Doesnt look that bad, just tedious. Lots of #fffff, which can be replaced with something that doesnt offend knighty too bad. :lol:

Still more of a pain than I thought it would be when I opened the tek.css file. Way way too many options.

Dumb suggestion, wouldnt it be nice to list the fonts in the order of "sans, verdana, ariel..." as that lets you use your web browsers default set?

the idea is you list fonts in the order of least common to most, so the scheme falls back on another font if it cant find the one you want it to use, i.e:

font-family: Maximum Otter, Impact Special Ltd Edition, Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;

New scheme will go up once Ive finished din dins.

each skin has its own folder on the server. To add the skin just update the list in admin config area

so i take it there are no backups of the "old" forum.
or at least ones that are compatable with this new program.

Take some time and search these forums and have a read. Its not worth rehashing the answer yet one more time.
