Windows Vista Style

I made this one for my own forum and after success of releasing my first style for free I thought I would do the same for the second version.



This style requires the mod "left_side_column" found here

~Instructions~

1. Upload the contents of the Vista VB II folder according to your file tree.

1. Import style VistaVBII.xml

1. To get the login panel you see on the left you will first need to import the product "left_side_column"

Then....

Login to your admincp, go to style manager select "edit templates" for the vista vb II style.

double click "forum home templates"
then "forumhome_sidecolumn_left"

Clear everything in the template then paste the followong in the template...

<------------------ Insert the below code into forumhome_sidecolumn_left

<tr>
<td class="thead" align="center">
Member Info
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="alt1">
<div style="padding: 8px 6px 0 0;"><div class="user">
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid']">

</div>
<else /> 
<!-- login form -->
<form action="login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password, vb_login_md5password, vb_login_md5password_utf, $show[nopasswordempty])">

[StuntFactoryX]

dosent fit my site. too proffesional, but excellent work.

Great looking style but I'm not a fan of fixed width versions. Also prefer not to have template edits. Keep up the good work though !

[ahmedeldeep]

i am waiting the arabic translation !!

[tekguru]

Looks good but I agree with the above - fixed with is a no no for me.

[TheBlackPoet]

its very very nice... installed!! how hard would it be to make it a little wider.... for some reason, the added colum pushes my tables to the right.. causing a misalignment..

feel free to check it out... if you go to my site go to the theme selector... and choose the last theme...

Thank you,

I see the problem.

I can fix that pretty easily. I'll take a look at it when I get home.

aside from the colors, it reminds me of Windows 95 theme.

It's nice but I found this style was Google the net and wondering if someone can implement this into vB style. It'd be freaking awesome.
