If yes, how?

I would like to change the white areas in the div sections of the table - basically the bits around the actual forums and around the whole "table" to a light Blue. The forum is for football fans and our team pplay in Royal Blue - but that would overpower so I'd like to have different shades of blue.

Also, is it possible to change the sidebar (poster's details) to the left?

you are welcome to modify this theme however you like, just remember to leave the copyright. There is a thread around here somewhere that tells you how to change the poster details from right to left. As for the rest of what you said, that is all in colours.css

Thanks for that. Would you mind clarifying which label is the area I described above. I printed out the css files, (I should have done duplex printing

), and I couldn't work out which bit it was.

Cheers.

Nice Style, congrats.

But I have 3 questions:

1) Why did u use so many PNG and so heavy (I mean in kb) images? They affect lot on bandwith, can't u make them JPG next time?

2) I got problem with due to missing translation file (I use Italian) and in my Admin PCA it keep saying in Administration's Log that “IT (Italian) immage set is missing" for each visit I get... giving me a Log full of these sentences.

3) How can u modify the Link menù?
Thx

Hi afghano4life,

Hello Everyone,
Just an update, to answer a few questions posted here...

--I am going to be working on a full-width version of this style in the hear future. This development will occur after I tweak a few things (like the rounded corners in various places that are appearing in the original proSilver colors)

--I used PNG and GIF images simply as a design preference. I will look into the feasibility of developing a low-fi version of the style using JPG headers since they are the only images in the style using the PNG format (of course you are always welcome to add your own selections to your copy of the style in the mean time).

--If you need a translation no problem, I will make it. Currently I have a request for German and now Italian. Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese (Brazil) are already available. The other two should be available sometime next week via the link in my original post.

kevb8ll - can you screenshot what you are trying to change please.

Oh and to change the menu links, that information is on page two of this thread

Best Regards.

I would suggest background too.

glacier_bg.jpg is 350 Kb, and for 56k users like me... and for ppl who has restricted Bandwith on server... can be a very pain.

Don't worry if it lose a bit of quality, would be perfect if these images are less than 50 Kb, it's a backgroup ppl won't "study" the image there.

I would try to compress them myself, but since it's always better to work on original BMP it's better u do it.

EDIT: About links, write it in first post too, can help.

I just converted header_bgx.png in header_bgx.jpg, result:

From 780 Kb using PNG to less than 100 Kb due to JPG, working without even editing rotate.php file.

That's lot nice, compression was just 75% and not visible differences in quality.

I also Compressed the background from 350 kb to 130 Kb. But lossing visible quality (even if not much).

Here is my print screen.

BTW, I'd be interested in a full screen too, assuming we go ahead and use this theme.

I agree that this is one of the best themes so far. Great job and thanks for your hard work.

shadowflames · Post by **shadowflames** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 10:18 pm

Arael, Thanks for the info. If there is any decrease in quality I will create a "low-bandwidth" release of the style since I am certain some people appreciate the high quality version too.

kevb8ll, those are all graphics. You can look in the theme/images folder and find the following:

body_bg.gif
bg_footers.gif
bg_headers.gif
corners_bottom.gif
corners_top.gif

Just create an image with the colors you like with the same dimensions.

Great style..Thanks

One question. Since i dont want the style to have a logo, i decided to delete it. Now the problem is a retagular empty box is left on where the logo was.

How do i get rid of it?

Thanks
