Blue Moonlight is a dark, modern theme. It was my second theme ever on Simple Machine's theme site.
Thanks to Gary for a name to the theme.
The theme works with SMF2.0.x only!

EDIT 08-2011: Corrected a few issues with the main_menu as well as removed the RC5 version!
EDIT October 2011: Checkboxes could not be determined if they were checked or not in Opera 11.51

30th November 2011
+ Added SMF 2.1 style dropdown menu
! Tweaked some of the graphics

The theme can be previewed here:

is there a problem with the header section of the theme?

I just made a custom logo head banner for the top section and it doesn't line up correctly
also is this theme compatible with all mods?  reason why i ask is because the Ad Management
mod does not install ads at top of the board above the smf logo

The theme doesn't use custom templates, besides the index.template.php which has only been edited with a theme note in the bottom.

I am having a problem with this theme and IE8 has anyone else reported any?

Only half the page loads sometimes. No problems with any other browser I am aware of.

Really nice theme.

Mega-sweet theme!  Made this one my forum default.   :)  One question though:

With mods applied, the admin section dropdowns don't have the black background all the way down.  The extra choices aren't legible.  Can you advise a fix?   :)

Can you show me a snapshot of this?

Sure!   8)  It does the same with the 'Configuration' tab as well.   ;)

Sorted in the RC3 version (just made a silent update).

I'm going to make this theme a multi color variation. The theme itself will not change how it looks, only the text colors.

Ideas for new colors are welcome.

It is nice and clean but it is to dark for my usage.
Title: Re: Blue Moonlight
Post by: Akyhne on September 25, 2010, 03:56:20 AM
If you use an old, cheap CRT monitor, then the chance is all dark themes looks to dark. I saw a few SMF forums out there using my theme, but with changed font. It makes quite a difference, that's why I'm now making it a multi-color theme so that people can choose.

You can see how the theme looks with white text here (http://blackdiam.net/forum/).

Hi Akyhne - I'm using your brill theme on my upgraded RC4 site and Portamx portal - http://www.alienexistence.com/

I've changed a few of the colours etc by hand :)

Couple of questions:

1) Is there a way of making it 100% width? If I put 100% in Theme settings, it still leaves a gap either side. (That's what it is set on currently)
2) I have the same problem with the menus as in above http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=351139.msg2466038#msg2466038

Many thanks

Ah, forgot all about the menu issue.

Nice colors, the theme will be a multi-color theme when made for SMF2. It's only for font-colors, though.

About the 100% width, I'll look at that and the other issue, but right now I'm hung up. If you don't hear from me in a week or two, just post here again.

Hi Akyhne - The menu issue seems to be effecting member profiles as well now with mods installed as there seems to be too many items before the menu system turns white.
cheers

Hmm, are you using the latest SMF RC4 with the Blue_Moonlight_SMF2.0_RC4_Theme.zip (244kB)?

I checked for that problem the other day and it wasn't there anymore.

Yes I have checked, it is RC4, the files on the server are indicating this as well:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<theme-info xmlns="http://www.simplemachines.org/xml/theme-info" xmlns:smf="http://www.simplemachines.org/">
<!-- For the id, always use something unique - put your name, a colon, and then the package name. -->
<id>Akyhne:BlueMoonlight</id>
<version>2.0 RC4</version>
<!-- Theme name, used purely for aesthetics. -->

Hmm that's odd, because it seems the code is right. Can you PM me a test account?!
Title: Re: Blue Moonlight
Post by: Akyhne on November 14, 2010, 02:19:21 PM
I found the issue now. Seems there's a class used in some cases in PM menus. Never noticed that:

Find:
.dropmenu li li.additional_items
{
background-color: #fff;
}


Replace with:
.dropmenu li li.additional_items
{
background-color: #0F0F0F;
}

;)

Hi Akyhne.

Great theme :) I have just downloaded RC4, did you ever make multi colour text option as I cant see any settings for it?

I would like to use a little more white text, especially in posts.

I would also like to put my logo where the text is at present across the top of the theme, can you help?

Thanks.

Ok thank you, I look forward to it :)

Could you help me in the meantime on how I can put my logo.jpg in place of the title text along the top of the theme?
