Title: A new skin?
Post by: ellie-is on January 30, 2009, 11:20:38 PM: No, I am not suggesting that we replace the current one with another skin. Dont kill me yet.

This is, as much as I love the classical, dark skin, some times I wish I had a lighter one, and stuff. So, here is my question. Would it be possible for charas to have a new skin, anytime soon? BTW. Heres a quick recolor I did to show what I mean.

Default skin could still be the default skin. But a little checkbox in the profile where you get to chose another skin wouldnt hurt.

Okay, you can kill me now.

Although I do think our skin amount is kind of limited

Post by: Fisherson on January 31, 2009, 05:12:45 AM: Would changing the number of Skins we have cause the site to go down? becase I personaly don't have a problem with just having one skin color. I kind of like this color.
Title: Re: A new skin?
Post by: fruckert on January 31, 2009, 05:17:43 AM: I like this color
I just would like more choices, because it's either this or blindingly white

Ive seen the buttons that can be pressed on the other side of the charas user interface....and the possiblilities exist to do awesome things....but work must be done.......and the more you douchebags can do to help things along, the less of a load osmose has to bear through school and being a gay lamewad (which is more work then you may think) taht never gets tha puss.

TL:DR

figure out how to make skins for the SMF/3.0charas and make em

I'll have to learn that this year and I dun wanna.

Post by: ellie-is on January 31, 2009, 01:02:18 PM: Gem, I actually know some people who are able to do skins for this kind of forum. I could annoy the hell out of some of them so they would make a skin.

Oh, btw. We could just copy this skin, edit the colors, and done. Would take like 10 minutes.

Post by: X_marks_the_ed on January 31, 2009, 01:08:48 PM: I've been picking up on CSS for a few weeks now, my first practice session may be a skin for the forum, if it doesn't require too advanced of stuff.

Post by: fruckert on February 01, 2009, 03:28:02 AM: This is the only good one, though
All the others are blindingly white

I didnt knew that. Creepy. But, charas needs to be blue. Allways. Otherwise its not charas.
Title: Re: A new skin?
Post by: Ben on February 01, 2009, 12:23:30 PM: you know that charas was white once, right?
Title: Re: A new skin?
Post by: ellie-is on February 01, 2009, 12:30:24 PM: That was long before I joined. The charas I know is blue.
EDIT: Those skins are the default SMF ones. They should be removed.

Post by: X_marks_the_ed on February 10, 2009, 10:48:31 PM: Well, I just finished installing SMF on my own little setup of a half-server. If anyone has any ideas, I may use skinning them as a way to learn PHP.
