| New Theme: Blue (Light); Help me test it! | |

Does anyone know where I can find my sanity?

I have introduced a new theme to the selector: Blue (Light) Unlike the previous versions, I have made some drastic changes to address the errors we had last time. There are no .png files (minus what is hosted directly through zeta - and I hope to sub-host those soon)! All images are now either .gif or .jpg, so they should work with every version of Internet Explorer! Please use this skin and test it for me. Then post your results in this thread. I intend on using this as a template for all new skins I create, so please be critical! Any issues, no matter how small! I would like to have this completely up and running by the end of the weekend if possible! IMPORTANT: Be sure to tell me what Browser you are using when posting! As for the google ads hanging up the board load, I can't fix that...sorry. That's out of my hands. |

I'm using Internet Explorere Jennifer. The actual temlate looks fine to me. I just don't much for the color, a bit bright on for my liking. The setup though looks really nice imho. Thanks for all 'the behind the scenes' work you do here on the Garage. It's much appreciated. Now to go back to the autumn theme before I go cross eyed or crazy. PS: How about a BWF one like we had on the old invision board? That was my fav of the bunch before the switch. Thanks. Sir Crafty |

I hope to have many more additional themes, but I until I know all the *bugs* are worked out I don't want to spend time creating them just to have them fail...I hope that makes since? I do have plans for a BWF theme that will look very similar to the old version! If this blue theme tests okay, I can have a black theme up probably before the end of the weekend. |

I understand the method to your madness Jen! I didn't have any problem with it when I used it. So hopefully it works for all and will be the correct setup for future themes/skins. |

Works wonderfully in IE7, but it seems ever so slightly slower in Google Chrome. That's odd, Chrome is usually faster than IE7. |

Works good here on IE. A bit bright for my taste though. Back to default. I also miss the black with flames version. |

I find, probably due to my age that I need strong contrasting colors so that I can more easily read the words, i.e., black on white seems to be best (?) The blue print does not contast enough with the light blue background. Right now the Autumn screen is my best choice. |

I don't need to know if you like the blue (as it is just a template and other colors will be offered). I just need to know if the theme actually works on your browser. Please let me know which browser you are using and whether or not the theme works correct (ie loads fast, no crashing, no errors etc). Thanks everyone! |

New casting?? Quick! Take it apart!
|
It's working fine on my IE indows XP. I think the blue is too light and the margins got narrower, making things look smaller. Going back to the default---I like that one. But when is the yellow tow truck coming back???  Thanks for your work. I owe you a ________ (fill in the blank). |

You people need to try out Google Chrome, it's awesome I still use IE7 most of the time, but Chrome is a lot faster. |

I can bring back the yellow tow truck just as soon as I know there are no more errors with the Themes! Right now, I know that the spacing is off on the Winter Theme (yes that terrible black space is back and so is the one-liner-titles). I have to fix that, but if all goes well...then I can convert the Classic Skin to a Zeta Theme! And: Vacation (I will need one after this is all done) |

Is this font size better? Or is it too big now? |

IE 6.0 all right I'm a little behind the times but 7.0 locks me up. Light blue looks better today than the other day I had a lot of red Xs on the main page. |
 Alright, so I open my cars up and take the tags off Beanie Babies then give the beanies to my daughters to play with.  After all, they are only toys

All the images are being hosted with Comcast (due to some of our members not being able to view Photobucket images at work). Comcast is doing another round of upgrades and that has caused moments of *blackouts* with the graphics. When you get the red x's, just refresh the page until it all comes back on. I am hoping Comcast settles down soon! It's been a bit frustrating! |
