That's not very nice.

STM 01-21-2011 09:09 AM

Gah fuck you you pessimistic bastard. I have no idea what I'm going to add but if you have a question ask me and I'll try to answer!

@MM you tell him!

T-nex 01-21-2011 11:54 AM

Oh let him have his moment <.<

Edit: In response to Oanst.

Edit edit: But really STM.... If you wanna do this, I'm preeeetty sure, you'll need to learn the set up of the forum and stylesheets and stuff. Which only admins have access to.

If you know nothing about CSS or HTML, I dunno if this project will come to fruitation. But then again, I don't even know how the themes work.
I'm just saying, be wary that you wont just do work that will go to waste... If you get past all the theory and code learning or course.

STM 01-21-2011 12:11 PM

I have some knowledge of HTML but I'm not finished learning...and before I need the style sheets I need to create bitmaps and stuff...fonts...indents and stuff like that.

Oh, and this isn't a moment, I'm generally trying to give something back to the forum.

I don't think you know what you're doing.

T-nex 01-21-2011 12:29 PM

Yea really...


Anyway, one of the ways to do it is to just create the image, and then slice it up later.... but really. Yea need to know all the different blocks and stuff. X_x

And to create this stylesheet, I'm pretty pretty sure that you'll have to co-operate with one of the admins. But I think Alcar is the only one who can implement it.

STM 01-21-2011 12:30 PM

Hmm, so T-Nex...your an admin...wanna help? XD

T-nex 01-21-2011 12:33 PM

I'm a mod. Not an admin <.<
Ask Nate or Wil :) I'm sure they will help..... if you.. bribe them.

Manco 01-21-2011 12:33 PM

Moderator =/= administrator.

If Alcar could throw up a theme pack for people to do with as they please, that would be nice.

T-nex 01-21-2011 12:34 PM

Yea... how would that be done though? Who knows...

If I knew the system, I might actually have found the sparetime to give it a crack :p I love doing graphical work. And I love working with code. But I don't. So meh.

Manco 01-21-2011 12:35 PM

I guess as a last resort you could go through the forum and save every image you could, and reverse-engineer a new theme from there.

T-nex 01-21-2011 12:36 PM

Fuck no :p I'm not that masochistic.

STM 01-21-2011 12:39 PM

Hmm, welp...before I do anything I need to end this poll, I'll give it two or three days before I decide.

With oral sex. And I want a Grubbs theme.

STM 01-21-2011 02:49 PM

They wish and no. ;)

We take bribes, sure, but can't really help all that much. This is more of an Alcar or Cloverfield thing.

Phylum 01-21-2011 03:50 PM

I don't think Alcar would help you put one together because then he'd be expected to implement it.

Alcar 01-21-2011 08:03 PM

Awwww, you guys! <3

You don't need the templates or whatever from the back-end. If you are able to style this page (showthread) with the available HTML and CSS, I would be able to take that and do the template magic for everything else.

Alcar...

STM 01-22-2011 01:49 AM

Right, so I need to make all the images...font...boxes etc. It looks like it's gonna swing towards Necrum as well.

Dixanadu 01-22-2011 04:48 AM

I like the Industrial theme, I don't see how anything could be better.

I wouldn't mind a Necrum one, if it met the expectations that I constructed in my head.

I prefer the paramonian theme because I think I've had it almost unchanged since I joined. Also I love paramonia.

MeechMunchie 01-22-2011 07:14 AM

The Industrial theme hurts my eyes after a while, the bright white lettering on dark blue didn't seem particularly sensible. I like the neutral colours of Native, personally. Clear to see and easy to read.

And I'm pretty sure there's some psychological effect at work. All the nutters here seem to use Industrial.

MeechMunchie 01-22-2011 07:30 AM

I never said being a nutter made you uncool. I just said it made you a nutter.
