Retro Blue

Retro Blue

Designed by J. Digory of Neeto.org for free use.
Included in the style are PSD/PNG files so that users of both Fireworks and Photoshop may edit the logo and add new Site Links.

There is no longer a demo of the site, as my personal site is being used in another manner. Screenshots are available in the original release thread.

Bugs & Other Gnats
Myself and a few others have tested the style on both Mac and Windows using multiple browsers. Opera is the only one that ended up needing some special coding just for it, but it should be behaving properly now. But if you do find something that is not quite right, share it. I will do whatever I can to fix them in a timely manner.


As a side note, I have made a set of smilies that are only available at my site. They go well with this style, but I have chosen to release them seperately, as by default, smilies are universal across the site. While the same is true about icons, it is my design, and I chose to do icons.

Edit - Aug 5th, 2006 - The style, upon import, uses absolute paths to neeto.org folders. This is due to the fact that my site is using vbadvanced, and it changes your paths to absolute paths. Please take a moment to edit the image paths for the style to your own site.

Edit - Aug 13th, 2006 - The title of "Beta 2" is a misnomer: it is fully operational and ready for a live environment. There were some small oddities found that I wish to stamp out before it is considered "final". The Important Info file has been updated to be more relevant. The logout issue with the dropdown menu in the navbar has been fixed. A few other minor changes were added as well. When the oddities reported thus far have been dealt with, I will begin working on a version for 3.6 Gold. (should not be too hard, but we will see)

Edit - Oct 24th, 2006 - This mod is no longer in development. I apologize for those that looked to me for work into this. There are many other great styles out there, though. Goodluck!

Enjoy.

Wow I just reverted all the templates and this style is sick! The colors and buttons are great on the default vB templates. I suggest you guys try this!

From now on im doing this on all styles I like

You know what? I may just release color and image variants of the default vb style. That would make upgrades simple! You know, Dream...I may owe you for that. Thanks!

You are welcome =)

Let me know if you make any other styles ^_^

Btw, I'd like to order a dark style if you wanna make one ^_^!!

edit: oh btw this style doesn't have a buttons/viewpost.gif image, for the new quote code, the image that links back to the quoted post

I do believe I ended up using the same image as last post, just copying it and renaming it. Unfortunately I lost the master files for this style. Had some computer troubles. Anyway, I am working on a dark style for my band, and will release the style without template edits/

Black with shades of gray and maroon (with a light splash of yellow believe it or not).

I've installed this one as a child of another, so I had to revert the navbar.

Besides that, it works like a charm. Thank you!

I love this style, very nice!

I do have a Q? I am having troubles changing the portal button. I wanted to change it to forum. I downloaded the font Coolvetica. But, photoshop asks to change the image when opened. And of coarse it screws up the image. Do I need to make a new one or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks, dreck

Hmm, perhaps someone else can help. I do not use photoshop. I never have, and likely never will. Sorry. I only provided the file in the hope that other people could use it (I exported it as a photoshop file from macromedia fireworks).

Ok, no problem. I have fireworks, I will try that.

Thanks, dreck

First item of business - I love this style and have installed.

Second - I am having an alignment issue and it just seems to be in the thread display area. I have attached an image showcasing the issue and have red-dotted the parts that need to be aligned. Please let me know if you have a work-around for this.

Thanks for your time.
