Tech Forums - Blue & Silver theme · **Released**: 02-18-2009

This theme is a simple blue and silver theme that requires only a few files to be uploaded. The Tech Forum theme was originally custom bought as a design for TechForumz.com but I have never used the skin.

Download
Install

If you use this skin, please leave the credit at the bottom of the template intact. Just upload the "techforums" directory to your forum root and then import the XML file.

Here is a screenshot of the theme in action:

Update 19th Feb 2009 - Added new icons on request.
Update 24 March 2009 - Added PSD Logo source

Did you also upload the image files? It doesn't look like they are uploaded, or they are in the wrong location (/techforums).

Edit: I had a look at your forums (here) and it does look like the images aren'y uploaded to the right location. Just upload tham and it will work

BTW, please let me know if this would be any use in 3.5/3.6/3.7 format and I will do that - as it is easy enough to do.

Thanks for the style.

I'm wondering how to center my banner... Please use step by step directions and assume I know nothing

Looks like I spent $35 bucks for nothing at completevB for a skin. Yours is the exact look I was going for as a default skin. How great it looks on vb.org! I would love to see it on my site however, I believe there is an issue with the .xml file in your latest upload. Not to kick a gifthourse in the mouth but, I felt I should say something.

Tried to ACP import but it says "Invalid File Specified" for the "vbulletin-style.xml"

Not sure what to do.

As well there are no suggestions for where to upload "1.jpg" Its a rather large file and states that it is windows media player file type.

I'm sure this will work at a later date so thanks for your hard work.

UPDATE

Figured out what the .jpg file is. Looks nice! If I could only install .xml file.

where do I upload them? I haven't added styles since my really old 3.5 vb.

Ian Cunningham · #21 02-24-2009, 06:39 AM

The 1.jpg file is just a preview - I'll rename that in the next release

The XML file works ok for me on my test site. To upload it:

Log into the AdminCP
Click Styles & Templates
Then Download/Upload Styles
In the "Import Style XML File" section browse for the XML file on your computer
Then click "import" at the bottom of the screen.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
