Retro Blue

Retro Blue

Designed by J. Digory of Neeto.org for free use.
Included in the style are PSD/PNG files so that users of both Fireworks and Photoshop may edit the logo and add new Site Links.

There is no longer a demo of the site, as my personal site is being used in another manner. Screenshots are available in the original release thread.

Bugs & Other Gnats
Myself and a few others have tested the style on both Mac and Windows using multiple browsers. Opera is the only one that ended up needing some special coding just for it, but it should be behaving properly now. But if you do find something that is not quite right, share it. I will do whatever I can to fix them in a timely manner.


As a side note, I have made a set of smilies that are only available at my site. They go well with this style, but I have chosen to release them seperately, as by default, smilies are universal across the site. While the same is true about icons, it is my design, and I chose to do icons.

Edit - Aug 5th, 2006 - The style, upon import, uses absolute paths to neeto.org folders. This is due to the fact that my site is using vbadvanced, and it changes your paths to absolute paths. Please take a moment to edit the image paths for the style to your own site.

Edit - Aug 13th, 2006 - The title of "Beta 2" is a misnomer: it is fully operational and ready for a live environment. There were some small oddities found that I wish to stamp out before it is considered "final". The Important Info file has been updated to be more relevant. The logout issue with the dropdown menu in the navbar has been fixed. A few other minor changes were added as well. When the oddities reported thus far have been dealt with, I will begin working on a version for 3.6 Gold. (should not be too hard, but we will see)

Edit - Oct 24th, 2006 - This mod is no longer in development. I apologize for those that looked to me for work into this. There are many other great styles out there, though. Goodluck!

Enjoy.

Instead of putting the user profile field left align can you put it above the thread like this

Thanks, Terminatoronly.

Yeah, it's a default feature, and it has been set up to work properly with Retro Blue.

Thanks for your reply! I have one more question. I am using two language and the languagechanger and themechanger line together and make the skin look ugly. Please look at my attachment.

Could you fix it?

Thanks

Anh one more thing: The text in "thread tool" is missed. See the attachment

I've got the same thing, should we all change it manually?

[duskdawn]

OK, I changed them myself but one more thing.
I cannot log off by clicking the drop down menu on my name at the right corner.
I can by using default style and cannot either at your site so I assume this is something wrong with your templates?
Nice style anyways. Thanks.

[Bad Bunny]

I'll look into these things tomorrow and fix them.

Thanks everyone for the interest in the style and for the help.

On the live version of the style (on neeto.org) I have updated the style to fix the logout error in the navbar (the footer was still working). I had to switch it to a regular link for some odd reason.

I also fixed up the footer to properly display the language and the style dropdowns. They are intended to be one right below the other. If you think this is "ugly" I am open to suggestions, but I personally like it that way.

The Thread Tools dropdown displays properly on my live version running vb 3.6, so I cannot duplicate the error you are having with missing text.

Can anyone else confirm. Once I can find confirmation of this and fix it, I will release an updated version of the style. Thanks again for the help and interest, everyone.

I have looked and looked repeatedly now for what "images and other things" are pointing to my site and not yours. I have checked out a couple different sites running the style and searched in the source for "neeto.org" and have found the only occurrence being the link in the footer pointing to neeto.org, just as it should.

I would appreciate any help you can give me in helping me find what images and things you are looking for that are hard coded urls.
