Christmas skin

[Chippiewill]

I have a little complaint, someone needs to make the skin have a fluid width rather than fixed width, it will allow images to be centred more when oversized.

[The Professor]

Personally i prefer fixed width, idk whether thats just me but yknow

I agree, I prefer fluid width.

Oh you are going to hate the new ones :eusa_whis.

Cant you make them in both - fixed and fluid? "/ I dislike fluid.

[Jamesy]

Then you end up with 2 of every skin, twice as much to maintain and then you have to either make them narrow to suit all resolutions or wider and then people moan about scroll bars.

So ultimately not ideally, no.

[Seatherny]

Will any of the current Skins stay on the new vB?
And atleast make some fixed ones "/

None of the current skins will be compatible. Which is why we made new ones - except for classic which looks as near identical as possible.

Fixed ones will be something to discuss in the future.

[Seatherny]

Well thats crap "/ I prefer fixed ones as I cannot stand fluid ones.

[hah]

MAKE THEM ALL NARROW CAUSE WIDE SKINS ARE BARF

and make the banners fit the skin not like habbox where they are tiny

[Seatherny]

Atleast show us the screenshots and let us pick a few to be fixed ...

"that's crap cos I disagree with something"

Hopefully the graphics department will be kind and agree with you, my temporary ones are a tad on the plain side :P

No, I said its crap as all skins will be fluid. I can assure you, do a vote and a good number of members prefer fixed.
:rolleyes:

[hah]

i dont even know the diff between them what is it

With PHPBB3 you can set two skins to have the same Images and structure but give them separate CSS files to change width.

I prefer fluid - because I have a large monitor at home and as monitors get larger, there'll be a need for fluid-width sites.

[Seatherny]

Actually ignore what I was moaning about, I got confused, so apologies to Jamesy.

Actually buddy most people wont know the difference, you included as you just proved on msn that you have no idea what your on about :D.

Fluid makes much more sense than fixed width. Though we do hope to have a range of styles for currently we are focusing on the 4 important ones which are,



Site skin
classic skin
non-habbo dark skin
non-habbox light skin

[Seatherny]

Would it be possible to slowly get all the current skins on it e.g. Retro Blue Skin?

[Chippiewill]

non-habbox light skin


:O how is it non-habbox?

[Seatherny]

We don't currently have a non-habbo(x) light skin do we? The dark skin isnt that bad actually.

[Jamesy]

Accepted :)

Blue Retro is similar to the Classic, which I've ported so shouldn't be too difficult in the future


:O how is it non-habbox?

It's arriving on time, that's how :eusa_danc

I would +rep but I need to spread.

How come people get so passionate about new skins? If you're any way near as attached to a particular one as I am, you would never change to a new one! I'd probably leave if the Retro Blue was taken away, unless there are any others that are fairly similar :P.

Retro Blue ftw :eusa_clap Love that skin.

May take a vote on which we should attempt to import over but you will need to bare with us as it does take a lot of time and dedication from one particular feller.
