Sure. BTW, the header is cool but could use the one that is on Glest site? Cause that's even cooler.  :thumbup:

COOL! I like it!  Only prob is when your posting, the white back-ground and all the feature buttons look odd.

Also the smiles look like this right?

I think it should just have a button that opens the more window and all the smiles are there.

yeah, but the smilies should still be where they are, but they should also be in the "smiley" tab too as you said.

I'm still not sure what you mean by the 'clashing' off grey, black, and white. With the grey and black background, it is NECESSARY to use white text to have it show up.
Also, something is wrong with the...  ::)

What is wrong with it? Are you refering to the slight bit of white around the buttons? I suppose I MIGHT be able to fix that by replacing the alpha with an actual grey, although it would mean no background changes (ie: it's grey now, it'll always be grey).

While its true the black in the background is a pretty strong contrast, I dont know any alternatives. I based it off tucho's earlier example, which also had a black background. No other color seems to look right... Why don't you take a picture, then use a paint bucket tool to recolor the background and compare the different colors? :|

@@Kukac@ - Hmmm... :thumbup: If you can confirm that you have the rights to use that image, I'll use it. Looking at its current link, it appears to be another forum board.

Well, I guess...
Then even though this new theme is cool, I guess I just won't switch. Color is a big thing.  ::) No offense, it's still cool.  :thumbup: Just...  :|
I thought brown or light brown was...  ::)

I agree with Elim.

The right one needs to be completely colorless, and the colored one needs to be more intense.

I could probably help a little there........if you wanted I could whip up some copies of those images with some changes in GIMP. :D

Be my guest arch. The one on the right can be black and white, BUT the background color MUST NOT change, since it must be the same color, as I opted against transparency (didn't work well at the border).

Ah, I can do it myself. Real men work from SCRATCH using Paint.NET (the Gimp has some problems with RGB sometimes).

Concerning the smilies, there is no easy way to do that and I don't want to hack the engine (what a mess that would be when it comes to time to update (which is only a matter of time since the RC of version 2 SMF has been out for a bit. Once it's stable, it's update time).

Anyways...from the other topic:

Omega didn't fix that yet... I think.  ::)
Whats wrong with the youtube button?
Umm... it's not there....  ::)  (for me at least  ::)
Modman probably has a different problem...I think.  :|

Ok, I'm going to fix the youtube thing (pretty sure I know what's wrong). I'll edit my post if I'm successful. Looks like I gotta use the spoiler tag too.

So is that what brought the forum down?
Is it fixed now?

Can we safely use the Glest theme on the board?  :-\

Omega (and the "makers" of the theme): i dont know... but maybe the problem with the forum was something in the themes folder.

I had to reinstall the forum and copy the folders one to one (Smiles, Avatars, Themes)

The new Glest theme is ¡amazing!

Thank you very much for bringing the forum back up then, josepzin!  8)

And yes, I'm using the new theme now and I'm loving it!  :thumbup:

BTW, omega, you say on the theme's description it's based on media by tucho... Didn't you mean by josepzin?  :-\

Hey guys, I've uploaded the new fixed theme and deleted the old one... :P
So sorry, you'll have to reset it to that in your profile page... :look:

I'm thinking of setting it as a default. What do you guys think? If I get enough people to agree, I'll make it the default and set everyone to it. Of course, if you want to use the SMF default (the 'Core' theme), you can select it from your settings.

Anyway, change log:
-Fixed Youtube tag, should be working now.
-Ditto for spoiler tag.
-Changed the style sheet to format the spoilers better.

TESTS:
(click to show/hide)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QyYaPWasos

EDIT// Ugh, had to reinstall the youtube and spoiler tags mods because they were lost when the glest team reinstalled the forum, however, as you can see, it's working now. Watch the video for thrills though! (WARNING: Explicit Language) Hey jozepin, since you have access to the server, could you delete the contents of the uploads folder, which is a temporary folder storing things uploaded, primarily the zips and stuff for the mods I've installed (such as Youtube BBC). Had some trouble reinstalling the mods because the files already existed and had to rename. Plus, the folder is taking up a lot of junk. Can't be sure, but you may want to check what you delete of course, everything deletable is an archive of some sort (mostly tar.gz and .zip).

BTW, omega, you say on the theme's description it's based on media by tucho... Didn't you mean by josepzin?  :-\
OH NO!!! Sooooo sorry josepzin, this is very unbecoming of me. I'll fix it immediately for the next release, as you definately deserve the credit! But before I go through another painful upload, is there anything else that needs to be fixed/changed at the same time?

So you're not using this as the header, right?  ::)

Omega: Oh, forgot about that! Can I get a vote?

Also, so sorry for modifying your post, ment to modify mine, but wasn't paying very much attention at all. My apologies.
