To actually do this I would need to look over your current style templates, because custom styles vary a lot on the way they are designed.

Regards,

awesome! you have a pm dude. :D

patrick91 06-08-2010 03:25 PM

Maybe stupid question but if ik choose for header padding to 0 the header and the forum is together... is it possible to get the space there?

The 1280 is running on my site if anyone wants to see.

Just need to figure out how to make it clickable so the headder takes you to main CMS or Forum home.

syrus.xl I put my url in the cc_1280_head.xml but when clicked it opens in new tab. You may have forgotten to fix this when I brought it up last.

bergovoy 06-08-2010 05:37 PM

thank you for the link, and yea, its the distortion and auto aspect stuff that is killin me...

i would just love a program that uploads/views the picture, and you can type in 950x150 and it pops up a box/window that i can overlay onto the picture and move it around to see what i can crop...

i think that is what you said... in that link of yours, and yes, im old too.

what about the LOGO? how do i create that and or get it to be ttransparent???

everything i do in PAINT comes out opaque... and or covers up the flassh images...

bergovoy 06-08-2010 06:11 PM

ok, thumbs plus is perfect... just like you suggested, and like i wanted...

simply open the img file and enter the (transform) and enter exact size of 950x150

it pops up a cropped windo over the img and you drag it to the area you want, and enter and save...

I love it...

NOW, PLEASE... how do i make the logo so that it does not white out the imgs????

also, i will prolly remove the ads for now, but later on, i would like to know how to find and install adds

thanks

bill

I have photoshop and am self taught... I am 40 and it was no easy task... if you have a logo you want to use i can make the transparent file with your logo as an image and email it to you. PM me for my email address, and send me yours.. I will need your logo image and what size you plan on using.. 950?1280?

PS. There are millions of photoshop tutorials on line if you ever get the software. I just goggle what i think i want to do and photoshop and find a polethera of tutorials.

Go to the sint i sent you to. Click new image, set size, check the transparent check box. then ad new layer, the new layer will be your logo. This site is sort of like photoshop, it works on layers, once the get the hang, it is easy.

I will stop hijacking this thread now. pm me.

That issue is caused by a grouped CSS variable that really needs spliting into two definitions. It maybe fixed in v4.0.4 - well, we can hope or if not we can split the CSS ourselves. :rolleyes:

bergovoy 06-10-2010 02:42 AM

ok, im makin progress using photo shop... im not sure what i will do when the trial runs out though.. hopefully i will be done by then.. hehehe

i was not able to modify the logo file that came with this mod, as i cant figure out how to edit or modify the concepta logo, the blue thing... it isnt text is it???

So, i created a new file, with the size and everything, and just used text and modifyd the crap out of it.. wow, photoshp is a bit powerful ... i wish i was creative enuf to put something together.. but for testing purposes i got something going.. and it worked on the preview program and uploaded it to the website and nothing..

well, actually it did not show the concepta logo anymore so i know the file is changed, but not sure why the logo isnt showing thru???

I re uploaded all the img files from the previewer and then all the files and still nothing...

arrgghhh

Just a quick note of thanks for this. Installed, nominated, and brand-free version purchased. I have it set up very basically right now, but as I learn I see where the sky's the limit with this one. Two thumbs up!

The Concepta logo was designed in Adobe Illustrator then imported in to Photoshop, therefore the original text becomes rasterized and not editable. You do not need Illustrator to produce the text, it can be done in Photoshop just as well, once you learn how to manipulate text to how you want it. Anything is possible really, it's just knowing 'how-to' in the first place.

Hi,

Yes, it is a versatile modification - it will be even more in the future. I am planning to bring out more functional parameters, so people can adjust it to suit their own styles, along with timing routines.

Thanks! :)

Ken Sanders 06-10-2010 03:12 PM

Super mod! Marked, nominated and bought the unbranded version.
Thanks so much.

HEY, this actually makes sense to me.. i think i am makin some progress.... hehehehehe

syrus.xl 06-11-2010 05:00 PM

Basically the header uses multiple layers but in Flash, no Photoshop.

Layer 1 = Logo
Layer 2 = Banner Rotator
Layer 3 = Background

The actual Logo layer uses a masked empty movieClip which is the full size of the header.

The banner rotator is setup to use various image formats and import them in to another empty movieClip.

The background uses the same coding again as the banner rotator but on a larger scale.

Both the banner rotator and the background importer are setup to rescale images, if they are not the correct size. The only problem with this is if you use small images they will show pixelation, which does not look good.

bergovoy 06-11-2010 05:30 PM

ok, now you are showing off... hehehehe

and im lost again.

are you saying that your mod takes images and imports them into some type of movie?

and the vbulleting header/logo is a movie file/image?

Found that after replacing
Code:

<div><a name="top" href="{vb:raw vboptions.forumhome}.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" class="logo-image"><img src="{vb:stylevar titleimage}" alt="{vb:rawphrase x_powered_by_vbulletin, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}" /></a></div>
With the concepta code, the forum "top" link at the bottom right of the pages no longer works correctly.
Still love this mod!
Any work around?
Regards,
Ken

syrus.xl 06-12-2010 10:03 AM

Hi Ken,
That was a bug, that was fixed. However the documentation in some packages has not been updated to reflect this. If you check the first post on this mod you will see I have added the 'top' anchor in to the DIV, in the replacement code, this fixes that issue.

All bugs will be removed in all documentation very soon. I have a new update planned very soon that will be adding further setup parameters to the product.

Ken Sanders 06-12-2010 12:00 PM

Many thanks! You guys Rock!:cool:

syrus.xl 06-16-2010 07:04 AM

The new update for this product will be released once we have checked it in the forthcoming vBulletin 4.0.4. This will allow us to make any changes before releasing it, should any be required.

Hi Animemike,
If it's a directory change then you will need to specify the absolute url in the XML file for the images. If that fails, let me know. Flash sometimes as issues on where it is placed, but it is nothing that cannot be fixed.

Works fine in vb4.0.4 Up and running.

www.gamergodz.com

syrus.xl 06-18-2010 02:29 PM

4.0.4 Update Issue
We are aware of an issue regarding the alignment when you upgrade to 4.0.4. This will be fixed in an updated version of the product.

We held back the updated version for this very reason because vBulletin upgrades can play havoc with additional installed modifications.

There are no other reported issues regarding this modification.

patrick91 06-18-2010 02:40 PM

Me also have no problems with 4.0.4!?

x626xblack 06-18-2010 02:41 PM

When your say alignment, do you mean in I.E? Where are we talking about, i do not seem to have any issues.

I ddo know in I.E. 7 it is putting my login area under the header.

syrus.xl 06-21-2010 10:12 PM

There is a gap between the header and the navbar tabs in 4.0.4. It is just a simple CSS change, so it lies flush.

Regards,

x626xblack 06-23-2010 10:21 AM

Thanks.. I fixed it on mine.

Hey what happen to the vb 3.8.x version of this ? maybe it was for 3.7?

I would like to try this for 3.8 as not all of us are on 4.0 yet ?

We did actually release a Lite version for 3.6.x a long time ago, and that was very limited in features. But it was never released for 3.7.x or 3.8.x.

To actually get it working on 3.8.x requires modifying the installation code. When I get a hour spare I will update it to work on 3.8.x, I will release it under 3.8.x modifications, so there is no mix up between the different versions.

That would be awesome if you can release this for 3.8.x do you have any time frame for this as I would love to install this..

syrus.xl 06-23-2010 01:08 PM

At the moment, I do not have a copy of vBulletin 3.8.5 setup. So, I will need to do this first then note down the header changes. It is actually easier to code it for vBulletin 3 series than 4.0.x.

I guess maybe a day or so, it's mainly just updating the embed code with vbulletin 3 in the documentation - not a huge job, just slightly different with the style setup parameters.

Regards.

WOW that would be great I will keep a look out.. If you dont mind posting it in this thread just letting us know that you posted the 3.8 version so I get an email alert

Thanks

BTW: Im still waiting to figure out why the logo works and looks ok when testing on the PREVIEWER, but when i upload to my server/host, the logo doesnt show....

i see the rotating banners, but no logo???

i doubled checked and downloaded the files back to my hard drive and tested the previewer and again, it worked...

hmmm
