PoLiX Posted February 26, 2012 Report Posted February 26, 2012 In order to allow the website to function more like a website, I went out to find a skin that fit our needs. I lack the time to really go through the efforts it can take to create a good solid custom skin. Older versions of IPB were simpler and took less time, but the current versions really take a good chunk of time to do everything properly. The skin is called "Gravity Blue" and is now selectable for preview as work is done to fix any bugs in the skin, and add links to the content. When the skin launches, you will also notice a change in the default url of the site. Instead of just http://www.subspace.co/ you will be pointed at http://www.subspace.co/index . This is due to me changing the way IP.Content and the forums function. Having http://www.subspace.co/c/news/ compared to http://www.subspace.co/news/ seems a bit odd. Being all the content generated directly by the forum software is outside of the /c/ folder, it also makes it seem just that much more half-assed imo. You won't have to type anything beyond the normal http://www.subspace.co/ or update your bookmarks, as the forum will automatically redirect you to this new url. This is all just a step in the direction of finally having more content finished on this site, and a new admin team who has the time to devote to it. Will keep you all updated. Quote
PoLiX Posted February 26, 2012 Author Report Posted February 26, 2012 Set default forum skin for everyone. Should find bugs faster this way, and will allow me to not have to set any links to '/c/' only to have to fix all of them later. Quote
Cheese Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 can we please offer an option that doesnt come in eye searing white Quote
Drake7707 Posted February 28, 2012 Report Posted February 28, 2012 Looks good, haven't found any problem thus far (using the latest version of Opera) Quote
PoLiX Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Posted February 29, 2012 Only bugs I have found is in IE and Google. IE: Mark this Forum as Read button on forum page, and Go to first unread post on topic page are gray font with blue background. Google (maybe opera/FF): the font on some parts of the forum defaults to another font and looks distorted on some smaller text. Larger text is just noticeably different from rest of forum font. Quote
»Axe Demento Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Opera is enjoying the new look without complaints ...Axe Quote
PoLiX Posted March 10, 2012 Author Report Posted March 10, 2012 Fixed the font issues plaguing Chrome and a few other browsers. Forum looks the same in IE and Chrome now as far as font is concerned. Just need to fix the button issues with IE. Quote
