New Theme(s)

[scottish]

Can I ask, why have you never used external themes? Such as ones from vb.org

I'm not sure about others but I certainly have no interest in having Habbo plastered over my screen, which limits me to non habbo dark skin pretty much.

Wouldn't it be beneficial to offer various themes from other sources? These also mostly come with properly skinned shops etc which custom skins on here seem to lack (and need to be fixed anytime you add something)

[Chris]

I suppose we could have a look, but you seem to be forgetting that there are 3 non habbo skins already available.

[scottish]

Yeah, there's non habbo light skin (I hate bright/white skins) and Pink skin (do I even need to comment)?

I'd like to spice my view up with a new skin but I'm limited to Non Habbo Dark Skin as the only 'dark' skin available

I don't see any issues as to why we wouldn't be able to use another skin from places like vb.org.

Is it not possible to have one that doesn't have HABBOXFORUM in massive lettering at the top :( I wanna use habboxforum on my ipad at sixth form but I cantttttttt :'(

What about Habboxed? :P

So an unbranded skin? :P Well we could remove the Habbox writing from the Habboxed skin.

[scottish]

Habboxed is a bright/white skin as well

[Hannah]

Habboxed is also very bulky and unappealing.

Though I understand it is impossible to cater for everyone - the non-habbo skins are very limited.

Yesss
That would be better than nothing tbh

[Chris]

Feel free to find some themes to post here if you want.

[scottish]

Did you's really pay $170 for copyright removal on vBulletin? or did you's illegally remove it?

regardless, what version are we on

[MKR&*42]

Habboxed is the best back off

[Chris]

No, it's at the bottom of the forum. Version 4.2.2

[scottish]

It's not on Non Habbo Dark lol

'Avenger' (dark theme) - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=312369

For other people wanting to suggest some, the best place to find free ones would probably be here; http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=247

There's plenty of other theme websites (themeforest, pubevb, etc) but they'll all cost upwards of $10 per theme and I doubt hx would pay :P

I'll bump since the post merged and you probably didn't notice it.

[Nick]

Avenger is really nice

seems like a nice 'basic' theme

[James]

I really like that Avengers one actually. I'd definitely use that if it was added.

[David]

get him to put your email on the license for future things?

[lawrawrrr]

Can we actually update the banner at the top so it doesn't say HabboxForum? Would be a hell of a lot easier to... disguise the forum! We could create a little non-habbo banner with just an H in or something, no Habbos or anything. I like that idea!

Black/Red would be fab. ;p

I can ask but whether he does that is up to him or whoever the licence actually belongs to. :P

You mean on Habboxed or any new skins we get?

[scottish]

New skins definitely shouldn't have habbox anywhere on it :P

Didn't see this earlier, would fully support this

Current skins - all our "Non Habbo" skins have "HABBOXFORUM" plastered over the top, not very discreet!

[Chris]

Oh I know that :P We'll see, if it bugs people that much then they can be removed.

[scottish]

It's not that it bugs people, it's the fact people like to use HxF in public locations or around others, and don't want HABBO on it anywhere :P

[lawrawrrr]

It's not really a bug thing but it's hardly a non-habbo skin when HABBOX is plastered on the top! People might be more likely to use it in public or around people if it wasn't so obvious - I definitely would. I'd be happy to make a simple style logo to replace the current text if you'd like?

Yeah if you want to then thats cool. Either that or we just have the logo space blank :P

[scottish]

Have a toggle-able option to set logo or disable logo? :P

[scottish]

Any updates?

[Chris]

Nope. I asked Matt to download them the other day. I'll ask again tonight.

One of them is installed - Requires further changes due to the custom stuff we have added over the years. It's getting there though.

[scottish]

which one? when are you likely to release it.

[xxMATTGxx]

Avenger I think it's called? If we released it now you would only complain about profiles looking dodgy and the other stuff. Hopefully at the weekend if all goes well.

[scottish]

Ah, are you looking to add more down the line, or just going to add this one?

[xxMATTGxx]

Yeah, thought I would start with one and go from there.

[Kyle]

Can we also have a skin that rebrands everybody's avatars. Annoying when I'm browsing hxf in a lecture and I scroll past one of Inseriousity or mattgs posts

So are new skins/themes happening?

[Chris]

Yes, soon.

Yes, soon.
Sorry that looked like a dig, I wasn't hinting at "hurry up", i meant like.. I didn't know if there was an actual conclusion reached.

[Chris]

Yeah there is one that we added :P Just needs some tweaks doing to it at the moment.

[Empired]

Great to see General Management listening to the community and reacting to the feedback they give. Laura with the feedback for The Box, Chris with the skins.. I don't think anyone has raised any issues specific to the community-side of things so Sho hasn't got anything to do yet. But still hope you're gonna be keeping this up, GM team xx

Someone suggested having the option to hide the Habboxforum banner on all skins. I like that idea a lot and would definitely use it if I had the option.

[scottish]

anything?

week gone by since it was estimated to be released.

[Chris]

It's not my priority at the moment. If someone else with relevant permissions wants to tinker with it then they can.

[scottish]

what exactly is your priority then

[Chris]

what exactly is your priority then

Christmas.

[scottish]

Christmas skin, new.

[dbgtz]

Does a new skin really matter? If anything you should just get rid of everything except Classic Skin, since that is clearly the best.

[Chris]

Christmas skin, new.

No new xmas skin.

[David]

No new xmas skin.

get a xmas banner/footer for the dojo skin

or make it optional

[AgnesIO]

Christmas.

So the new skin is going to be released in 2015?

You saw it here first, folks!

(At least it will be before V7 ;))

[scottish]

v7 won't be released

Maybe, maybe not. It depends when I get chance to do it.

Yes it will. Eventually.

[-Nick]

Yes it will. Eventually.

I am slightly confused. The whole idea for the forum to get a completely non Habbo skin was to not have habbo on it? If some features are missing - presuming e.g forum shop, snow flakes etc.. Why would you need to use them in public, if it's urgent, you could also switch over to a skin which does have the feature. Just switch on the skin?

[Chris]

I can switch the skin on now if people want it yeah.

[-Nick]

I can switch the skin on now if people want it yeah.

Yes then. Just say in announcements no complaining bugs/features will be added in due course.

[James]

Yes please!

[AgnesIO]

Really like the new skin. Much easier to read text than the other non-habbo skin too :) Cheers

[-Nick]

The only annoying thing right now is this http://prntscr.com/59sc9y but it's not urgent.

[Alkaz]

I actually quite like the new skin (Y)

[scottish]

Yeah, love the new skin (obviously) but think I'll wait until bugs are ironed out.

I'm very observant and things annoy me.

[James]

This is definitely my new permanent skin tbh. It'll obv be better with the bugs being fixed but love it already.

[Chris]

I've taken off the logo for those who want it plain.

[sexpot]

This is awesome.

[AgnesIO]

Quite an easy way to please a lot of forum members, it seems.
