I personally love dark skins:

this one is OK as well!

and best of all they are all free!

EDIT: why just one? Just add 20/30 and ppl could choose which one they want through the UCP!

Alright dude, looks like you found yourself a new task! ;)

I already uploaded Sayang, so we have 2 styles (skins) right now. Why don't you go through the styles and pick another 13 (for a total of 15) that you like and post the links here and we'll upload them.

Remember, you're picking skins for everyone, so pick a couple of girly ones, some simple ones, etc (i.e. keep a nice mix). It's an important and tough job and you'll officially be our SJ - Style Junkie - I mean Jockey ;)

I didnt do any bc sometimes you can gets problems with Mods/Product if its not the basic skin and that means extra work for us, but it doesnt always give problems. I suggest not too many styles bc that also not good for the site speed and it gets a li'l busy/sloppy. 15 is too much.

But Bravo for the innitiative.

Good point Kasra jaan. If there are problems with the Skins, we're going to have to take them out.

First problem, no navbar with the nayang skin. It isnt a really big problem, but its a li'l annoying, but I guess its part of this skin.

I like Sayang better than the default, but it doesn't have enough contrast between the fonts and the background. Isn't there a skin with the same background but slightly lighter fonts, like yellow?

Are you guys seeing the Navigation bar (the one right at the top) with Sayang? If not, I'm going to "revert" that particular secition back to the original, but it's not tested yet, so I don't want to try it unless we have to ;)

Agree IZ jaan, it's a pretty funky skin, but the fonts and smileys are hard to see. I guess Ali's on the mission of finding a few good ones. :)

Wow, this one is really sexy!! lol

this one is nice as well,

http://vbskins.com/theme/city-tales.html

two points about it though, Someone with a bit of PS knowledge should edit the psd file and change the name to our forum.

second of all if we could put a Tehran's skyline that would be even better!

Yeah, not seeing the navbar, did you try to edit the templates yourself? Anywa the admin cp is warning that 3 templates are outdated, all of wich part of Sayang, did you check the compatibility of the skin with 3.8.X/3.8.2 before uploading them ? Thats why I dont upload mods/products not checked for 3.8.X, they might work but its risky.

I downloaded a couple of Skins a while back, most of them were not 3.8.X verified or turkish :D, but I might have a couple of good ones. I just didnt want to add them, bc of a couple of reasons.

Those that I linked to are compatible with 3.7.x. I'm not exactly sure what has changed since then.

Anyway what I suggest is to hire a designer to make a unique template for the site, if 10/15 ppl donate $10 each we can get a nice one made.

I tell you what dude... For every $10 you donate or "raise" from others, we will add one skin. ;)

BTW Sayang is fixed. When can we expect the 1st $10? ;)

Wow the Yellopink is ugly, I was Blind for a couple of seconds. And the buttons dont work either.

Ali jaan, I loaded up your Solido, but the City one has a bit of a theme, so we'll have to come up with a site name and them before we start doing theme ones.

Guys, The first $10 is coming soon (as soon i get home, currently posting through BB), and I will sort out a fundraising for new skin as well... cool

edit: dude solido is really nice!! except that crappy vB logo up there! you know how is good with graphics? Alila I'm gonna tell him to design a nice logo

Bi-Honar
04-16-2009, 12:53 PM
Yeah, that Vbulletin logo is killing me too!
:hanged2:

That's why I suggested we come up with a logo real fast in the other thread. For sure, if you think Alila can come up with something good, tell him to get busy on the drawing board and we will propose it to everyone. :)

I'm using the "disturbed" skin. I like it. Nice and elegant. The colour scheme could be better but it's still nice.

Kasra jan, I feel really stupid asking this but how do I change skins? I am really not very good at this forum business.

Kaesra
04-19-2009, 05:55 PM
You have to go all the way down the page and then you'll see a box that said default style (if you havent changed before) and then just choose one.

Apart from the yellow-pink which bothers my eyes the rest are pretty. Good effort.

Kaesra
04-19-2009, 07:29 PM
Yeah Yellow pink is really bad but Behroo thinks the chicks will like them, LOL , I dont get how though. I use either Solido or Red Clear
