A facelift for CHM???

VERY COOL ! Good job !



Color's awesome, Format's more modern and clean looking, love the details....



Only change I would make would be some sort of line separating each post, so they don't run together. But hey, I could get used to it if I had to.



Very nice. Kudos !

I dig it!

Very cool indeed!

Like the new format.

We will keep working to tweak it just a bit. I want to shrink the logo, add a guitar pic at the top, and brighten up the red in this zone just a bit so that you can see the black background better. I'd also like to get the quote boxes to be black with white lettering instead of white with black lettering.

One thing you might want to look into...At the top and bottom of the page it has a link that says "Locked". Scroll over it and it says "reply to topic". Might need to fix that. I was a little confused and bewildered by that.

That's an error in the skin files. Chris will need to contact vendor to get a corrected image file.

You mean like this? (as Topshot disappears into the ether...)

Yes. I didn't see where I needed to make that change.

I answered that in the Mod Squad.

Lookin good ya'all. Love the guitar masthead ! Very clean and rockin !

Prolly already know, but when you enter a thread, it no longer has a pathway at top. You hafta click on "home" to get back. No biggy, just a change that ppl may hafta get used to.

I've noticed that and would like to rectify that. If you want to go back to the main menu now, just click the logo/pic at the top.

This just keeps getting better and better.

That what I had too.

Fixed. Didn't know anybody ever used that.

Can't do anything about the Locked as the image file itself is bad. I'm not taking the time to create one so we either live with it, Chris asks the vendor of the skin for corrected file or someone like Guilty creates one.

I use that one occasion myself, thanks for replacing it.

WOW!!! is all I can say. I like it!

A few things, which may be requests ( ) or just comments (:thumb: ):
1- I thought the font would be a little bigger, Alldatndensum? I know you've talked about that a lot and I'm surprised it's so small. I myself have trouble reading it.
2- "Locked" - you've noted that, so that's good.
3- Sweet Schecter! I like it. :thumb:
4- Mobile skin is still the same, all good. :thumb:
5- The "profile" "PM" buttons look a little weird. I figured out they were guitar heads but they look weird. The text looks a little squished.
6- No bass love?

Once again, I like it, despite comments 1, 5 and 6. Thanks Alldat!

Actually, the font is the same size that it was. I can increase it if more people want me to. You were the one complaining that it was too big before. However, I have it on the same 12 font that it was after the increase.

As for number 5 & 6, I can't change either. Seeing that this was a skin and not something I made, the text in the buttons will remain the same size. Also, the guitar was made into the skin and did not give you the choice of bass or guitar. I play both, so it doesn't bother me. You'll just have to learn to live with it.

When the font can be a little bit bigger will it make me a bit more happy.

I have made it a 16 font and changed the color from light gray to white to make it contrast better on the background color. Those changes should make it easier to read.

Except you didn't do it in the CSS so it had no effect. I changed it late last night.

What do you mean "in the CSS"? Some of us are just normal humans that don't speak computer geek fluently.

When you're in the Colors area (where you've been editing colors and font size with little to no apparent effect), the other tab there is "CSS Stylesheet". It is set up to take precedence over the other tab. You'll note I just changed font size to 8 in the Colors tab and it hasn't done anything.

It isn't user friendly at all and I myself don't know or use CSS but since I'm a programmer, I know enough of what to look for to change basic stuff like colors and font size.

It appears you can disable the CSS but I bet you lose functionality of the skin. CSS is far more powerful than the basic interface of the Colors tab.

Oh, and CSS = Cascading Style Sheet

Oh yeah… one small thing changed on the mobile version. Alldatndensum's name shows up in bold red in the post header; it used to be normal white.
