Questions
 

Ok, I don't know exactly where to post this because I have A)multiple questions/problems and B)I'm a straight up n00b.

Anyways, do you know where I can download styles with just colors and buttons? I know it sounds lame, but I've downloaded several styles with the templates already edited to death and they simply won't let me install my own hacks(IE Welcome menu, Top 5 stats, etc).

Also, when it tells me upload the images, sometimes the pathes are the same(IE, "bg.gif" from style A is the same as "bg.gif" from style B trying to be uploaded). How do I overcome this? How do I edit the path in the style so I can change the images and they will still be displayed?

Thanks again, --Gravis

I'm not sure about no1 but you could try over at vbulletintemplates.com as they have a large range of styles available...

For no2 there is a replacement called { imagesfolder} - you change your image path there..

Note: it doesn't have the gap :p

Hmmm...could you walk me through what to do? I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.... :paranoid:

Log into your admin cp

Goto Replacements > Modify > [expand list]

This is for the style that you want to change the imagepath

Then you'll see dothe { imagesfolder} replacement - click the 'change original' button next to it

Then you can change the paths for the imagepaths for that style :p

Or...

Log into your admin cp
Goto Styles>Modify>StyleName([fonts/colors/etc])
Now, usually when you download premade template they give you a .style file, and when you upload that it greats the style for you, so click on the [fonts/colors/etc] link beside that style

Scroll down til you see Image Paths, and change whatever needs to be done.

Keep in mind to change the paths use this method, as it allows you to modify everything at one time, and in my point of view much better and easier than to edit the {*imagesfolder} replacement.
