vBulletin_Dark Theme
 
First off this is my first style I had made and released to the public so please report any errors and I'll do my best to fix this.

Second I would like to give credit where credit is due most of the buttons came from Shelley_c her graphics called Dark Glossy Buttons and her wonderful Private Message Icons.

I would also like to thank Blumen Studios (Art & Design) for pushing me forward in designing this style.

I hope that you all will download and install the style to your forums. I made it as best as I could and worked pretty hard in getting all the colors just right.


New Install:

Please upload "vb_Dark" folder to your forum directory folder.

Once uploaded install the theme by using the vb_Dark.xml
*IF* images do not work please select the paths in the:
Styles & Templates > Style Manager > <<VB DARK THEME >> StyleVars

Make sure all images point to vB_Dark/images/* Replace the * with (Buttons, Statsicons, Attach, Etc...)


Notice
: You will see this release in vBulletin 3.7 Once it turns gold!



Live Demo: Blumen Studios (Art & Design) LLC
(If you would like to have your forum listed as a live demo please private message me)


Release Update:
12/31/07: Added "Icons" folder that was not included in theme



PLEASE MARK INSTALL!

You might want to config the "Styles CSS" code. I checked out your site. Images are broken :(

Yeah I just fixed it, I put the vb_dark folder into images, now it's moved back into the root directory it's all good. =]

Afterglow86 12-30-2007 09:40 AM

This will sound like a rather silly question, but how would I go about adding my own logo/banner at the top?

Mr.619 12-30-2007 12:49 PM

Great, it works on 3.7! :)

sam anders 12-30-2007 03:29 PM

great skin thank you :-)

Reload the original vb header template.

Afterglow86 12-31-2007 01:17 AM

Thanks, worked it out.

KURTZ 12-31-2007 03:17 AM

What kind of log out button are we talking about? By default the logout is in the top right.

Movie-Streaming 12-31-2007 01:33 PM

half of the buttons that is on the live demo isn't even in the .xml.

the icons like /icons/icon1.gif etc. is all vbulletin's orginal icons whereas on the live demo it has it's custom one.

and if u look in the attachment i can't get the navbar icon to work neither the banner (circled in red). can you please provide us with a full finished skin download with the xml. thanks.

I really want to use this skin asap, but i won't be using it if this isn't fixed.

I have updated it. The icons are now included.

Movie-Streaming 12-31-2007 02:31 PM

Nope still the same. Look at www.movie-streaming.com

EDIT: nvm. i overwritted the vb_dark/images/ onto the /images/ in the forum root, so it works now.

Akuma2000 12-31-2007 04:54 PM

installed!

One question. I've added my own header (image).
But there is a "distance" between the header and the main menu (user cp, FAQ etc.)
How can I remove the spacing between the two?

Akuma2000 12-31-2007 09:01 PM

Another thing.

I've added Avatars to the gallery.
But it shows standard 10 avatars in the user control panel.
If the avatars are big, the layout (tables) will brake and it's very ugly.

How to change the 10 avatars to 6 or something?

Weapon-x 12-31-2007 09:18 PM

That would be in the settings in the admincp

r_sole 01-13-2008 04:55 AM

You need to go into your MAINCSS and add the "vB_Dark/table_bg_image2.gif"

</table>
<!-- /logo -->

r_sole 01-13-2008 10:28 PM

Sweet, thanks dude.

scruffy 01-16-2008 08:50 AM

Installed. Thanking you kindly for that sir - you's vewy clever!

As a basic chickster and new to the whole forum running thang, i understand i have to re-upload the original banner part from VBully, but with your template, its quite narrow on the page.. lots of black space to the sides, is there any way of filling that? or can it be used for advertisements?

It can be used for both. Just work with the header template to do what your looking for.

where exactly?

TIA Weapon

Weapon-x 01-17-2008 02:29 PM

Styles & Templates > Style Manager >"vb_Dark Theme" > Main CSS

Scroll down to "Category Strips"
Background: #000000 url(vB_Dark/table_bg_image2.gif) repeat-x top left

Scroll down to "Table Header"
Background: #FFBA00 url(vB_Dark/table_bg_image.gif) repeat-x top left

Scroll down to "Table Footer"
Background: #FFBA00 url(vB_Dark/table_bg_image.gif) repeat-x top left

Scroll down to "Popup Menu Controls"
Background: #000000 url(vB_Dark/table_bg_image2.gif) repeat-x top left

That should sum it all up. If you have anymore problems let me know.

Weapon, i appreciate your assistance. But, being a non-technical blonde I'm at a disadvantage. You see, we have your template (which is fab btw) but the banner is posing a problem. Where and how do we download our designed one to your template? I've read 16 pages of 'header template' help, and its messed with my head :(

Could you please tell me how, as if you were talking to a child :D

Thanking you kindly. :) x
