Planet Earth - a free, dark style, from Themes by Design

Planet Earth is the newest of my very few dark styles. This style features -

• optimized for postbit_legacy
• separated categories
• 95% original images
• valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional

PREVIEW

Installation Instructions -

1. Click on the "Install" button on the right of this post, then download the zip file to your computer and extract it (I put it on my desktop, it's easier to remember where I put it!).
2. Open your ftp client to your server. Go to your forum's images folder, open it, and create a styles folder.
3. Next, upload the earth folder via FTP to your server, into your forum's styles folder, so that your image path is images/styles/earth/buttons, for example.
4. After you've uploaded the folder, open your admin control panel on your forum, and import the xml file, by going to Styles & Templates > Download / Upload styles > Import Style XML File.
5. Click on the Browse button, locate the earth-style.xml, and double-click it so that it loads in that box, then hit the Import button.

The zip file contains a blanks folder with 2 blank buttons in PNG format, for easy editing. No psd's are available.

Enjoy!

Just noticed a nasty thing, furthermore it's a nice template

When you integrate the forums into vBA and only use a right colum with contents, then the Collapse image isn't positioned in the category anymore.

[Ohiosweetheart]

That's something that I've not been able to find a solution for.

Sorry

The solution (roughly)

<td width="10" height="42px" align="left" valign="top" style="background-image:url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/mt-left.png)"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/spacer.gif" width="191" height="1"alt=" " border="0" /></td>
    <td width="100%" height="42px" style="background-image:url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/mt-middle.png)" valign="middle">
			<div align="left">
			<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><b>$forum[title]</b></a></div>
			<if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></div></if>
	</td>
     <td width="483px" height="42px" align="right" valign="middle" style="background-image:url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/mt-right.png)">
     	<a style="position:relative;" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumbit_$forumid')"><img id="collapseimg_forumbit_$forumid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat{$collapseimg_forumid}.gif" alt="" hspace="25" border="0" align="right" /></a>
         <img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/spacer.gif" width="413" height="1" alt=" " align="bottom" border="0" />
     </td>

It works in this way on my forums either in FF as in IE, only I forgot the exact width to space.

btw, I hope you dont that I'm slightly modifying the template to my taste and towards the purpose of the site. Your credits will remain if you've placed them, else pm me the details.
