Bloodrun Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 who knew, forum skins could be such "fun" to make.ive recently took up the project of "making" forum skins, and i have to say, im coming along rather good. Like many, my first try was a little iffy.My second attempt, was a little harder, as i took on a bigger project, and last but not least, my third attempt, brought a um "interesting" (words of Darth, which in his terms means, mehh, i dont like it, but i would defenitaly hang it up in my dining room wall) skin, which is under the theme of the Olympics.My question to you, the random viewer of this thread, rather right, or WRONG. How do you like forum skins? do you make forum skins? etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyber Altair Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 i can make them and you can code them =D what do you say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KAJN Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Lol they are very easy to make. CSS and HTML codes are for kids. But lets see if YCMaker can upload them for the forum. This may be good but we can't do anything. Oh edited: Um yeah I uploaded some skins for people in GFXVoid and other places. They are fun to make and these things but sometimes they can be a pain.

Guest KAJN Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Don't get your hopes up. I made once an awesome Naruto Skin for a forum. Unfortunately the admin didn't stick it up. Even though I was Global I couldn't touch the skin section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyber Altair Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 some admins are gay, other like YCMaker might change if the skin is really good and in this case the skin has been around way too much =\ we need a change =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Static Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 But can you make a skin to match the layout of this forum? If you can do that, then you can perhaps get skins installed, I mean, he did add a warn system *cough*ensured my doom*cough*, so whose to say he wouldn't add other cool stuff to the site. Honestly, make a cool skin (no Theme, just cool colors), and a Yugioh one so it matches the theme of the site, and see if YCMaker would be willing to add them. I would humbly request a "Marines" colored one and a "Red Army" colored one, because I'm cool like that, but that's just me. Honestly, if you can get permission to make them, and have him say he would possibly accept them, then you should totally hold a vote on which ideas people like the best.

bury the year Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I was just talking about this... It's a cool idea. Maybe it could be integrated into the "auto-shop" idea that's been floating around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Static Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 ^^ no. Skins are for anyone to use, no cost required. You just get a list at the bottom of the forum, and mods also get the ones that do not completely work, but look pretty cool for the most part.

Pikachu Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 i have always wanted a cool forum skin....too bad there isn't any....not for this forum at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zephyrmon Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I make forums skins but its a pain in the neck it takes so much time so lately I've only made 1 for a website it had to be based on the Olympics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 actually a question:how do you exactly make one?is there a tut in the tut section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Jono Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've tried, once, and failed badly. -_- I could never be bothered to learn. Which explains my horrible sigs. Anyways, even if you do make a skin, what's the chance YCMakers going to bother looking at the thread? But it's worth a shot. Good Luck.^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KAJN Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Lawl Ashje. It's easy you just have to learn about CSS and HTML codes. Not that hard. But since you asked........... Anyway we could but I'm not entirely sure that a BB will accept skins. Maybe an IPB but not sure about a BB forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Jono Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 IPB works with skins, and there's a graphics section in BB which may contain skins. EDIT:It's actually in the Themes section. Though they are simple they are still skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and i'll make a red army skin just for j00 Static.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KAJN Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Lol it's easy. I spent a few months with it. I can even make member names in tabs and these things. I can change the whole coding for the Card maker skin. Give it a little of sprinkle of smexiness and I would work on other things too. But we have to make a campaign XD.
