I couldn't install it on my vB 3.8.8 forum.

Got this error message:

Ok I did, but this file doesn't seem compatible, look at all the Formatting buttons are gone and replaced by text

I did copy the style folder to the root of my forum:

I did copy the style folder to the root of my forum:

The images aren't located where the script is calling. Right click on the text, choose "view image" and see where the calls point to.

Some of these custom styles require the images to be posted in the /images folder instead of root.

thanks a lot man. I got it figured out, very poorly written instructions I must say but the style looks great

I deleted it though coz the smilies look funny on the dark background they have like a white border across them

That's a easy fix. Find a set of smilies for dark themes, and upload them and point the style to that folder.

That's not a problem with the style, it is a problem with the default smilies which are intended for use with a light background.

Last question man

with the default style, in order to add a HOME link at the top left of the forum main page, I had to add this code:

Go into the navbar template, and find:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Above the if condition, you can add:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

[B]

Now in this style, I cannot find:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[user_cp]</a></td>
</if>

so where shall I place the code?

Really can't help without looking at the entire navbar template.

Where are you getting these instructions, what thread?

[ShawneyJ]

try looking for parts of the code like usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q] or $vbphrase[user_cp].

EDIT: find:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

and then add your code above it.

Edit again:

Wth, its the same code as you posted. You sure youre looking in Navbar template?

ahh, maybe its a problem with your first code, it has a gap in "<a href=" so look for the code i pasted above.

ok I found a black background set of smilies and post icons

check it out how it looks now:

[ShawneyJ]

no worries.

your style is not meant to look like that, it has missing images. which is not your fault, the guy that made the style was lazy.

go to all style options, scroll down and change the following:
4 changes.
find: Category Strips, Table Header, and Popup Menu Controls.
The background is set at: sleekblack for all 3.
change sleekblack to blackred.
maybe Ctrl-f to find all the sleekblack.
lastly find Image Paths>>Title Image and change to: blackred/logo.png

now you'll be more happy im sure

Wow that is a good looking but very sloppy style!

can you check now? I did what you suggested to the dot

I can't find any decent logo.

I searched for a red vbulletin logo but couldn't find one

can someone please suggest a logo? I don't want to just randomly steal some site's logo for copyright issues I just want a decent vBulletin logo

[ShawneyJ]

much better

although that style certainly needs some work to fit into the PC Support look.
i mite have time to mess around with the style and add some images and a logo for you if you want?

If you want it red, make it red. Use a free program such as the Gimp, or Irfanview.
