Christmas skin

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
