vbulletin.org look alike 3.8.x [950] fixed!

Well if you want to add more vbulletin.org look try using these modification

chief first post

and modification system similar to vbulletin.org but this one is bit tricky.. and you may not need it..

Chief first post can be used though..

They removed the rating system mod but I will try to check my back ups to see I have it..

Hi i like your work but can you fix this error when i loging! I am using Firefox 3.0.6

ok here is the solution

go to

edit templates and edit STANDARD_REDIRECT template and find this line

PHP:
<form action="$formfile" method="post" name="postvarform">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="70%" align="center">

change the width to suit your need! 50 or 6o% will be fine!

have fun..
 
very nice style m8

is there anychance u can redo the style (xml file) so it will change colors like it does on vb.org

Is 4 colors in the footer and the user can pick a new color
 
Thanks mmmxiv I think many are going to realize their dream of having a style like vb.org lol. I wish the official vbulletin.org make some more changes so that we can create another set of new skin lol..
 
you want to make it like vBorg, then above and beyond too, like, vBorg only have red, blue, green, purple, white.

We need to add a dark blue, black, grey, yellow, orange, dark green. and then maybe some textured backgrounds too, like army texture etc.

I think it would work. But alas! Who has time for so many skins?!
 
lol I requested some PSD files from hoxxy.. I hope he still has them.. if he does I will make a new skin on any color requested!! hehe.. I have some time now.. so I hope he can provide me the PSDs so that I will release this skin in plenty of other colors.. lol

regards
 
I will try to work on existing image files with photoshop and try to release this skin in other colors.. will take some time though..

regards

how do you edit the names/links of the tabs under the login box?

look in the header template for
PHP:
</tr><tr>
<td width="100%" align="right">
	<a href="http://www.yoursite.com//" class="tab">EEEE </a>
	<a href="http://www.yoursite.com//" class="tab">AAAA</a>
	<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/" class="tab">ZZZZ</a>
	<a href="http://www.yoursite.com//" class="tab">YYY </a>
	<a href="http://www.yoursite.com/" class="tab">News</a>

 </td>
</tr ></table>

change the values to your needs!

thats it! enjoy the skin!!
