Business style or not??

[Christos Teriakis]

Hello,

After years I think that I found a style that makes my mind to work on my site. It's not my own idea as I've seen this template for Wordpress but I loved it since the first eye catch. I do believe that has a professional outlook. So I spent some days modifying the default vB style. I believe that it has been good work.

Any suggestion is welcome. Give a look to forums too.

I like it. It looks clean and professional.

[Amaury]

I also like it.

On an unrelated note, you might want to name your forum. XD

Looks really nice, only things that doesn't seem right to me is the forumhead shadows on the left

whats going on needs some work also add a favicon.ico

Personally I would remove all shadows from the skin which would make the forums match the header.

Ochhh.... Do you know how long I was trying to find where on the earth is that stylevar? Me too, I don't like it. Actually I want to title to be align at the far left. But can find it :( . You as designer can you tell me?

Yes I know. I left it for the end (haven't finished the style yet). I'm looking for something related to coding eg <>, but till now anything that I found didn't shown well there.

Not only the shadow Sean, but borders and background gradient too. I prefer the clean white background and a dotted bottom-border only to sepeperate forums.

This is what I use mate to remove all those CSS shadows from certain skins. Add this to your additional.css template


* { -moz-box-shadow: none !important; }
* { -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; }

Or you can just set the shadow StyleVars to transparent.

hmm... I added it, I cleared the system cache but still all shadows are there.

By changing the Global Shadow Color to transparent removes the shadow from sidebar (maybe in other places too), but the forumlist still has shadow.

Ok... forumbits_shadow_color did the trick.

Can someone tell me how I can align the Forum category title to far left? Now seems that has a padding width there.

[Sean James]

Hey Sorry i missed a line on that above code for IE


* { -moz-box-shadow: none !important; }
* { -webkit-box-shadow: none !important; }
* { box-shadow: none !important; }

That is caused by this :



.forumbit_nopost .forumhead .forumtitle a {
color: #3B5998;
margin-left: 10px;
}


Add some more CSS to your additiona.css template to remove that left margin space.

Good.

Yeah, that's why I said shadow StyleVars, since there are a few.

[Christos Teriakis]

Going better and better. Thank you all !!

[Sean James]

No problem mate looks great, well done.

Thank you Sean. I've added your site on my forumhome sidebar. By the way, I've active my subscription for your Business (white) style but I was unable to make it work with fix width. Otherwise is very nice (that's why I bought it) :)

[Sean James]

Thanks mate much appreciated ;)

If you ever need help with that send me a support ticket via my site.

I will also link to your site over the weekend when I do some work on it.

i think your forum looks great, so no complaints there. i would however, recommend that you add screen shots of your vb mods while they are installed on a forum so people have a better idea of what they are buying. either that or offer a lite version of the mod.

Thank you for your time to give your feedback. Really appreciated. Do you mean tho change the cover photos with real screenshots? Real screenshots will be add soon in product's page. But I've thought to change the cover photos with real one, but I stucked in an idiot point. To use screenshots using my own template that I like, or to use the default vB style which is not looking nice, but is easily recognized?

Thank you. If you have a not big logo, I can happily replace the text link with this logo. It will be my pleasure if you can get even a single sale for it. I don't like affiliate programes as I don't like Google Ads. But if I can help, why not?. That's the reason that I never buy brand free version. I believe that the credits must be visible and go to whom deserves it.
