[Suggestion] Themes demo board

[gfpk2]

Thanks to andrea for the great job at the top, but, themes are daily more and they could be better organized in a demo portal/forum site like hxxp:styles.phpbb2.de [nonactive] hxxp:plusstyles.phpbb2.de [nonactive] or hxxp:www.phpbb.com/styles/demo.php [nonactive]

Other one: send the themes to hxxp:www.stylesdb.de/ [nonactive]

Thanks to SMF all!

I agree, it would be much easier just to have a host for all the themes and a simple side menu with links to each one so u can see them all in action, because scrolling through lists and lists of posts, or going to the theme topic and going to each post link is annoying, but if it cant be done oh well, you guys do a good job on themes, Im trying to see if I can make my own but some of the programming is difficult to me.

Also, if this demo board is made it should have all the other images for demo too, like icons, mod demos, etc...

Alot of popular forum software companies use demo boards it attracts more members

That sounds like a sound suggestion to me -- and an easy place to preview several themes from different talented authors will be a welcome addition to the community.

Oldiesmann already made one I believe.

http://smf.oldiesmann.us - 27 themes and counting

See http://smf.oldiesmann.us/index.php?topic=32.msg74#msg74 for a complete list of themes available. I will add more of Bloc's themes once he updates them for 1.0.1 and will also be adding Andrea's Aquamania themes and Mystica's Loon themes soon...

the suggestion sounds really good.

is it possible to do this on this board?

[xenovanis]

I think that in the future the Graphics section on the frontpage may be used for this.

If you mean http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php, no I am completely opposed to this.

With what motivation, if I may ask?

[[Unknown]]

Using third party software on this installation is one thing.  Demoing a large amount of third party software on here is quite another.  Such an act could easily lead to a compromise in this forum's security....

Okay, clear enough.

[Oldiesmann]

I now have almost every single theme available for SMF on my test board - http://smf.oldiesmann.us - 65 Themes for your enjoyment (I added all the Aquamania and Loon themes today).

Great job Oldiesmann!

PD: I miss some themes like Juno or Mercury ( from Bloc ), perhaps somebody could list all the free themes avaliables.

[Oldiesmann]

Juno and Mercury are the only two themes I don't have on there (besides Babylonking's Dark Glaze Theme), and that's only because Bloc hasn't updated them for 1.0 / 1.0.1 yet. Other than that, every free theme available should be on there...
