My suggestion would be to have things like this be linked to from the punbb.org page, or else how do users find it.

Re: PunBB Style previewer

I agree. We'll wait for 1.2 though. It's all different now :)

Re: PunBB Style previewer

I'm planning of making some kind of style editor for PunBB++. A very easy to use.

suggestion for this one would be to add a color pallette for each of the sections of the css to select the color you want and have a "save as" feature to out put the .css file for you. or maybe a stand alone app maybe? i know this would jump start my want to make my own css.

That makes two of us then. I thought of using the same system to generate stylesheets as PunBB uses to generate web pages. Let users fill in a form with the values they want, preview it and then a stylesheet would be generated for download from a template. Maybe I should leave it to you. I suck at php. BTW. Did you email me. My server had some problems with it's anti-spam system and I lost a load of emails. All I have is a list of senders.

As for that toy of mine. I forgot all about that. It was never finished and I'm surprised its still around. I guess I better leave it where it is. It doesn't require php or mysql. It's just  static html, css and javacript. It will work on your local computer so feel free to grab all the files. The way it works is there are a whole bunch of stylesheets where one style is altered in each. The buttons just operate a stylesheet switching script. This is the same system that some sites use to let users change text sizes or background colours or sometimes to generate printer friendly versions of pages. If you download it and stick you own stylesheet in the right directory it will act as a preview system. On the other hand , you could just use friend Hampe's excellent previewer and save yourselves the bother.

Re: PunBB Style previewer

Yes, I did sent you a message ;)

Maybe I'll resend it later today.
