Skydance Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Question: am I comparing these forums to the "old" ones at eq2players.com, or am I comparing them to the "old" ones we had last night, with all the different template choices?

Zyco Posted May 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 To the SoE boards, Ash said there are some issues with all those 'skins' he added and it may be a bit before we see some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 We'll be sticking with the default subSilver skin for a while. I want to focus on enhancing functionality first, and not all mods are compatible with third-party skins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyroglyphix Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I've pieced together custom skins for boards like this, it's not hard but it takes time. Usually works best to just modify an existing skin, swapping a graphics file here and there. I'll get to work on some graphics, I like some of you guys' ideas, and have some cool stuff in the works for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Hmm where's the maybe option? I can't get into the other sections so can't really comment as yet Millex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashin Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I'm currently looking into portal software, which would basically wrap around our forums to give us things like calenders and screenshot galleries. Different portals offer different degrees of compatibility with skinned or modded installations of phpBB. The graphics are tricky to customize on your own without understanding the php programming language, as everything is imbedded in there. On the other hand skins are easy enough to install (had about 10 of them running on these boards last night), but tend to bring up lots of compatibility problems with portals and various mods that improve core functions.

I can't get into the other sections so can't really comment as yet Millex That's because you need to post so I know you are here and can set up your proper permissions. You are good to go sir; I hope Chabs enjoyed his brief respite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
