Show us some skins that require XML to work...

I'm curious as well. Really. I've been doing styles for a little while now and haven't had to touch the xml except to download it and zip it up with the graphics

[SaintDog]

Inner-workings would be defined as 'Download -> Edit'. If you edit the style via a text editor, it will be in XML format. Aside from editor-based editing, you don't need to know XML, rather, you should be aquainted with (X)HTML (2 completely different things).

Perhaps it was a typo originally, though you need not know XML to produce a vBulletin style, you need only know how to upload it via the Admin CP .

Thanks for the clarification

[SaintDog]

Many get XML and (X)HTML confused, when they are quite a bit different; it happens . Glad I could clarify things for you....

.....Now get to work on a new style release .

.....Now get to work on a new style release

Actually we have 5 new ones in development. Nothing like you've ever seen before. They will be available through our commercial division this fall, or sooner if we can find a way to put more than 24 hours in a day

Alright can we get to the point?

I need help with some skinning parts.

I'm working on a skin and would like to know how to get the tcat above the tborder on the index?

Bubble what's your company URL?

Like most companies our company policy is that we're pretty tight-lipped about revealing too much information before we've formally announced a product.

Stay tuned, though... our dev team is hard at work
