If you wanted to donate a skin to public use... |

...How would you do that?
I just made this and thought someone else might like to use it (probably with a different banner though). It might need a couple other little tweaks as well.

That's an awesome skin! I can't answer your question, I'll let the staff do that. But I couldn't look without giving a big compliment!

I really don't have any critique. I think the colours are well-balanced and it's easy to read with clean lines. I wonder though whether it's
intentional that there aren't any graphics for the "mark forum read" and "bookmarks" and "forum jump" and such?

Yeah, I didn't want to overload it with too much imagery since some folks are still on dialup. I tried to add them where it felt tasteful to do so (like
the RSS and Email, where I used some public Yuku icons from other themes).
Also the font I'm using has to be somewhat large to be readable, which is the real downfall of it :P I think it was a free font I picked up off of a comic book lettering site a year or so back. |

I think the buttons are awesome.
You know, most skins that are made for general use (and for paid-for use) have a blank banner. Perhaps you could offer that too, so that folks could make their own board name on it and still have a banner that fit? |

Looks good! I like the "tooney" aspect
! I would make the other buttons in the font to match as cedar said too. They would just be tiny gif images
so they should not bother the dialuppers.

cedar: Just finished one! If anyone would need help putting their name on the banner it wouldn't really be any trouble to just add it from my end and send it to them. Arizona: Okay, try now! ^^ Got Mark All As Read, Mark Forum Read, and Bookmarks. I added a couple other small images as well, let's see... Add event and Repeated Event buttons for the calendar. I have a quick question: The days are all in yellow, so it's hard to see them on the light
background. How could I give them a dark red background? I can't seem to find the place to put that...
Switched to Yuku topic layout and added an Interact button. I sort of wish that report topic was a seperate link, like beside the edit link :P And here's the blank, updated colors banner. |

Like so:
.calendar-sidebar th {background: black;} except make the 'black' the color you like .

Waugh! I found another flaw...My featured topics bar.
http://afterearth.yuku.com/ It shows the headings as yellow, when I go to change the background it changes the background color for the actual topic title as well so that it's all red. If I try and change the font the Kudos and Last Reply boxes on all the subject headings will change color. So I guess my question here is...how do I define a CSS class that has a space in it? Just writing it like it was shown wouldn't change anything and taking off the last bit makes all my forum change. |

going back to the original post real quick - if you want to put it up for public use, I recommend submitting it to ezdesign, which is a collection of free-to-use ezboard themes and yuku skins. create an account, then
click "submit" in the top black bar. you'll need to zip everything up into a zip file (images, a .txt file with any CSS in the skin) and make a
thumbnail that is 150x100, then you are good to go
nice job by the way! |

For the headers in the Featured box add this:
.featured-box th {color: #000;} I am not sure I understand the rest of your question though. |
