Hello, all!

I finally decided to release a style. It is a vB 3.6.5, 951 pixels fixed width, dark blue and deep gray/black style. I developed this theme on my test installation on my PC, so unfortunately there is no live demo, but I've attached a couple of screenshots. The theme has been tested with FireFox 2.0, Internet Explorer 6 and 7, and Opera 9.0.

I tried to make it so customizing it is a relatively painless procedure. In the header template, I commented where you can add your own logo, 468x60 ad code, and customize the links (Link1, Link2, etc.).

Included in the zip file are the xml file, button PSDs and icons with a dark matting.

There is no theme copyright in the footer, or any links to any sites of mine. Please, though, do not redistribute or sell the theme.

I'll support it as time allows, and I'll do my best to keep it up to date with each new vB release. If you wish to hire me to do extra customization on it, such as develop a logo, change the buttons, statusicons, etc., just send me a PM.

Please remember to "Mark as Installed"! Bonus points if you decide to throw a donation my way.

1-12-2007:
Added the PSD for the layout to the zip file.

5-03-2007:
Added a fluid version of this style. The installation instructions are the same, except for the obvious file name differences. Additionally, the fixed version of this style has been adjusted so that you can set your logo graphic in the "Title Image" field of the style manager, instead of having to edit the header template.

9-10-2007:
Updated the .xml files for vB version 3.6.8.

Installation Instructions:

1. Unzip the "blackandblue_fixed-style.zip" file.
2. Upload the two folders, "icons" and "blackandblue" in the image directory to your forum's image directory.
3. In your admincp, click "Download/Upload Styles" under "Styles and Templates".
4. In the "Import Style XML File" section, browse for the file, "bb-fixed-style.xml" included in the zip file and click the "Import" button, leaving the rest of the options at their defaults.

Enjoy!

I have some troubles about my logo. I need to tell my friends about the size of the logo, nor I know where to place it into the header. I found the comments for AD code and links but no info for the logo

Can someone help me? Thanks

You can change the logo by editing the "Title Image" field in the Style Manager.

I don't know that I'll have time to make different colored versions of this in the near future. I desperately need to make up lost work time. Perhaps someone else can give you a hand with this.

Anyhoo, I'll try and get this updated for 3.6.8 sometime tomorrow. I upgraded and updated Eyedolize today, so the template updates I need to make are fresh in my mind.

In the header template, the code for the links is placed between the <!-- LINKS --><!-- /LINKS --> comment.

You mean the text field itself? If so, this can be done by modifying the CSS for the "Input Fields" section in the Style Manager. You would also want to change the CSS for the "WYSIWYG Editor" section just above it to match.

Ah, okay. You mean the surrounding panel, which contains the various controls, I believe. You can change this at the bottom of the Style Manager in the "Text Editor Control Styles" field. If you go too dark with it, however, you'll need to update the editor graphics so they'll be legible against a dark background, and to eliminate the jaggies that will inevitably appear.
