Basically all the regulars have voted and majority said blue/orange.

Is it theoretically possible to Get EVERYONE to agree on this? And who exactly is included in this "everyone"? All the forum membership? Everybody in the world?

Yeah true. But just giving a bit more chance in case there ends up being more disagreements since everyone will be stuck with it afterwards.

But I'm most likely going to go with it. Might even start tomorow and have it up by the night but it's not for sure.

Right now I've been monitoring some worm hitting at Iceteks about 8000 hits so far based on stats downloaded early today. It has not hit AF though which I find odd since this worm targets forums in general. Though it does look for the keywords phpbb because the worm exploits phpbb. Oh crap I just said phpbb.

Like a virus, but it travels via security exploits in sites/servers.

I, too, think a Star Wars theme would be cool, but as long as Red makes it look good I'm up for anything.

Man I hate IPBs way of organizing stuff... horrible! They sure blew it on the skin system.

I don't know man, this is rediculous. I think we'll have to stick with default until I get a better board system up since IPB is horrible. There's a billion different css classes with obscure names and finding the right ones for each element is a PIA. Been almost an hour and I hardly got anything done.

You can do it Red.

Red Squirrel · Post by **Red Squirrel** » Mon Dec 27, 2004 5:28 pm

I'm going to look if there's any premade css templates... not really original to do this but at least it's a step away from default.

Red is currently thinking of mailing everyone paintbrushes and tubes of blue and orange paint so we can do up our screens ourselves.

I pretty much butched my LAN installation of IPB and won't be able to restore the curent DB until I'm done the Iceteks cybervillage (don't want to overwrite that DB

) so for now no skin. Sorry.

Though I'm trying to figure out why I can't upload skins since I might just upload one, or look at the tar.gz file and see if it's easier to edit that way.

red you even said you didn't know IPB 2.x.x so when magic stated that you where in charge i know something was going to change. It really didn't take long for ya to tamper with files.

By trying stuff I just realized that I hated IPB 2.0 that's all. So yes things will change at some point. Though for now I will try to get that skin importer to work so I can import a premade skin. Magic did pay for this board so I still want to avoid switching any time soon.
