I really like this theme.  I made a slight color change in the header to match my site a little more. 

However, I am wondering if it it possible to place a image "or text" in the header being default red or blue. 

Here are a couple links if you need to see what I am talking about..

Links might change do to us converting from 1 game to another.  However if they do not work just go to

where did you change the colours?
Title: Re: Dark4
Post by: Azphat12 on September 20, 2008, 01:51:02 PM
I opened up the appropriate gifs in Photoshop.

Copied the image size to a new image with the 1st layer being blue (gradient with black)
Zoomed in on the "gray bar" of the original and erased the red.
Copied the left over "grey bar" to the new image in a new layer
Saved the psd file, then saved it as the same name as the original file.
Uploaded to site, and refreshed screen.

There where about 10 files to do this.  The main header had a few, the 4 corners, the search box, and the hover over on the nav bar had 2 images.

Might not be the best way to do it, but I am not a Photoshop guru either so it was how I managed to get it done.  I did not see a color change option in the settings.

P.S.  If you plan on doing this....a trick I found out after the fact was when you make 1 side image, lets say the left side, just flip it 90 or 180 degrees to make it look like the right side or even the bottom.

I am having an issue with getting my logo to show up.  I have uploaded it to the image folder and it just isn't working for some reason.
Title: Re: Dark4
Post by: Azphat12 on September 21, 2008, 04:30:23 AM
Yea, let me get the gifs and zip them up. 

Im in the same boat mrstime.  I really like the theme....just I am not overly code savvy so cannot fix this myself without some kind of direction.

Edit:
I believe these are them.  If not I can find any missing.

http://www.darkaftermath.org/Dark4_Blue_Header.zip

You do not have to rename any of them.  Just backup your red ones (same file names as these) then upload these and overwrite.  Then refresh your brower, possibly might have to reset cache/cookies in your brower.  I did not have too, but just incase.

Oh and btw.  I tried going to the website linked.  Its in Turkish.  I tried doing a translation and registering.  Finally got it to work.  Then caught a english link, however that seemed to be about religion.  So not sure what to do....

Sorry it doesnt matter now. If you use the package parser and follow the instructions on which code to change it works fine. Still wanting to know about the Logo though. Is it possible to get it in the blue bar

I am having an issue with the "new" tag not showing up in the recent topics list, instead it shows the dreaded red X.  This happens only in IE though.

Suggestions?

On this theme, the drop down menus have black text and black background until you scroll over.  Where is this on the style sheet so I can change it to a white background.  It's annoying to have to slowly scroll over every item just to see what it is.

Thanks

I was going to just PM you my question, but this note came up that I need to ask in here.  I figured out how to change the colors on the drop down menus, but now I would like to change the color of the tags at the top.  I have some mods installed, but you can't see the links on the index because they are coming up dark gray rather then white.  How do I change this?
