Suite Style - Avenger (A Dark - Black/Grey Style) by TheLastSuperman

Introducing Avenger
A Dark Black/Grey Style

I've had a good number of sales off this so I've finally decided to give it away for free, that's right go ahead, download and install this dark and might I add slick style!

This is a dark black/grey vBulletin 4.2.1/4.2.2 (Confirmed working on 4.2.3! *Simply select ignore style version when installing style) Suite style from www.innovationbyinstinct.com including some of these features:

• Custom navbar and navigation tab look.
• Custom sidebar style, the typical block is not behind the widgets/blocks they're all separate!
• Custom statusicons for forum_new and forum_old.png along with custom pagination and other image replacements.
• Fluid and Fixed Width available!
• Perfect style for resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 or larger!

Demo?
Sure! View Avenger Fixed Width OR Fluid Width Demo.
*Please Note: The Demo site has a custom CMS Layout in place therefor normal CMS layout sites will see a CMS/Articles page resembling the screenshot.

Restrictions:
This style is not meant for use on http://www.carbonracecars.com otherwise have at it!

*IMPORTANT*

To install the style:

1) Upload the contents of the UPLOAD Folder.
2) If for example you want the Fixed style installed then import the file:
*Please note, if you do not use the vBulletin Suite and have the Forum Classic version you only need to install the file vbulletin-style-Avenger-421-Forum-Fixed.xml (OR -Fluid.xml).
a) Import the vbulletin-style-Avenger-421-Forum-Fixed.xml file first.
b) Merge in the vbulletin-style-Avenger-421-CMS-Fixed.xml (Options when uploading a style allow you to merge into a existing style, choose to merge this into the new style you just created using the Forum.xml.
c) Merge in the vbulletin-style-Avenger-421-Forum-Blog.xml into the style, this has now updated the style for all three major products and the installation is complete!
3) Enjoy!

*If you're running vBulletin 4.2.2 be sure to check the box:

Ignore Style Version
Use style file even if it was created by a different version of vBulletin?

Oh yeah, and it's a broken mess when switching to it, apparently. Fudge.

Unless I just installed it incorrectly. Which is entirely possible since I've not installed a theme before this one. I used the instructions in main post.

Works perfect with 4.2.3 and PHP 5.4/5.5

Do you use SSL? Had a similar issue when used a self-signed certificate...parts of the content won't load correct. Using official CA signed SSL Certificate fixed it.

Sorry if I cant help you.

Here you can see - it works on 4.2.3 with php5.5 and vbadvanced (I customized it a tiny bit)...shitty quality comes from this forums image quality reduce:

Thank you

The secret is you have to put the Avenger folder in the images root folder. The url's in the programming are pointing to that location and are expecting to find their content there.
If you add another folder or put the Avenger folder elsewhere it won't work.

I put the Avenger folder in the images root directory and then uploaded the xml sheet. I told it to ignore the style version and lo and behold, it works just fine. I ran through the functions and the threads and didn't find any problems. Only thing is the thread view icons are the VB default ones and will have to be changed to something else. Minor details.

Mike I like this one too. Now I have the blue and black fluid. What else you got?

I am still of the opinion that this is the #1 free vb style.

That's it seti - everything else is custom i.e. all other styles I've fabricated have been per site and custom for the owners. I had re-released one of Sofia's styles from a while back but never got around to updating it for current versions.

Thanks!

I was told this works fine on 4.2.3, confirmed for myself today that it does indeed work on 4.2.3. If you're installing for the first time/updating simply select "Ignore Style Version" when importing the style.xml.

Not sure how I missed this..Works great on 4.2.4 Beta 3

@TheLastSuperman
I don't see the difference between read and unread thread :-/ on your Avenger style. It is not good acording to basic UX rules.

I would by this style and the same but in light version.

I am searching for 1 style in 2 versions - light and dark.

Do you such style in your offer? (please PM me)

- On the icons, one is white for new posts, other shaded grey for old posts - the thread icons are the default ones though.
- I don't have an "opposite" or "inverted colors" version of this available.
- We don't discuss paid modifications, paid styles, or paid services in mod threads (no worries just please remember in the future).
