxes is almost unusable, and since its a forum with alot of typing, my users have given this theme a thumbs down. I like the theme alot myself, and hope to see either this issue resolved or instuctions on how to adjust the colors ourselves.

The edit box in the standard theme is fine. For some reason in FireFox, its white text on grey, unless you click out of the box, then the text becomes black, until you click back into the box. In IE its always black. I originally thought, well I will just change the background of the edit box to white, but this then kills the firefox users.

I think if you just set the input text to be white, we'd be golden.

and yeah, the wysiwyg is white text on white background making it unusable.

Still I want to say, this is a great start for a theme and I really enjoy it. Thanks for all your hard work.

I believe the setting you are looking for is "inherited" on the style selection after clicking the pencil.

I appreciate your support. However, the white background is entirely different depending upon browser capabilities and various other factors.

The reason is because the stylevars are incomplete. vBulletin has not yet released a version where stylevars can edit the background. In the next update i will do what i can to edit the css templates so the backgrounds appear to be the same color across all browsers.
For now, some users report that changing the text editor mode may solve the problem.

Hello,

I am still working on it. vBulletin may be releasing a new version soon. Hopefully this will improve the stylevars so we don't have to rely upon the css templates.

vBulletin has implemented a stylevars system that makes css depreciated. That being said, the stylevars system is incomplete so it is very difficult to make necessary changes.

The skin should not affect widgets and avatars. Try disabling, then re enabling it. If it doesn't work, try installing another skin to see if it is indeed the skin's doing.

We haven't done any image slicing yet for the forums because vBulletin 4 is not in the stage where it can actively support such features.

This template is crap. There are huge design flaws all over this......IMO.

If your looking to change the light blue, the font color is: 76e4fb. You can either search for it in the stylevars yourself, or wait until we release this skin in white/silver font.

I believe you looking for the stylevars forumicon_size which is currently set at 16 px. Just adjust that to your preferences.

Notice: 4.0.1 has been released. Please expect a style update (for all TalkTemplate skins) within a week.

[joker2040]

How can I increase the size of the forum icons? They max out at 16 x 15 pixels right
now, and I want to use bigger icons, can you help me?

Edit forumicon_size in Style Variable Editor.

lol... guess I was a little slow on the typing.

Thanks Impulse for the great skin! My favorite!

I noticed that alot of people complained about the white text edit background/light gray text on the post thread forum in IE, but looks fine in FF. I think alot of people missed the comment about clicking on the A/A icon on the form to show the "correct" background color.

Wouldn't this be a Vbulletin bug rather than something that can be changed in the stylevars?

I love the template, but I can't really use until it's corrected as most won't know, or don't bother to click on the A/A button

Thank you!

Thanks for the comment.

Yes, we intend to fix the text edit problem in the next release (this week). vBulletin has not added this to the stylevars so we will have to make necessary css adjustments.

Please stay tuned for updates or mark as installed and we will send you an update once it is available.

[iyama]

I was unaware that images could do such things. We had a designer improve our banner into what it is now. I will try fixing this in the next update.

Its better to do right now. Before people get messed up with that banner. Most of them arnt making a new clean banner, or use that banner for new config to there site.

I don't know if the problem with textbox is solved (as for example title in new thread).

I have fixed used a temporary solution:
Template -> editor.css
added this at the end of the code:

.textbox {
color:#6E6E6E;
}


This is only a temporary solution, waiting for the fix.

We are testing this across multiple browsers, firefox, IE 8, IE 7, IE 6, chrome, safari, and opera. Unfortunately, there are no stylevars for the editor.css so we will have to make css edits for this update.

You can create your own image (png or gif), then upload it as a different name.
Then you can change the path to the image in your StyleVar
Imagepaths >>>> titleimage

[tazattitude]

I uploaded the new Darkvision. The only problem I previously had was the background on the post and reply form (showed white in IE), but I changed that myself.
I added a .wysiwyg style in the css file.
I overwrote the original file and this seems to be correct.

One thing I was surprised I didn't see changed was the background on the categories.
Figured this would have been changed to a darker color.

Still my favorite skin so far though!!!!

[Stellavision]

I just deleted the style then re uploaded the xml file to install the updated version but now the header / logo are not showing.
Any ideas?

I figured it out. The path to the banner refers to a jpg rather than a png as it does in the previous xml.

The categories were meant to be that color.

I believe there might have been a change that made the header login fields very dark (almost black) versus the previous. You can't see what you are typing in the username and password.

Very nice style!

Is it possible to make the Login-Area and the Editor-Area brighter?

Login-Area:
It's not possible for users to see where they have to click for Loginname and Password and the inputfontcolor seems to be the same like the backgroundcolor.

Editor-Area:
It's nearly impossible to see the Editor-Icons (Bold, Italic, ...) because the Backcolor is too dark.

Sorry for my bad english. I hope you understand what I mean.

The poll bars should not be affected. If they are, they are not due to this style (i have just tested it). Perhaps you installed a modification or addon that changed the poll bars?

forumiconbox_size - Changes the size of the space surrounding the forum icons.

Hi :) when I change the width of the forum it justifies to the left, how can I center it? I'm going nuts tring to figure it out :p

[FCDobbs]

For those who are commenting about the black text on a dark background,
I changed my Wysiwyg_textbody_background stylevar from #25292c to #65696c.

That at least makes the Edit icons a bit easier to see.

And, for creating/viewing a poll, I changed the Blockbody_Background from #1b1b1b to #3b3b3b.
Again, it made the creation of a poll, easier to see.

These changes might also make your login screen easier too.

But, I am in agreement with IamSpookysDaddy....Viewing the poll results is fundamentally offwhite text on a white background.
I am searching and trying different Stylevars, but can't seem to come up with the trick.

Any help ?

By the way Impulse..... Thanks... it really is the nicest one I've seen so far.

The problem is that the stylevars are incomplete. You won't find any stylevars for that. Instead the css must be edited.

Excellent skins!

I have downloaded and installed the origional one (with blue lettering) and now I uploaded the white version. It also works great, but both folders are called darkvision. This caused me a little confusion/panic when it started asking if it should overwrite files, lol.

It might be a little more "noob friendly" to have the folders uniquely named, it would also be easier if/when someone wants to remove one of the skins but not the other.

Just a little suggestion on an otherwise great skin!

Also just noticed...with it being in the same folder it uses the same image for the banner.jpg...It looks fine in my case but I'm sure it would be better if you could define a different banner for each.

[FCDobbs]

Impulse,
thanks for your reply regarding the "viewing of Poll Results".

I have searched all the CSS files high and low for something called "pollresultsblock"
(that seems to be what this style/class is called, when I look at the page source).
But I can't find it anywhere.

Any chance you could point me in the right direction, please ?

Thanks

[FCDobbs]

Impulse,
OK... nevermind.... I was able to solve it myself.

First, the CSS is not in any .CSS file anywhere.
Actually it is within a Template.
The Template is called poll.css.

So, let's Edit some of those settings.......

1. I want the border of the results box to be a little darker.
So I change the border from #c4c4c4 to #949494

From this

#pollresults {
border: 1px solid #c4c4c4;
padding: {vb:stylevar padding};
background: #f3f3f3;
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: {vb:stylevar padding};
clear:both;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
width: 98%;
}

to this

#pollresults {
border: 1px solid #949494;
padding: {vb:stylevar padding};
background: #f3f3f3;
margin: 0 auto;
margin-top: {vb:stylevar padding};
clear:both;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
width: 98%;
}

2. Now I want the results text to be darker for the top (header) of the results (which shows the total votes).
I change the pollinfo.blockhead.totalvotes color from
"color: {vb:stylevar body_color};" to "color:black;"

From this

#pollinfo .blockhead .totalvotes {
color: {vb:stylevar body_color};
font-size: {vb:stylevar font.fontSize}px;
display: inline-block;
margin-top: {vb:math {vb:math {vb:stylevar font.fontSize}*1.5}-{vb:stylevar font.fontSize}}px;
font-weight:bold;
}

to this

#pollinfo .blockhead .totalvotes {
color:black;
/* color: {vb:stylevar body_color}; */
font-size: {vb:stylevar font.fontSize}px;
display: inline-block;
margin-top: {vb:math {vb:math {vb:stylevar font.fontSize}*1.5}-{vb:stylevar font.fontSize}}px;
font-weight:bold;
}

3. Now I want to change the color of the text for the poll choices/descriptions.
I changed it from having no color defined, to having "color:black;" by
adding the "color:black;" line.

From this

#pollresults li {
width: 100%;
position: relative;
min-height: 2em;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
}

to this

#pollresults li {
width: 100%;
color:black;
position: relative;
min-height: 2em;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
}

4. Now I want to change the color of the text which shows the number of votes per
poll choice/description.
I changed it from having no color defined, to having "color:black;" by
adding the "color:black;" line.

From this

#pollresults li .votes .pollbarwrapper .numvotes {
background-color:white;
padding:0.1em 0.2em;
display: block;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
clear: {vb:stylevar right};
}

to this

#pollresults li .votes .pollbarwrapper .numvotes {
background-color:white;
color:black;
padding:0.1em 0.2em;
display: block;
float: {vb:stylevar left};
clear: {vb:stylevar right};
}

5. And I want to change the text color of the percentage for each poll choice/description.
I changed it from having no color defined, to having "color:black;" by
adding the "color:black;" line.

From this

#pollresults li .percentvotes {
position: absolute;
{vb:stylevar right}: 0px;
top:0px;
}

to this

#pollresults li .percentvotes {
position: absolute;
color:black;
{vb:stylevar right}: 0px;
top:0px;
}

And that's about it.

Fundamentally, the Poll Results now is nicely all visible.

Unfortunately, vBulletin has pushed the update. We expect to have the skin update ready as soon as possible.

I have the darkvision installed on my forum, and hope the update fixes the dark text issue. I really like this style the best of all the ones here.

[mrfarb]

I just noticed this - using IE8, if you use the "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" option the text in the Message box is white. If you use the Standard or Basic editor, the text is black in the reply box, and unreadable. Is there a way to fix that, or is it just a compatablility issue with IE8?

[znop]

Great looking Skin.

Thanks

vBulletin.com is in the process of fixing browser compatibility errors. Hopefully it will reflect on this skin in the next update.

Thanks for the support.

Anyone else seeing buttons to close a window for example with white text on a white button in regular DarkVision? Create Post > Click to Add Video > Buttons are all white on white. Also the New Mail notification window is blue background on blue text. If you mouseover it goes to black background & white text so it can be read.

Anyone know the buttons/css fields I need to look for on these or have these been addressed recently?

Thanks!

We will add this to our list of things to test. vBulletin.com is currently working on browser fixes and this maybe covered in the next update, which is why we chose to release the Darkvision update after vB 4.0.2.

Thanks Impulse for all of your hard work. Been using this on one of my sites since its creation. Keep up the good work :-)

I'm very happy to hear that. Stay tuned for the planned release.

[irtehun]

Can you at least Post a temp fix for the Login Font color problem? I have many users complaining about it.

[xDazedx]

Impulse8 - Please have a look at the memberlist area. The Posts column has a black background and black text.

Thanks!

Found another error, can someone tell me how to fix the background?

The screenshot is in the usercontrollpanel where you can choose you usergroups.

This would be fixed by altering the block stylevars. This fix is included in the next update. Stay tuned.

How can I change the sizes to reduce padding at the sides, ie more of a fluid style?

[Disi]

Hi there, i found another error in some posts, it is not in every post but in abou 1/3 of all posts i think.

The div seems to have the wrong size, any idea how to fix that, or if it has already been fixed in the 14 pages?

Cheers,

We are working on correcting such errors as is vbulletin.com.

Your html analysis tool looks great. May i ask what its called?

[Disi]

Your html analysis tool looks great. May i ask what its called?

Its called Web Developer Toolbar, its a addon for Firefox (you can get it here (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/60)), if you push ctrl+shift+f you can highlight each element and see the informations.

We are working on correcting such errors as is vbulletin.com.

So you dont have quite an idea how to fix that problem?

Currently i'm using your Template as main template on v-mc.net because it's one of the best, but as you sure can tell Community-Members are quite annoying when it comes to problems or bugs ;)

Cheers,

Disi

[Popa Andrei]

the xml from yellow is white to.:confused:

[Big-Pete]

What im after is more full width, not centred, also the header aligns more to the right and leaves the left with a gap.. any pointers would be great.. :)

Not a problem. Each problem is addressed when we are correcting bugs. When I say we are working on the bug, that just means it should be fixed by the next release. Until then, all bugs are considered "working on fix".

What im after is more full width, not centred, also the header aligns more to the right and leaves the left with a gap.. any pointers would be great.. :)

The doc_width is the stylevar for changing the width. You can add more to it if it is too short.
The doc_margin centers it. The issue has been fixed for the next update, but you must set left and right as "auto" for it to be centered.

Hope this helps.

[nigmo]

the xml from yellow is white to.:confused:

i confirm, the yellow zip is white

could you change it?

thanks

[mynameisbear]

Any idea when there might be an update? I've told my userbase "this Sunday" twice now, I just need to be able to manage their expectations. ;)

[Switch3130]

after updating to vB 4.2 i get a white page now and not the skin

[Popa Andrei]

update for vb 4.0.2 ?

[jbstans]

Installed and loving it, thanks!

[Bouncer222]

I really want to install this but.... update to vb 4.0.2 please?

[CrosseyedGamer]

this seems to be a hot skin. I had installed but had tons of errors in it and could not afford to wait for them to get fixed. I modified many of them myself with some help with others on vb.

I did the upgrade to 4.0.2 and many things actually seem to have worked out but, there are multiple alignment errors with many pages. Seems like some closing tags are wrong or missing.
Was also trying to use the yellow version which was never yellow. Just white or blue.

If this gets updated I would surely download and re-install.

[Bouncer222]

CrosseyedGamer could you please PM me your updated version, the old style I had for vb 4.0.1 , the author has totally dropped support for it and I'm stuck for my site with default vbulletin style.

Could you please give me the XML that you updated and the files attached?
Thank you.

[CrosseyedGamer]

I downloaded and attached. I am no designer or coder and this thing still has issues. If not for Lynne whom is all over the vb.com site some stuff I would have never fixed.

I posted some things over there as well as her tip on using firebug in firefox and doing the search templates is very smart for helping figure out what to change in the stylevars and css templates to get things looking right. As for alignment and coding, I haven't a clue.

I am checking into all the templates now and just reverting back things one at a time. I made a child of the main style and working from there. It is no fun when you are not fully trained on the product but for sure this move to VB 4 has been a learning experience.

If you come across any fixes, post them here so everyone can check them out.

good luck man.

[Bouncer222]

Yeah I gotta say Lynne is probably a god savor for everyone here :D

I checked out your site CrosseyedGamer since you mentioned that you still have issues so I checked it out to see how far you had gone in upgrading it before thinking if I should even request you of the updated version.

But I couldn't find any problems on your site, so I assumed you had finished upgrading it? Maybe you could point out the problems?

Thank you.

BTW.. since you downloaded the xml from your site, does that mean that it includes custom changes you made to your site in the templates? (not for the style to work, but to get your other personnel mods to work if you get what I mean, like custom personnel changes)

Thank you, will wait for you to respond and will meanwhile install the skin!

[CrosseyedGamer]

the only thing that was left now that I can see are some background changes. Like the view results on my poll. That was an original thing from this skin and noted I think in the first page of posts. there are a couple areas like that.

Before downloading my inbox and posts where all out of whack. I reverted two templates and they are now ok.

I am guessing this thing has all the changes I made in it. all I did was download the style. When it comes to some areas of this stuff I am not the smartest.

If there is a specific way to download just the core info you need PM me and I will give that a shot.

I don't have to many add ons as of yet as I knew better than that this go round. Going from 3.8 to 4.0 ,, let's not even discuss that. LOL!!

[Bouncer222]

Tell me about it, I think vbulletin made a mess on 4.0

Well it works perfectly fine for me, didn't notice any problems so far, but will let you know ASAP when I do notice anything.

apperently my index page is not showing up for some reason and instead shows errors, because I use vbadvanced, and I don't know if its broken or if some file got overwritten or what..

Here is the forum link you can check it out..
http://www.brotherhoodofgamers.com/forum.php

I noticed that on some pages, its hard to see the font though, so I might have to try to fix that.

Now I have to figure out what stylevars do what... whoever created stylevars must have been a control freak, they are so hard to figure out.

[Popa Andrei]

until the upgrade isnt made those who have vb 4.0.2 cant use this :|

[Bouncer222]

Hey crossedeyedgamer if you look on the usercp.php page and I believe on um... friends and contacts page which is actually part of usercp... there are a lot of backgrounds which are white, what stylevar is this? Or how to fix it?

Thanks.

[CrosseyedGamer]

the area with the avatar's and username is content3_background. Haven't looked into any others as of yet.
You are using VBadvanced with 4.0 ?

EDITED
I had to uninstall that when changing over from 3.8.4. Not sure I would go back.
I had similar issues until I removed all of it.

[Bouncer222]

yes im using vbadvanced. But what does avatar and username have to do with usercp?

the usercp control panel has white background.

[CrosseyedGamer]

my usercp isn't white.

The menu on the left is white which I actually fixed before the .2 update. I am trying to figure out where that fix is again. Most of this had me changing the CSS templates directly as some of the stuff is not in the stylevars or when changing the stylevars for one thing it screws up another. fun thing this VB 4.0!

We are working hard for a quick update release for 4.0.2. Thanks for your patience. We will send a notification to all "installed" users once it is out.

[Bouncer222]

I agree...this vb 4.0 has become very complicated, but hey it is also has some really good pros to it.

Thank you impulse!! Can't wait to update mine, It's very sad I have to now totally redo all my modifications because the old style author is not active anymore...hate when that happens.

No worries. We expect to release the update tomorrow.

[indie white]

I don't know if other people have had this issue, but when I uploaded this style, my password field disappeared. How do I fix this?

[LouisB]

I'm using this theme too. Thank you for your all your hard work impulse. No problems with 4.0.2 on my setup.

[NashChristian]

Anxiosly awaiting the update for 4.0.2...

:erm: Much appreciated!

[Popa Andrei]

y am waiting for this one to.
dont forget to put the right xml to the yellow archive ;)

[Kunai]

impulse8
thanks for this themen, but would you fix that "Group Area" it looks horrible.... white area with white it looks very stupid.

But your style is very good, you have to fix a little issues :D

[TalkTemplate]

Yes, that will be updated.

Unfortunately, the update is not ready to be released today, however we are working hard to release this ASAP. (Many css changes in vB 4.0.2)

[Bouncer222]

K. Well the one the previous guy released is pretty well upgraded except reply/edit threads is messed up, some white boxes such as calendar. and other tiny alignment issues.

Maybe you can work on top of his?

[NashChristian]

Yes, that will be updated.

I really like this skin, but I've had to uninstall it until you can get the bugs worked out of it.

Keep us posted...

Thanks.

[atgv]

+1 from me about waiting for 4.0.2

[SocialNetworkBuzz]

How soon til 4.0.2 release?

[jadeharper]

Very keen for the 4.0.2 release. Keep up the amazing work impulse8! :]

[Bouncer222]

4.0.2 anytime soon please?
Otherwise I will have to uninstall as I am using default skin until this gets upgraded...

[benny92000]

Thanks

[THE__DRIFTER]

4.0.1
If I download the standard zip the login and password section are too dark to see. I downloaded the yellow version and the white is what was installed. I like this theme but there are some issues right now that really make it difficult to use. Why have all 3 in a darkvision folder? Why is it not set to have a different folder for each in case users want to try each one? I know its a free theme so don't want to complain but these are pretty basic issues.

[TalkTemplate]

We are working on the fix. vBulletin has announced the login box color as a bug and plans to fix it on 4.0.3. We are working to make it work on this version. Thank you for your patience.

[Bouncer222]

THANK YOU!!

And please keep up this support... you have one of the best supported styles!!! 4.0.3 coming out soon....hope that you keep this up!!!

[Bouncer222]

Hey my usercp.php navigation on the left still has white background...
What I did was.. .I still had the one that the previous guy here posted before that he said he tweaked it to work with 4.0.2 but I never deleted his, I just installed yours as a new style.. and I guess it overwrote it and fixed some stuff...

Was usercp.php background also supposed to be fixed or something cause I still have it white.

[CrosseyedGamer]

I was just about to ask if whether or not everything was fixed and if you had did a clean install or merge.

Looking to check this thing out now!

[Bouncer222]

was wrong LOL nvm-still had old default style when thought there were problems lol
