Good job kall :D Looks like something nice if you like purple :)

[Wayne Luke]

Would be nice if the screenshots were bigger so we could actually see them. All I see is a purplish blob on the larger one. Can't see the buttons or what the text looks like.

[Megatekno]

Thank Kall

Okay, the name is disturbing (you already know I love the style tho, Kall, so I'm not gonna massage your ego any more <grin>) my daughter has a "one eyed, one horned, giant purple people eater".. or her "purtle peetle eater" as she calls it :D

Sir, yes Sir! How are those ones, Sir?! ;)

@Azh: The Sparkley one named it. I can't argue with Her. :)

Much better. Thanks.

great style, great images

I merged this into my root style by mistake, wanted to kill myself... but its not your fault ;)

are you going to finish the images, like the move thread one thats using standard? just curious as those are great

"forum contains new post" and those other ones in the bottom are all phrase-hardcoded

my "forumhome" tries to display the forum title and description and a little square appears in the index.php where it should be

"welcome <username>" just shows the username for some reason, no welcomes or other stuff.

I have just updated the .zip .. download it, extract it. The style xml file is added through your Styles and Templates - Download/Upload Styles function.

The product is imported in Plugin Manager.

[Aleah]

???/ oh Cra :ermm: i havent a clue . Where do I extract to ? and then what . any way you can walk me through this step by step or any tutorials on how to do this ? id be eternally grateful :nervous:

[kall]

OK.

1. Download the .zip attached to the first post in this thread
2. Extract it somewhere on your PC
3. Upload the /steelpurple folder inside your /images/ directory
4. Go to your AdminCP - Styles and Templates - Download/Upload Styles. Browse to the location you extracted the .zip to and choose steelpurple3.5.3.xml. Upload it.
5. Go to your AdminCP - Plugin Manager - Import Product.

Directory - a folder on your website.

Nothing to do with the style editor on the admincp.

[Aleah]

how would i find that directory on my website ?Any clue . Does it have anything to do with my hosting ? I just started it up a few days ago . have no clue where it could be ?

I feel like a total a** for asking all these questions, but I seriously need help or my site will always look drabby default style :disappointed:

[PhanTuhC]

log into your ftp. you should see a forums folder. then inside the folder click images. then upload the folder "steelpurple3.5.1" there.

[PhanTuhC]

Did you uploa the images to the path specified?

Have a look at the properties of the broken images and move the steelpurple folder to the right place. :)

[UncoderMom]

Ooooooh very sneaky! lol Thats what I get for assuming that it installed in the same path as the others *smacks forhead*

[UncoderMom]
