"Insignia" Developed for vBulletin 3.5

[b6gm6n]

Hi..

This is a skin developed for vB3.5 and onwards! - it's AJAX friendly and hack friendly to! - It's a free skin based on my solidsteel skin.

Install directions are included in the zip as are all fonts, psds etc...

Enjoy!

Nice style. :)

[Dream]

great style, I didnt upload vbulletin_editor.css and all is well, just a little weird

[Azhrialilu]

Lovely, thanks for sharing it :D

[smashingyoungma]

Very nice. :)

[Kirk Y]

Oooo... sexy! I think I'll use this on my board.

[Wayne Luke]

Very nicely done.... Have to keep hoping for a style with a black background though.

[sensimilla]

too nice to be truth... thanks alot!

[Amyitis]

Installing now. You rock :cool:

[Blootix]

THANK YOU SOOOOOO much!

[shiva]

Very nice style. Only thing is the psd didn't have the guide lines in place, so a bit of a pain to modify the header, especially as the width and height of the images are coded in the style.
Very nice colors, nice cool elegant style.

[Stallyon]

I love it. And I am very picky.

[theArchitect]

Very cool.

*theArchitect clicks install*

[ExpertDomino]

thanks for this awesome, skin.......... *installs*

[XtremeOffroad]

Very nice, Thanks.
Clicks Install

[Tony G]

That's a nice style, especially for a free one, thanks for sharing. :)

[Blootix]

Can somebody please help me edit the header without making it messed up?

Every time I use the psd to edit "Insignia" to my forum name, there's a crack between the header bars.

Either use a smaller font, or shorten your forum name! :)

[Sleepyk]

nice style although i havent got vb 3 yet it seems these 3.5 styles better than all others

[RMS-Chef]

Well done, I like it.

[b6gm6n]

Just to let you know, i will update this skin to 'Gold' along with the release of vB 3.5 Gold when it's ready, this is to ensure compatibility and stability, cheers

[KuRi]

allthough this style has no border graphix used as standard, there are border graphics in the images folder... is it ok to apply these brder graphics to the style?

yes of course Kuri...do as you wish with the skin, cheers

[KuRi]

i only ask as this makes it look very simelar to your "solid steel" skin

[b6gm6n]

i only ask as this makes it look very simelar to your "solid steel" skin

yeah, it's a simple table surrounding the vBulletin sections using the extra graphix, but updating those graphix (or adding tables with the extra graphix) was a bind for hacks n stuff... can be done, but often i would get questions like "the style doesn't look right with my v3 arcade" rather than sorting that out simply design a skin which looks and works well with a multitude of mods & plugins. :)

-b6

[KuRi]

oh rite.... i have no problem adapting my mods and plugins templates etc...... the only trouble im having is adding the borders to the showthread template.... grrr

[b6gm6n]

i can give you the border psd's and code i used if you want...?

-b6

[KuRi]

could you? that would be brilliant thankyou so much

[b6gm6n]

Kuri, check the attached, it's the xml style for solidsteel, take the template code when you install it (designed on 3.0.6) also check the psd's for the border.

cheers

[Gizmo5h1t3]

looks nice, cant understand why i have this problem with the profile boxes all being ut of lne, this is the only style i use that has this problem, any ideas how to fix it??

[b6gm6n]

I don't think it's nothing to do with my skin, it's something to do with that 'Additional info' box/hack thing i can see your using for profiles, never seen that before, you have it collapseable, must be the table code for that mod buggering things up

-b6

[mangacars]

I dont have a nav bar at the top, here is a screenie

Edit: But I have 1 on every other page

[KuRi]

check your forumhome template and make sure $navbar is in there.
Should be bellow $header

[mangacars]

Yeh its there, I also tried copying parts of codes from my orig style and still dont work

[b6gm6n]

Edit: But I have 1 on every other page

thats un-usual, perhaps your making this a child style which uses a custom forum home template? i dunno, try installing again.

[Snort_2005]

I love this skin.. Very simple and pleasing on the eyes.. way to go.. May I ask you one thing though. Can I get the PSD for the borders as well? (as well as information about the newborder_XX.gif and replyborder_XX.gif and how I can make it look good if the "New thread" button doesn't show up. o.o

nice witty reply mate....

as i suggested in my previous post, i was asking for help in where to check, settings etc to solve this.

so drop the sarcasm, and provide a suggestion as to where it might be?

thanks.

can you show me your postbit_legacy template... i think its a problem with that table you have your user info in

[b6gm6n]

nice witty reply mate....

Thanx, right, so you still have a problem with your postbit? as Kuri indicated looks like your using the legacy postbit, not only that it seems you have some hacks installed which might play a big part in why it's not looking right compared to the other 30+ installs without problem.

If you'd like to PM me your site addy and a test login maybe i can fix it for you? how that for service?

[VaaKo]

does this skin work with RC2?

[Gizmo5h1t3]

yep, works fine, just i seem to have an issue with the display.......

no one else has had any probs tho...skin is real nice

[Blaine0002]

[Eradication]

Thank you for this style, I love it :)

[Blaine0002]

why is this happening?

[Gizmo5h1t3]

why is this happening?

http://www.crossingcentral.com/post.jpg

what?


what are we looking at??

[Blaine0002]

why is the background of the box white/greyish? in the screenshots its darkblue.

[b6gm6n]

WYSIWYG, Text Editor Control Styles (select all style options) background colour

-b6

[Blaine0002]

and where is this?

[b6gm6n]

If you select 'all style options' for my skin you'll see near the bottom of the page the 'Text Editor Control Styles' section... just edit the hex in there...(background colour)

-b6

[Blaine0002]

ah! its perfect! thanks :D

[FleaBag]

Not read past page 1 but would just like to add that this style is excellent! Great balance of design and colour. :)

[tazB.ca]

Thats awesome.

[syburn]

If I upload the following below and also do the same for your I bulletin, what will happen??? looks like a problem having both installed!

Upload the vbulletin_editor.css file to > forums > clientscript (backup your 'vbulletin_editor.css')

[Kingzor]

OMG Thank you this is a awesome style, looks sorta like one iv seen for ipb but i dunn0 still cool.

Edit:
Before i install, will this work with vb 3.5.0 gold?

Just adds a border colour to the editor which matches the style

Hi b6gm6n,

just tried to import the xml file and it tells me that insignia is for 3.5 beta, but now i have 3.5 latest and it will not let me complete the upload.

What to do?

Will you update it?

Thanks.

Select 'ignore style version' when importing! :)

[kallelm]

I know I will get the idiot badge of the day, but bare with me as I am very new to this.

I have figured out my earlier mistake and editing the new problem

I went inot the style manager and changed the paths to the images/insignia/insingia, as I had created the folders that way on the compy. Then had a typo. The dreaded typo.

Also, we were wondering if there could be a different button to deliniate from no new posts and closed forum. The X's make it look like everthing is closed.

[miccofl]

Nice style; very easy to install (even for a noob like me.) Thanks!

[adb22791]

Very nice! I have it on my test boards, will install it on my public boards tonight!

[drumforum]

I love it!! thanks!

[Station]

*clicks install*

I love this style, but the banner just doesn't want to work with vBadvanced for some reason. I love the style so much I'm overlooking that fact for now.

[Whizzywoo]

Installed. Nice one!

[imranbaig]

Your skins are best ones... have hardwire2, looking for somthing enw from your side..

[Wordplay]

i'm most definately digging your styles. this one looks decent too. i'll click install! keep things the way you're doing them, cause you got it right ;) thanks!

is this going to work for 3.5.4?

[b6gm6n]

is this going to work for 3.5.4?

Check "Ignore style version" upon import and see... it might! - i haven't tested this myself yet! :)

-b6

[Wordplay]

uuah... alright... did you check your other one though:
