Brady Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 http://analogical-studios.com/forums/ My very first skin, I don't think im quite finished but I'm getting there. It's taken a while because I've made a few errors here and there, but other than that I'm quite happy with it. What do you guys think? --Edit-- Changed the two different maintitle's.
Perry Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Not bad at all for a first skin. I like the color combination a lot. I would do a little something special with the background color, and maybe add a border to the overall skin. Other than that, the greens and blues flow very nicely. You started like most beginning skinners, by keeping the same IPB css and just editing the images. Very nice. 8/10.
Brady Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Actually I made it like that for my matching site template.. But thanks!
Ehren Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Looks like the same icons from here and some graphics from IPB Enhanced. Good try for your first
Brady Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 I'm using the silk icon set from famfamfam.com and the graphics are all my own.
Ehren Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I'm using the silk icon set from famfamfam.com and the graphics are all my own. This one isn't. Its taken from IPB Enhanced. I checked, and theyre exactly the same...not one difference. The icon set is fine, but theyre the same ones as this site, lol. Also, make your tile_cat.gif images 1 pixel wide. At the moment theyre 2000px wide
Brady Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Yes because of the puzzle piece at the front, and I thought I had removed the tile_sub, ill make a new one now --Edit-- New tile_sub image..
Perry Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 The new title_sub image ruined it, sorry. Too much blue. Change it to a different color, lighter. I liked it before, now its too blue.
Brady Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 Ok, its just grey now, until i can make it nicer..
Ehren Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Yes because of the puzzle piece at the front You don't need to do it like that. You can have the puzzle piece as a small image, then have a repeating tile_cat image for the background.
Brady Posted July 21, 2006 Author Posted July 21, 2006 I tried that and then nothing lined up properly. Anyway I've already edited about 90 template bits and I really don't feel like redoing it all.. I need help with one thing though, I don't know where to edit the maintitle for the Warn page.. Can you help?
MrM Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 I need help with one thing though, I don't know where to edit the maintitle for the Warn page.. Can you help? Edit template HTML/Moderator function/warn header Looks good btw.. I'm not 100% sure about the dotted borders around the stats bit tho.. looks messy imo.. hope you dont mind.. I was sitting here bored and i did this..
Brady Posted July 22, 2006 Author Posted July 22, 2006 Edit template HTML/Moderator function/warn header Thank You Looks good btw.. I'm not 100% sure about the dotted borders around the stats bit tho.. looks messy imo..hope you dont mind.. I was sitting here bored and i did this.. And do you mind if I use this?
MrM Posted July 23, 2006 Posted July 23, 2006 And do you mind if I use this? not at all.. I'll upload the logo bit for ya in a .png file shortly as well.. :edit: here ya go.. if you want them in .psp or .psd's or whatever just PM me and I'll mail them over or something..
MrM Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 go look on your forum.. The new background image starts to make my eyes sore after a while.. lol.. maybe softening it a touch would help.. maybe something like this..
Frenzy Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Ghost i dont think the famfamfam icons belong to you so other sites can use them! i do, anyway nice site mate!
Brady Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 Taken down, I have no use for a forum anymore.
