Heads22 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I've designed a new skin that is much like the old silverish grey. Go down to the pulldown menu at the bottom of the page where the 2.1 skin is selected and choose HeadsCustom to see what it's like. Also, please post any bugs/problems here. I have to go fill a car with gas then I'll be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 18, 2006 -> 02:56 PM) Soild Heads. I guess the one thing I would say is that with the default skin, I like how topics are sort of "boxed in" with the lines, where as this skin doesnt really have that. Does that make sense? Can you give me a screen shot of what you're referring to? The CSS stuff that's used is interchangable but a lot of the stuff is used for different things.

greasywheels121 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 18, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) When using skin 2.1, look on the main page for Pale Hose. All the topics are on the page, but there is thin white line separating them all. With the new skin, the line is gone or is just mixed in with the new white. Sorry, its kinda hard to explain that little detail... I know exactly what you mean Tony. I'm trying to show him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 18, 2006 -> 03:01 PM) Can you give me a screen shot of what you're referring to? The CSS stuff that's used is interchangable but a lot of the stuff is used for different things. In the blue version, white lines seperate stuff such as the forum topics like a grid. But the new version is white where the light blue would be so there are no more lines seperating it. I think that's what he means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 Well, Greasy thinks it needs more black, so he can design his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted May 18, 2006 Author Share Posted May 18, 2006 The deal was that we could have brought the old Silverish Grey in, and it's actually there, but invisible to everyone but the admins. The thing is, though, that you can't use the options menu (the spiffy flash one) and the CSS setup is different, so I had to go thru and recode a lot of crap to make one similar. Now, Greasy is gonna make one of his own which will be an option too. That will prob take a while. And so ya guys know, we're gonna try and have a handful of skins to use, but as of right now, I thought the Silverish like one was more important. Both Gage and Greasy are working on skins of their own. It's kind of a slow process. But, I gotta head out and cover a tennis meet tonight for the paper, so I can't tinker til later. Chances are when I get back tonight, too, I might flip the gray and the white to have borders. I don't like how it looks like this, but I don't have time right now.

hi8is Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 i like it, looks really clean... only complaint is that its a little static Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Umm...this stuff is foreign, and don't expect a skin from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 One problem I see is that when I do an add reply or a new topic the size of the screen makes it to where I need to scroll horizontally where on the other skins I don't have to. Anyone notice that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Looks good Alex. For those wanting a bit more black, the one I've been in development will have a bit more of that. So we should have a nice gray version and a solid black version (i say solid cause I lack creativity, but when I finish finals I'll get it done; my version is about 70% done).

DePloderer Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 Can anyone tell me how to design a skin? And where's the Die banner gone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the Dye banner disappeared because it worked so damn well last night. JD had a huge game while being featured as the Soxtalk banner. Tonight Vazquez is on the mound, and the Powers That Be have decided to give him a little extra mojo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The banners are different depending on which skin you are using. For the Default skin, which is the blue, it's Dye. For the one Heads just rolled out, it's Vazquez.

For some reason that made me think of those lame ass survival commercials. "I can't take that ride" Anyway Dye header is now up on both of them and it looks awesome on this gray skin.
