Detailed vBulletin skin installation instructions with images

Version 4.x of this template for vB4 uses no tables instead i decided to use CSS3 border-image, unfortunately Internet Explorer does not support border-image so the left and right border will not appear in IE, i added the top and bottom borders in IE with <!--[if IE]>

If you change the size of the logo (vbulletin4_logo.png) you will need to edit the header template and change the width to keep the logo centered perfectly:

In version 4.2.5 the border code was replaced to work with newer CSS3, with the older code the borders would not show in many browsers.

If anybody finds any bugs or needs support please post in this thread and not via private message. Thank you

Hi Sean,

I'm stil using vb4.1.7 if i see the problems above with the upgrade to 4.1.8 with your style.

Edit: I figur it out.

[Sean James]

Skin updated to vBulletin 4.1.8.

This release has many bug fixes so I suggest updating to it.

In 4.1.8 the editor is now styled using the stylevars, so all custom css in the editor.css and editor_contents.css templates have been reverted.

The major bug is advertising. Advertising features are simply not working with this theme. Ads that can be placed in the header, below the navigation bar and above footer, etc... don't show at all. No matter if its in the cms or in the forums.

Is there a way that this bug could be fixed?

Thanks again for your hard work.

Do you have any templates for 'ads' that are red? if so revert them.

Buth if i read Digital Mayhem his post, its better to wait for Sean?

Sorry I had to redo the editor and some other bugs this time round took me much longer than expected.

Must i upload the compleet map + xml or is only the xml good?

And again thnx for all the good work to this skin m8

If you use the CMS you need to upload all 3 XML files. Follow his instructions in the text file. After the style is installed and the darkness.xml is uploaded do the next two (CMS and Blog). Make sure you select Darkness under 'Merge Into Style' in the Download/Upload Styles section.
