The only change you will have to make is to 100% v3.5.2 compliant is:

navbar

Changed all instances of

HTML Code:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">
to

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['member']">
Requires Revert: Yes, if you don't want the logout page to show "Welcome User"

I will eventually.

I'm using 3.5.2 and I've downloaded the 3.5.x gold version and noticed in earlier posts that modifications were needed to some templates, to make it 3.5.1 compliant, is this still needed in the latest version??

And with the nav bar alteration, forgive me for being a numpty but this is my first attempt at forums and html so I'm a bit slow lol but is it only the instances within the nav bar section that needed altering , I'm assuming I just change the bit within the < and > you quoted.

Great template and thank for doing it.

make sure you upload the included "red2black" folder into your forum root, not into "forumroot/images".

Can Anyone help me with this one, its my first attempt at adding a style and I could really do with a step by step walk through??

Couldn't find the v3.5.1 release thread mentioned earlier in this thread either

Oh, its a neat style for Ducati motorbike forums, remove the gradients and it gives it a proper Ducati feel.

Hey Chef, I need to make some custom buttons for the style. Would you be willing to share what font you used, and what effects? I'd be happy to post the buttons that I create, as others may find them useful. The ones I need to create (so far) to go with the Geek Article System:

New Article
New Review
New Tutorial
Comment

I'm using Photoshop.

Cheers,
Michael

There should be a PSD folder in the ZIP file that has all of the buttons and other images with effects and stuff in tact. There are also the fonts that I used in that PSD folder as well. Install the fonts in the PSD directory and open up button_large.psd

Thanks Chef, you thought of everything! Installed the fonts and opened it in Photoshop.

Here's a Comment button if anyone needs one.
