OMG, I love it!

[ukste09]

I second that, well done mate!

[Drocr]

Why is it not supported?

[oz_moses]

Superb effort BSMedia, fixes all the nagging navbar issues I've had and the colours are very close to our own scheme. Installed ;)

[realmadrid]

thanks.. very nice !.. installed

[VonDoom]

Why is it not supported?

Because its free. ;) Well Done!

[BSMedia]

Why is it not supported?

Because I don't feel like answering questions for people who don't want to learn on their own, or the obvious inane questions they ask all the time.

It's a free release, it's 100% working with 4.0.1 (latest vBulletin at the time of the release).

If there is a problem with my coding or skin design, I'll gladly fix and support that, but beyond that such as customizing to personal sites or what not, it's up to the owner to find someone capable of it.

[Bellinis]

Finally a skin that I really really like. It's simple, fresh and shouldn't be hard to customize!

Two questions though:

When I open the site in IE7, I don't see the login part. Is it just me? In FF I see it.
What do I have to do to put the login part back on top

Thanks for the bug report. I just tested in IE7 and can confirm the login box doesn't appear to be working.

I'll get a fix out soon as I can for it.

I would like to use this, but you don't have an images folder?

[BSMedia]

Crap. Sorry will fix when I get internet back at my house. It's been out since the snow storm friday >.<

[ek_col]

Blue Brown?? Link to download please... ;)

There are no images required for the theme, it uses the standard VB ones.

There are a couple of dark images for the background of the header. I worked it out, but it would be nice to have just a little more documentation.

The developer's own forum has a folder of images, which I am not sure if they are used or not.

Anyway, this is the best theme I found that matches my site. Well done and the aperture forum looks like it has potential!

That makes sense, there were two images hardcoded into one of the .css files, I found them failing with firebug.

Co-incidence that this matches your site, and my site... it's as if it has been built our national colours!

Incidentally, when I finally finish customising this I plan on releasing a green and gold style myself if BSMedia has no objections. Here's the progress to date: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/vb

it takes a couple of images that I forgot to release with it.

I've got the fix for the header (I moved the login stuff back up top temporarily) to support IE7. Removed GA code from footer :oops:
Cleaned up a couple unused classes.

New release should be out shortly.

[rlshosting]

Looks nice so far. Just waiting for the images.

[deadbyte]

Really nice looking theme, thanks!

[BSMedia]

There you go guys, updated with new features.

Edit: I'll also be releasing this skins "free of social media" features as well for those who don't want them even in the skin when I get time.

[carubmun]

No screenies :)

[BSMedia]

No screenies :)

Sorry forgot to upload those!

[carubmun]

Sorry forgot to upload those!

You are welcome for reminding you ;)

Its nice btw, good job.

[australiaforum]

I love the theme and the colors look nice. Not everyone on my forum is impressed though, with the bright green.:(


The skin will be ported to include additional colors as I have time.

* Blue-Brown
* Red-Dark
* Yellow-Dark
* Green-Dark
* Blue-Dark

So, I would definitely be interested in this and giving forum members the option to change the color scheme.

You can see my forum here: http://balipod.com

[BSMedia]

Uploaded the brown-blue.xml for your use. Let me know if there are any problems with it.

Nice Site australiaforum

[australiaforum]

Thanks, it looks good also. There are a couple of problems with it. The logo is not working. It would be good if it pointed to the same one on the blue-green template.

Also the title bars of the different forum sections is not showing on my site.

AdminCP -> StyleVars -> Image Paths -> Logo Image (toward the very end of it)


Also the title bars of the different forum sections is not showing on my site.

Screenshot please.

Thanks!

Excellent work BSMedia. thanks for this.

I am facing the same problem. Can anyone tell me how to fix it? I have tried working around the stylevars but in vain :(

What problem are you having? The images are included along with instructions.

[Boosted Panda]

My Brown-Blue looks nothing like the one on your site. I followed all the instructions however it seems as though the colors aren't matching up.

Try installing the green-brown as well, then setting brown-blue as a child style of it. Let me know if that fixes the problem, or a URL to your site so I can see it first hand.

Thanks.

[Boosted Panda]

It is not working.

yorkiechat.net is my site.

[BSMedia]

It is not working.

The only difference (I see) is my fbox color is brown and not blue. You can change that under the stylevars (instructions in first post)

With the release of 4.0.2 not being up to par of what it should be I've decided to stop creating skins and updating them so 4.0.1 will be the last version of this skin released by me.

The community however shouldn't be punished so I've marked the entire design as Reusable code with the following circumstances upon whoever takes this over:

A link back to http://davidmchenry.info in your release thread stating I was the original creator. Or even better leaving the link in the footer of the skin.
You don't charge for the skin, support, or modification of it


Farewell vBulletin!

[820Media]

Design247 has now picked up this great skin and have already made several tweaks to support 4.0.2

Welcome Social Media: http://community.design247.net/design247-picked-social-media-t78.html

This contains all the info you need to know :)

Sorry, to see you go. I thought your template was one of the better ones available here.

[naoba]

What problem are you having? The images are included along with instructions.

The header background( i suppose it is bg-top-tile.gif ) doesn't extend sideways. Plz refer neiunited.com/neiu/forum.php. I suppose i need to add the images on top of the doc bakground but am unable to figure out. I am sorry if this sound really stupid:o

Follow the instructions and it works fine.

This is AWESOME :)

<3 :rolleyes:

[combs]

Love the skin(prob the best i've seen), but it's useless and not functional. Full of bugs.

[bond010007]

i will try it thank you

This was built using 4.0.1

vBulletin is now on 4.0.5? It's not going to work any longer as a lot of the stylevar system underwent changes.

A member took over the project for this theme, not sure if they've continued to update it or not.
