the count of about 680 millions of surfers using 800x600 is based on the last "i2" statistic about all the european/american users of internet... it is not counting the asians, so imagine... ;)

even your browsers open their default window at 800x600... mozilla, IE, Safari... with you have no prefs, first window to open is at 760pixels wide...
Couldn't have said it any better, when i design something, i make sure it fits every browser, and every resolution.

Well done to the vB.org team for being bold enough to go for such a big change, and it is a big change. When you run a successful site, it's got to be a concern doing something so dramatic.

:nervous:
they left the old style incase this all went wrong and everyone hated it :)

This design *does* fit all resolutions. The only reason why the footer looks messed up on smaller resolutions is that vBulletin.org's lengthy copyright text is wrapping. Now, to solve this, I can either re-do the footer code and make the subtle clouds on the left side smaller, or move a portion of the copyright to the bottom (where the darker blue is).

For those of you complaining that this style is only template changes -- please take a look at the contest rules. This entry was indeed part of a contest: it wasn't an in-house style. Because it was, there was no way for me to modify any portion of the code. The contest required that I deliver a style XML file -- not hacked PHP files.

And about this skin looking like 'Imagize'. Why didn't anybody say it looked like the default vBulletin skin? Because that's exactly the amount of similiarity that's between the two. Seriously. Go take a look for yourself.

You know...this design is starting to grow on me.

I like it much better than the dark blue style.

Our Copyright text is too long?

*gg* nice one ^^

@Whoeverit was: Styleid = 0 means that the user is using the default style.

A general thing: We can understand, that not everyone is pleased with the style, especially those who like the dark ones more.
But for those, wh say that there were not enough changes to the original vb style.
1. We still have a few things from DirectPixel which we just reverted for now, but may add later
2. Other than DB, is this a fresh and plain style, not that much overhead on graphics or whatever. We are not a Designersite here, which must have a style with lots of images and whatever, that wouldn't fit in vb.org.

And at the one who asked about a second place: unfortunatelly, there weren't enough participants, and with Chen no longer in the team, we have had two reasons, to just choose one winner (as we posted since a long time already.)

Well, let me know, and I can send you a new footer template that accomodates for your extra-long copyright text. ^^

Xenon 07-18-2004 05:53 PM
hmm, adding an overflow: scroll; ^^
