Blue Darkness By Admin-Utopia.com
 

Not the most original name, but it's not the worst theme you've ever seen

The only images included in this one are the post buttons. The PSD to the banner is in the "images/custom" folder.

Support is offered to those who install it. pre-install questions/Comments are open to all. :)

sweet!!!!!! but can you give some instructions how and where to load this...

I will write an instructions.txt for you. :)

EDIT // There you go. :)

Step 4: Upload the "bluedarkness" directory to your images folder.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
there is no folder called "bluedarkness" to upload to image folder.
sorry have i missed something here?
i would use the image folder but already have a folder in my images folder called images.

I apologize, this is my first mod submission and I'm still getting things together.

Download the new "bz.zip" I updated it to match the instructions.

worked like a charm thanks.
installed and looks good mate cheers :)

When uploading to the Style Manager, should I have it set to 'Create New Style', or 'Merge' into another style?

This is one of the first few styles I've tried to install, and it turned out the same as the other two, which is not right. The formatting ends up totally different than the board usually looks.

I dig the colors and would like to get them to work. I'm totally new, so I'm certain the mistake is on my end.

Here's a couple of screenshots. The first is how the BD style looks loaded up, and the second is how the board usually looks.

i imported the xml and the forum is all shifted to the right but the header and footer is srill in place

Same problem :(

Same here too :(

<font color="Red">Same To Me!</font> Any Idea

Nice style but I'm not keen on the fixed width, how do I adjust it to be wider please ?

Did you upload the image directory? Upload the whole file "bluedarkness" into your images/ directory.

Can you please provide a screenshot? That's odd.


AndyA: Go to Style Manager -> Blue Darkness -> Main Table Width (pixels or percentage) -> And add whatever you want the width to be.

Here is the screen shot!

thanks

its a sweet style.. but it did me the same way too....

amd that forum appearing at the right side? :(

Ok, edit the footer template and add "</div>" at the end. See what happens.

Great thing to happen on my first release. :(

nothing has been changed!

[B][SIZE="3"]i think the header is the problem,

open the header and replace everything by this! and thank me!

let me know if it worked!

thanks man it's ok now ;) But you must change forumhome_lastpostby for the order !
this:

Yeah thanks ;D

Thanks for the fix. I will update the files. :)

The skin had changed, the navigation had moved etc. I didn't look how it should of done.

No problem!

ok i found the mistake you did.

now no need to edit the navbar.

i found the solution!

just edit the header template! by this:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<div align="center" id="ex_border">
<table class="header_rpt" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">
&nbsp;
</td>
</tr>
</table>

<!-- /logo -->

everything will be the same except the shifting to the center!

or you can directly update the xml file i attached!

Ah right, everything is fixed now! Thanks for the Help MR.BOSS and top marks for the skin Pandemix :)

I updated the XML file on the download.

Huge thanks to MR. BOSS. I will check out my skins more carefully next time I release them. :)

this is weird as its working fine for me since day one.

Yes, I found it odd how it worked for you and I but not anyone else.

I would update the XML file if I was you jaycob, it has the fix to the problem in it. Maybe you aren't seeing it, but your members are. :(

The whole FILE, or FOLDER?

I uploaded the BD folder into the images/misc folder. Should I have uploaded only the contents of the bd folder into the images/misc folder, instead of the folder itself? Right now, it still looks the same as the previous screenshot that I provided.

Again, this is an awesome style, and I'm half retarded and totally new, so I guarantee the problem is on my end. I only need to be told once or twice, and when it clicks, it clicks. It just hasn't clicked for me yet.:D

I will be forever grateful to whomever can walk the noob through this.

I'm going to go ahead and thank MR. BOSS anyways, because he asked for it and seems to have helped the less new out! You rock!

Hang on: I just switched the display settings from 1024x768 to 800x600 and it looks good.

Please don't say that was already mentioned in this thread. :o

No, the folder into the images directory.

The path to the directory would be: forums/images/bluedarkness

Don't worry, I'm new too. xD

That's what I did. It's still not appearing correctly.
Here's a link to the board. Scroll down to the style selection box and choose something other than the Default. You'll see what I mean. Every other style formats incorrectly.

the url is http://www.audioandanarchy.com/ if anyone would rather type it in.

I appreciate the help.

Check in your Style Options to see if the image path is correct.

Ex:
images/bluedarkness/buttons
images/bluedarkness/statusicon

If they are like that then you need to check again that /bluedarkness/ is in the images/ directory.

What font is used in the banner?

Trebuchet MS I think. I lost the PSD.

Can some body upgrade this for 3.7.3
