Notes:
- Demo forum shows only postbit_legacy, but usual postbit is also included in template and screenshot is available in attachment.
- Almost every template was modified to include rounded headers, not only index. So xml files are rather large.
- Style includes two versions for every color scheme: fixed and fluid width.
- Logo psd file is in attachment.
- vBAdvanced template files are included in every style in vbadvanced.xml
- If you want some additional color scheme(s) please pm me (note: custom work is not free).

Installation:
Unpack zip file, upload contents of directory "upload" to your forum including subdirectories. Use fixed.xml or fluid.xml to install template.

vBAdvanced Installation:
Install normal style from fixed.xml or fluid.xml, in styles manager select "download/upload", put vbadvanced.xml in file field, in "merge into style" field select previously installed CA Serenity style and upload it. This will add vBAdvanced template files to style you previously installed.


Screenshots and zip files are in attachment.

Hi, this is one of the best soft skin I've seen about vBulletin styles, but I noticed that too, the Designer who make that great work don't consider at 99% the validation w3c and css standard, why that?

What do you mean? Code is valid. If it doesn't validate in w3.org validator it doesn't mean code is wrong. Because of browser problems sometimes invalid code is required to make it work in some particular browser (mostly IE, sometimes Firefox).

Code is not semantically correct because of vBulletin structure. Try making a tableless template that would look like this template, work properly in threaded and hybrid modes, display correctly in all 4 major browsers and being compatible with most vbulletin hacks.

How hard would it be to make an orange template?

I won't be creating new color schemes for release any time soon, but you can pm me about custom color scheme. It won't be free though.

Hi,

I'm trying to add some stuff in the right of my message post: similiar to http://forum.hardwarezone.com/showth...6#post22837686.

Can you guide me how do I add a right column within postbit itself?

I tried creating <td> before post_message but shift the entire post content and create a new column which i dont want.

Help pls!

[CyberAlien]

in postbit_legacy on line 24 before </tr> add code similar to this:

<td rowspan="3" valign="top" class="alt1">
put here your code
</td>

[milsirhc]

Thanks for the prompt reply!!

I tried the code and it work but the bar on top shift to the left as well.

How do I make it such that the everything (the bar, + the signature + the reply, edit section) all look the same as normal but with the extra column on the right?

Here's how it looks like now: http://iamboredr.com/forum/pictures-...get-stuff.html

I have attached my postbit_legacy code, so please help me.,

Very clean and beautiful skin btw, Love it! I'll be installing the other colors too for my site! :up:

[CyberAlien]

Then move that code before next </tr>, and in first row change:

<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal" colspan="2">

to

<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal" colspan="3">

and

<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal; border-left: 0px" align="$stylevar[right]">

to

<td class="thead" style="font-weight:normal; border-left: 0px" align="$stylevar[right]" colspan="2">

[CyberAlien]

Also change this:

<td class="alt2" width="100%" id="td_post_$post[postid]"; colspan="3";>
	<else />
	<td class="alt1" width="100%" id="td_post_$post[postid]">
	</if>

to this:

<td class="alt2" width="100%" id="td_post_$post[postid]" colspan="3" style="border-bottom: none;">
	<else />
	<td class="alt1" width="100%" id="td_post_$post[postid]"  style="border-bottom: none;">
	</if>

and this:

<tr>
<td class="alt2">
</td>
<td class="alt1" align="$stylevar[left]">
		<if condition="$post['signature']">

to this:

<tr>
<td class="alt2" style="background-image: none;">
</td>
<td class="alt1" align="$stylevar[left]" style="border-top: none; background-image: none;">
		<if condition="$post['signature']">

CyberAlien! You are a legend! Thanks for your assistance!!! Appreciate it.

Just one more slight adjustment.. The "edit, reply,quote" button, can they be move all the way to the right? (ie: beneath the right section) and also is there anyway to remove that left-border of the right section and add the bottom-border so below looks like a complete line?

Thanks in advance!
