What graphics do you need Superman, I am pretty darn good with photoshop if I may say so myself.

This skin will finally come alive if no delays by this Sunday Can't wait!

Thanks to Mike and Nelson for their combined efforts and work <3 This was not an easy skin, especially the up/down scroll that i like it to work the same way like our homepage, meaning that the middle part scroll under Catherin legs, if that made sense :d

From the live test demo (Still few more tweaks here and there)

Nelson has done the default skin of our forum as well.

Looking pretty sharp, I would suggest working on the performance of the site after that, as you can see here it is not the greatest, http://www.webpagetest.org/result/14...2AF/1/details/

But other than that, kick azz job on the site.

Thanks it is a heavy skin because of the background image is large, not sure what i can do about that.

There are few big images around the skin.

You need to optimize the images. Ask Mike to take a look, in that site report, you can optimize the images at calls 45,46,51,77 and that will save a substantial amount of bytes.

I would also try adding this to your htaccess, to cache some of the stuff.

Code:
<IfModule mod_mime.c>

There are few big images around the skin.
Easy fixes.

Background (425kb smaller):



Logo2 (172kb smaller):



pagePattern (300kb smaller)




Just click on them, download them to your computer, change the names of them to match what's on the server, and upload them to overwrite existing.

This will take almost 1 MB off your pageload with no loss in quality.

Trim the fat.



NOTE! Logo posted here is a progressive jpg now, not a PNG. So you'll have to change the script to point to that one.

And not a one of those were mine, I only take blame for the bloated .png's in Avenger Blue LOL!

I do appreciate you two helping Katie out though I've had one hello of a migraine today and been swamped lately so this helped her wrap this style up today .

Edit: Ohh and shout out to Nelson too that Katie mentioned a post or two above, he actually finished the last remaining things on the site .
