Topic: SpinkBB 1.3 !

Hello,
sorry for my english, i'm french smile.

For those who don't know SpinkBB yet, it is a styles generator for PunBB; a graphic interface whose goal is to colorize your forum easily.
Former version : http://www.jsand.net/spinkbb

The newer version radically changes its spirit to offer a larger interactive functionning way and evoluated possibilities (import, permanent save, public preview, browsing the whole script, etc.)

SpinkBB 1.3 beta :
http://spinkbb.jsand.net/punbb

I need some help to :
- fully test and precisely report bugs so that we can correct them together
- possibly translate this file into other languages

The languages file :
http://spinkbb.jsand.net/Langues.js
(Display > Encoding > UTF-8 under Firefox, if you see anormal characters)

Javascript Preview of an example entirely made with SpinkBB

I need your reactions, thanks ...

Re: SpinkBB 1.3 !

I was expecting something more like the old one (randomize, base the whole theme on one color, invert).

Re: SpinkBB 1.3 !

I'm split on this one. I really like this version, and i think I would actually use it when starting my own themes, however for a normal user, it might be hard work and a long process to go through compared with the old version.

Sorry. Unactive due to personal life.

Re: SpinkBB 1.3 !

Hello Ju!

The CSS generator you developed is great!

I've managed to customize most of the parts of my forum. However, I did not manage to customize the pages related to the PMs of my forum.

This is because when I registered and created a profile at http://spinkbb.jsand.net/punbb I didnt get the feature of sending personal messages. So I couldn't get the CSS for those windows.
As a result, my private message windows are not aligned with the colours of my forum.

Is there a way to fix this? Please help!

Thanks!!

NN

Re: SpinkBB 1.3 !

Hey Ju!

Thank you for the link. The version was a very good update! Now the customised colours of the forum looks like the colours of the rest website. Take a look of the result: http://www.iamexpat.nl/forum/index.php

For your information, some css did not work and I adjusted them myself a bit:

CSS to change hover colour of the forum subject:

BODY DIV#brd-wrap DIV.brd-page DIV#brd-main DIV.main-content DIV.main-item DIV.item-subject H3.hn A:hover {
    color: #933;
}



CSS to change hover colour of the time of the post:

BODY DIV#brd-wrap DIV.brd-page DIV#brd-main DIV.main-content DIV.main-item UL.item-info LI.info-lastpost STRONG A:hover {
    color: #933;
}


CSS to change the fixed colour of the "private messages"

BODY DIV#brd-wrap DIV.brd-page DIV#brd-navlinks UL LI#nav_pun_pm A {
    color: #FFF;
}


In addition, the css did not work also at the level of a post, so the below buttons were not modifiable:
a) hover over the name of the user b) time of the post c) email button d) pm button e) report button and f) quote button


Have a look at yourself: http://www.iamexpat.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?id=208

The css did not work properly in order to customise those so if you have any tip, I would be grateful!

Thanks again!!

Re: SpinkBB 1.3 !

I like the old version better. The new one is too complex for me. I like the idea that fonts and font size can be changed
