View Full Version : New Feature: Different CF Color Schemes/ Styles


Erwin
21st December 2003, 03:21 AM
This was done mainly for a particular member who could not tolerate our bright color scheme. I already had color schemes from the past, which I have decided to throw together so that members are not restricted to our default color scheme.

There is now a drop down menu in your User CP, Options, OR you can easily change the color scheme/ style on the CF Homepage. :)

As always, doesn't seem to be working for me. :) I can't actually find the drop-down menu in my Options page. The pop-up on the home page redirects me to:

http://christianforums.com/index.php?styleid=3

but it looks the same.

Oops... you can change styles now. :)

I may be forced to accept your claim on faith, because I can't find any evidence for it, whether I use the "Mozilla 1.5.1" hermenutic or the "Safari" hermeneutic. :)

Hmmm.... :scratch:

I can't seem to find the option in my UserCP. And, when I change the option through the drop-down menu on the home page, it doesn't seem to do anything.

/me thinks Erwin must have been really busy yesterday!

Peace,

WJ

Top right of the home page. I can't make it work, but that's where it is.

I actually noticed tis feature today. It does not seem to be loading correctly though. Two options possibly:

1. Modification script is not installed right.

2. There is a setting from admin cp that will cause all styles to override to default style for members.

Thanks. I tried those drop down links and they did not work either. I even cleared out my cookies and files and nope no change :(

It doesn't work fo me, either, and I'm that particular member who is having the problem. I'm sorry this is such a hassle for you, Erwin. *hangs head*

Erwin

BIG OOPS!!!

I thought I had reset it, but I apparently had not. Weird.

Okay, they should work now. :)

You can do this on the forum home page, or in your User CP, Options, right at the bottom.

Woo! Silver looks a little weird in my browser, but it's SO MUCH NICER than the orange thing that I will be happy anyway.

My favorite is blue. But Erwin can you change the image for the forums that are new? It is still a white background on blue.

Like I said, there are details that need to be tidied up. :) I will do this when I find time.

In the purple one (which I really like), the lines that enclose the posts do not go all the way around the post. There are vertical lines that go down either side of the Member information section, but not down past the post, nor is there a line across the bottom...

Just another one of those details to be tidied up!

Looks gr8!

Peace,

WJ

Hey! it works now, Great! gg

I like the dark orange but all the black text in the forums wont show up in the field.

Erwin, you da mannnnnnnnnnnn you da mannnnnnnnnnnnnn

This blue skin is aweeeeesome. The dark orange I'm feeling too. But that would be for one of my deeper mood days :) That purple is rocking too. For now the blue will be my skin of choice. I just love the vibe and energy of the blue. It just works for me :clap:

I'm sorry, Erwin, but none of them are bland enough, and it just isn't reasonable for you to do so much work on behalf of one member. Thank you so much for trying; I do appreciate it. :)

Hey Erwin I just thought of something. You should make different schemes and styles for holidays and other occasions. That would be really cool.

I added a "Greyscale" version which should be quite bland.

This probably wouldn't solve the contrast problem, but maybe it's worth a try. I inadvertently stumbled into the text only version of the site tonight. Only I don't see a link to it anywhere. I think I clicked somewhere on the right side of the header and ended up in text only. Where is that link?

EDIT: Ooh! I LIKE the gray scale! :)

Edit: I notice that the "Jesus is the Reason for the Season" graphic is also a link to text only. I think that's where I had clicked before.

I would too, The site is back to slow mode again after being faster for a while. I am thinking text only may load easier
