Themes/Skins

They're certainly cheerful, but they still don't fit, either colorwise or what I meant by trying to avoid "flatness."

I LOVE the Astronomy theme!

Only issues: my cameo is missing, gifts are missing (rock, flower, etc.), and the default SMF markers are still there - do you have plans to replace those?

[Buster's Uncle]

Sure.  I think everyone agrees that Astronomy is a real winner.

[Buster's Uncle]

Done.

I figured out yesterday that I had to have a clean copy of the /image folder from the default so I could be sure I got everything for all the others that don't automatically use the default images.

I don't even begin to know what to do about a Shop integration issue like item display - unless checking the Shop settings while in this theme will fix, which I doubt.  The Shop images where already uploaded to Astronomy yesterday.


Today, I need to put on all the themes I'm pretty sure we're gonna keep, and look for theme logos displacing AC2's (lotta fun tracking down where it's hidden) and things not displaying inside threads.  -Also figure out why the orange bars in adk Hallowen didn't change colors when I changed the shades.  I'm gonna have to ask for tech help with the inside-thread view width in Blue Eyes - and how to set a blued version of the Astronomy background as background...

I'm currently using The Chilling... very nice color palette. It puts me in mind of jewel-toned peacocks.

[Buster's Uncle]

  I always liked that one anyway, and it's nicer with the reds replaced and a new attitude.

Refresh on Astronomy - another logo change, and this one's a better fit.

[Buster's Uncle]

I wish layout was tweakable with the tools and knowledge I have at hand, 'cause I'd like to set the news display in the middle and signicantly shorten the space the top hogs, but I fixed the logo issue in Gone Fishin, uploaded some missing images, and have thrown Rusty in...

[Buster's Uncle]

Rusty's lovin' on Gone Fishin.

While I was browsing through themes looking to fix banners, I saw Cadence-MultiColor was definitely too broke.  It's barely legible, the change color option didn't seem to work, it has deal-breaking layout problems on the profile and admin pages, too, and I have driven a stake through its heart now.  It was going to be absolutely no one's favorite.

And then there were 20.

The Minecraft theme is all ship-shape now.  It had a great start, but the busy background atop the page made legibility issues tricky.  A custom slogan is fixed, and the logo is taken care of.

Black Ops is almost done - I think I'll look at toning down the orange after supper...

[Buster's Uncle]

I am satisfied with Black Ops now.


ACtually - I deleted those background pics that Uno didn't like - but why don't I, instead, REPLACE them and do a little more color fiddling, and there's our SMACX theme.  This I can do, and we've already got TWO dark themes besides Black Ops...

?
Yeah!  I'm gonna do it.

[Eadee]

sounds good

Sorry, but I find this one problematic. I can't see the navigation links (aqua-on-green is nearly invisible).

I like the two main shades of brown/beige, but this one is definitely not my cup of tea and I have no desire to ever use it.
