Spring - a light, textured, feminine style

One of the very first styles I designed, I've recently updated it, re-designed some images.

LIVE DEMO

Installation Instructions -

1. Click on the "Install" button on the right of this post, then download the zip file to your computer and extract it (I put it on my desktop, it's easier to remember where I put it!).
2. Open your ftp client to your server.
3. Next, upload the spring folder via FTP to your server, into the images folder, so that your image path is images/spring/buttons, for example.
4. After you've uploaded the folder, open your admin control panel on your forum, and import the xml file, by going to Styles & Templates > Download / Upload styles > Import Style XML File
5. Click on the Browse button, locate the xml file for spring, and double-click it so it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.

You'll find a blank header image, and button, for your use. If you need customizations, please request these on my site.


PLEASE don't forget to click "Mark as Installed".

Enjoy!

Sorry for the late reply! Indeed I am still offering this style, in both 3.6.x and 3.7.0

Always the lazy one, I updated vb to 3.7 but haven't touched the style. Nobody's noticed any problems yet. Or did it update automatically?

[Ohiosweetheart]

3.7 has about 10 new images, so I would suggest that you upgrade
Being rather lazy myself, you could just import the xml file, overwriting the old one, and upload the buttons and misc folders, overwriting, of course. All of the new images are in those two folders.

You mention overwriting the old xml file, but no such option exists. I hope you mean "merge into style" because that's what I just did.

edit: Total disaster. Spring has lost all my icons (Go Back, Reload this page, even headersample.jpg (which I managed to find my customized one in an old backup WHEW)). I tried deleting it and importing the xml to a new style but same deal. What a mess!

edit edit: omg "Go to your forum's images folder, open it, and create a styles folder.". Is this going to be a new 3.7 thing for all skins? Anyway, now it's working. Arg.

[Ohiosweetheart]

No, this is my preference. I'm glad you got it working. grrrrr I meant merge into style. Fixed now on first post. thanks

So I just noticed this evening that reputation was turned off on the board. I turned it on, only to find that in Spring the rep icons aren't showing. They're working in the other two styles. Screenshot

The icon itself seems to be there. Any ideas?

[Ohiosweetheart]

sorry videx, I have no idea why. Make sure they're uploaded in the correct directory in your ftp.

[Videx]

It seems to be a path problem. With this version you created a /images/styles/spring/ folder. But this icon is linking to /images/spring/reputation/reputation_pos.gif - your old way of doing it.

When I updated, I renamed my old /styles/spring folder to /images/old_spring. Today, if I rename that back to /images/spring, the icon shows back up. But clearly this is an error in the style.

I'm glad you got it fixed for your site.

Because you had such a problem. I've moved the 3.7 style to the 3.7 forum.
