This theme makes use of Flash for the header, navigation, and footer. if it annoys you, you can disable sound effects in

Looking forward to seeing this theme :)
thanks. :)
looked at it in ie. lots of errors. dont view it in ie yet..
Who uses IE? :)
When I design themes I won't care how good it looks in IE. :P j/k
Oh btw, in response to your signature about Bloc's avatar.

Looks great! A bit dark though, but I like it! :D
Aaron.
thanks aaron. :)
errors in ie are fixed now.
Looks really nice! :)
Great theme yet again, Tipp. :)
thanks guys,
in the process of getting the file zipped. im still going to work on it though, after it;s released. a theme is never really finished.
Theres an error when a topic is new
The title first bit goes right,then #new#new
You could modify the welcome to say Welcome as it is the start of a sentence
can you take a screenshot of the error? i cant find it/dont know what you mean.
Ooops it was actually your demo doing the error
« <i>Last Edit: November 18, 2005, 08:40:40 PM by J J Williams » is an error
i see. it's doing that on my demo to. will fix the prob and update the theme asap.
One thing that'll stick out like a sore thumb
The login & register buttons don't disappear on login
that's becasue it's in flash. i dont think it's worth it to include two different flash movies in the theme. And i dont know how to integrate php and flash.
The only problem ive found with the latest download of the theme is that the message icons dont show up, everyone of them is a lil red X.
Hope to see this get sorted cause im loving this theme :D
could i have a link to your forum please?
looks nice tipp :)
Its dark wich you know I like however why do I get distinct impression this is mark 3 off another theme, :)

uhh..i dont know. it's derived from the babylon theme.. :-\
Tipp
When I loaded it up, I lost the ADMIN button. It was replaced by LOGIN even though though I was already logged in. Thank god I have the BACK button. :)
-Jazhawk
look at the footer. you'll find the admin link there. ;D
because of the flash navigation, it would make it really hard, if not impossible to integrate php if's with it. i could of course include a flash movie for each possibleilty, but that would be alot of flash movies, and alot of space taken up.
On the footer. Hmmmm. Very Interesting! ;D
-Jazhawk
WOW Tipp this theme looks great. Nice job.
thanks man.
this theme is perfect indeed :D
but perhaps that you could make colors of the fonts a little lighter..
but i like your style.. couldnt do it myself..
i can attatch a new css file for lighter fonts for you. will do that asap.
Very nice theme Tippmaster :)
thanks.
i decided not to redistribute the .fla file. if anyone needs me to put your forum name on it, i can do so.
also, this theme is in the process of being updated to work with tinyportal it works, but im still modding it so it looks good with the width and all.( i need permission from bloc to include the tinyportal templates with the theme)
Really Like the Theme, the only thing is all the images are smf defaults except the buttons but with downloads from here ive managed to make the site im admin of look pretty cool :D just one thing im not very keen on is the header thing with the login thing... maybe make 2 flash files one that you already have.. and when you login display another flash which is what you get when you logged in .. admin , logout etc ....
not a problem though i can still access the admin section, logout etc thro the mkportal :D
screen shots of the forum..


maybe in the next release. i couldnt do one for logout becasue of the session variable. I wont do admin and search etc though. way to many flash files.
example:
a flash menu if the user is logged in, an admin, search is off, calendar is on, and the cannot edit their profile
a flash menu if the user is logged in, an admin, search is on, calendar is off, and the cannot edit their profile
a flash menu if the user is logged in, not an admin, search is off, calendar is off, and the cannot edit their profile
yeah. you get it. it'd be like 30 flash menus. too much.
icons are coming. ;)
yah lmao wheyyyyy to many ... btw teh redux icons go well with the theme and the blue smilies in the " other graphics" does , thats what im currently using with your theme.. man that theme is sick :D 8)
glad you like it :).
i will include new icons when i have time to finish them.
ok thanks... i think i might get on to theme designing for Smf.... just need to learn howto :)
Tipp Could you do me the header thing i want Wicked-Messenger onit Thanks :)
do you want one with sound or without sound?
Sound if its any trouble just leave it without it thnx ;D
http://img382.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wickedheader7vp.swf
How do i download it :P when i left click save as it is .htm
Nevermind done it had to view the source info an tax the emebbed link then right click it in IE lol tyyy Tipp Great Stuff :D
Very good theme TIPP! Sorry I didn't respond at TWG. I've had no internet for two weeks! Finally got back online. Alot of catching up to do!
Very nice theme, Tippmaster. :) A bit dark, but I like the gradient/metallic "structure" everywhere.
thanks guys. :)
Wow. Looks awesome!
thanks!
i see it's on your 1.1 test board now. :)
that is roxorz your soxorz down to your bare boxorz.
Its good to see you have finally learned something- that my teaching hasnt been wasted.
i love this theme :) thanx man,keep up with the good job
thanks!
Sapphire for tinyportal is like really close to being done. Im also trying to updated so that you can use the newsfader without it looking horrorble.
one off the best i've seen here.. gonna try it..
i get this message in my error log
8: Undefined index: flash_mute..
but its a great job..
arg. i messed up on that option.
a quick fix would be to go to the admin panel, check the
Disable sound effects
checking this will disable sound effects from your flash header.
box, saving, then going back and unchecking it (and saving).
just simply great, theme like that just simply cant be put in to words by my 3 year english vocab bank -.-
one thing tho, think you can make the whole layout a bit wider? lol. or is just me not use to the thinness. but other then that. the theme is awsome. i also have a quick question on Xmas Snow for the forum, is there anyway to apply that to it?, and can i please have your flash doc. file or you u can simply add snow affects for the Panel. and do a Xmas Edtion of this already super nice Sapphire Theme. thanks
`Mesmer
you could easily change the width, but it would cause problems with the gradient used for the background of the forum.
I will attatch the .fla file asap (when i find it.)
Im glad you like it!
Hey tipp me again lol .. got people complaning about the sound.. if your not busy could u redo the logo without sound ? thx -ant-
Have you thought about creating a seperate flash file for each menu item? That way you wouldn't have to create a seperate flash menu for each of the possiblities.

true, but it would be very difficult to get the animation in sync with multiple files. Like impossible.

ok. il try to get it done today.
I actually just now noticed that the menu is animated with the logo. I was just thinking in terms of a regular (non-animated) menu.
hehe. yeah. That's the whole purpose of the "czzzzshhoooom" sound, it plays while the menu is sliding out. :)
The only purpose i could see in making a regular logo out of flash (non-animated) would be for sound effects on hover.
Could you make me a header with Core Forum on it?
please specify if you want sound or not. :)
another kick ass theme tip! good work!
Quote from: Tippmaster on December 08, 2005, 08:04:47 PM

If theres a way to just have sound when they go to the index that would be cool but if not forget about it I want sound.
here are the flash files for both of you.
enjoy. :)
it looks very nice.
thanks.
QuoteIf theres a way to just have sound when they go to the index that would be cool but if not forget about it I want sound.
Im afraid that just isnt possible. The page reloads and the flash plays. The only way it would be possible would be to make the entire theme out of flash.
Umm Mr.Tipp look what it does on my forum it goes from core forum to wiked messanger.....Core-forum.com (http://core-forum.com)
sorry, i made you banner by modifieing his with sound. Dreadfully sorry about that, will have the correct one up asap.
here is the fixed file. Hope there are no problems with it.
I noticed you are using a 1.0.5 version of smf, with Sapphire, which is a 1.1 exclusive theme. You will possibly get some errors in your error log, and some features may not work properly. Use at your own risk!
Hey just wanted to tell you if you can give me the images next to the peoples name Example:http://www.core-forum.com/index.php/topic,67.0.html
what do you mean?
well go to my forum core-forum.com click atopic and go into a thread there is a red X next to everyones name that looks weird.
works here. probabally your browser.
Well im using IE and it does not work there which is a very popular browser. Are you using o-pera or firefox?
opera.
the images are there.
http://www.core-forum.com/Themes/Saphirre/images/icons/profile_sm.gif
ie is just being a pest and not displaying them. Used to happen to me with avatars here.
well is there anyway to just take of the X image so no one knew it was suppose to be there in the first place. If so can you tell me the name fo the fiel so i can delete it from ftp?
It's probabally showing for everyone but you..because i tested it in opera, firefox, and ie. All three browsers act exactly the same when displaying an image. It's just ie being a pain. It will probabally stop doing that if you refresh and/or clear your cache.
Very very nice tippmaster...this is the exact color scheme and layout i've been looking for.
Excelent work my friend.. :)
Is there any way to ad my own logo? :)
own logo? where? Do you mean like a flash header with your forums name on it? Or a logo?
Well! as I am liking this flash logo more and more each time I look at it. I have a logo allready to plug into it, I made it the same size. I just dont want to mess the whole board up if I do it wrong. It isnt a flash logo, also would it be possible to remake the flash logo to say..."Bears Connection" with out the quotes as you did for a few other people here?. I am not that familar with flash, but I am quite good with graphics. :)
I hate to be a pain but I found a few problems I thought you would like to know about :)
IE6

that button there doesnt work at all.

and I have no idea how to get that icon to show up..
ill take a look and see what's wrong with the upshrink. Can i have a link to your board please?
Here ya go :)
http://webringamerica.com/nooniensingh (http://webringamerica.com/nooniensingh)
sorry if I am being a pain in the a...
not at all.
The upshrink works for me. im at school right now and im on IE. Those images arent showing for me. I promise ill check it out as soon as i get home, because right now there isnt much i can do.
I can tell you that the directory/images exist, but it isnt displaying them for some reason.
http://webringamerica.com/nooniensingh/Themes/saphire11/images/post/xx.gif
Ok...thanks for the quik reply. Also about the logo thing, i used a SWF conveter prog to generate a FLA for the flash logo. hehehe but I still have no idea how to change the text.
ill change it when i get home. No flash here. :(
ill make it asap. And look and see what's wrong with the missing images.
Thanks man :)
:( another bug.....

^The callendar^
it's not a bug in the theme. you need to read the red text in one of my previous posts.
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=57867.msg419550#msg419550
Ok no prob :)
do you want sound effects in your header?
Yes please....with and without if you could :)
both are attatched.
Thank you very much :)
no problem my friend. :)
one more thing! I just got access to the ftp, now do I just delete the header.swf and replace it with this one ?
rename bearsheader.swf to header.swf on your pc. Then, do that.
Got ya! :) OMG it looks great!!
glad you like it. :)
working on a flash-free version of this theme.
Aww man that would be great! Will it be conpatible with 1.0.5? Oh! and the upshrink problem, it works when I log out and click the button as a guest, but when I log back in, it doesnt work lol. Wild hey?
no, im not downgrading it to 1.0. The upshrink issue is probabally just another side effect of using an incompatable theme.
Hmmm guess im missing something here lol but isnt SMF 1.0.5 the latest version? ???
wow according to this I have the latest ???
that's because 1.0.5 is the last "stable" release. 1.1 RC1 is newer though.
So I would have to down grade then? for everything to work?
you mean upgrade? yes. for the sapphire theme to function correctly, you will need to upgrade your board to 1.1 RC1
Ok cool! hope the whole thing dont crash and burn lol
yo, tip. Can you make me a psd header instead of flash header. I guess that means we'll need some psd navigation as well..
I love the template, but I dont care much for flash. LEt me know what you can do! Thanks.

working on a flash-free version of this theme.
so yeah. im going to try to make it look as similar as possible. The footer will just be a normal image since not much animation is used.
Whats the time frame tip for this flash free version? I've always used your themes, and this one is prob the best so far.. ;D
i dunno. ill probably just include the files and give instuctions on what to do, instead of making a whole new theme dl.
I attatched the background to the flash. That's all i can do for now. The text was in "Aerial" in lower case, and the color was #FF9933.
added the flash free version. attatched to first post.
Yahoo!!!! You work quick
Tried it tip. The package is corrupt! :(
can you show me how exactly to expand the Theme's Width? is a bit thin and i cant seem to fix it my self. Ty

`Mesmer
it would take some workit's kind of complitcated...because the flash header is the same width as the theme. It has to have a set width, no body margins, or percents or anything, or some of it wont align right. And i cant make it too wide, because the lower screen res. would get a horizontal scrollbar.

wierd. ill re-zip it and try it out.

works great tip. I need some buttons now. Forum, Arcade, Chat, and Shop! Thanks man! ;D
sweet. thanks Tip.
no problem. if anyone needs more buttons, or a flash logo created, post here.
(dont pm me)
Hi there Tip, :)
It seems the logo you made for me doesnt have any sound, I tried both ..
sorry!
this one has sound.

OMG TIPP look what I did to it....
http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c35/nooniensingh/header.swf (http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c35/nooniensingh/header.swf)
Hope you dont mind me altering it....If you do Ill change it back :)
looks great! or course you can alter it.
Exciting theme, however - immediateley after choosing this theme, this error occurs:
"Unable to load the main_above sub template!"
Its just a blank white page with that message.
All I did was simply downloaded the saphire.tar.gz attatchment, installed it using the Admin "Upload & Install" feature. After installing it said, "Saphire theme has been successfully installed." But immediateley after switching to the theme the above error occurs. Just downloaed the package 5 mins ago.
Using SMF 1.1 RC1
At the very least, because the forum is now unavailable, I would like to reset the board back to the original theme, how would I do that?
i dont know what's wrong. use this url to automatically use the smf default.
http://yourforum.com/index.php?;theme=1
Hey TIPP maybe you can answer this..cause no one else seems to. is there a way to modify the saphire theme to get the GoogleSpider mod to work, I have tried every thing even crashed the whole board once lol. it shows up in options but thats it...
here is a look at the post i made in MODS:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=38003.msg421697#msg421697 (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=38003.msg421697#msg421697)
you need to edit the custom template. I did that to add users online today at otek671.com forum. Im not sure what the code it since I dont use that mod.
ill do some popular mods to it, try to make it look as natural as possible, and then post exactly what i did/where i made modifications. :)
Ok :)
Tipp, the problem is that inside the .tar.gz you've got a folder with the stuff in - you need the stuff in the .tar.gz but NOT in a folder just like the noflash zip. :)
is it like that? on my pc it extracts to zip -> files. not zip -> folder - > files. i just checked again. I checked the with flash one. (.tar.gz)

I believe so as SMF shows up a white background etc. - the stuff that usually happens if a theme is inside a folder inside the file.
On my boards the images for YIM and ICQ are not showing up. They show red x's under the users avatar. Any way to fix this?

I got it, it is actually a database issue. They are set to nothing but the forum still thinks that is is so it shows a red x. I need to figure out how to set it correctly without using phpmyadmin, it isn't available. :( That is what happens when you convert from Snitz.. It has been giving me a REAL headache >:( Great theme though, sorry for the confusion
Looks like you are having the same issue as me, I have this template setup on two diferent hosting services. My icq gif isnt showing on the service that I have smf 1.1Rc1 but it shows up on another hosting service running smf 1.0.5. Note to TIPP: that xx.gif is showing up now when I changed hosting services but I cant seem to apply any mods..
no, it's a different issue.
QuoteI got it, it is actually a database issue.
he removed the link he had to the forum. but his images were trying to link to actions.
She... ;D And yea, I removed the link because I got it fixed now. Mine was more due to the conversion between Snitz and SMF I did. Not a template issue. I think it will take a while before all the little database issues are ironed out on mine. If you want to see the link is

Hey Tipp! Amazing theme!
I have a request. I have my forum integrated in joomla, so the header swf links don't work for me, so i was wondering if you could get me one without em. or maybe add the right url? "index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26"
So cool!

mattitude is right. you'll have to use the no flash version. i dont think a few of those characters can be used in urls for actionscript. Maybe if you would be willing to set up some sort of redirect, i could do it.

ok. i guess it cant hurt..
word of warning - all images in this theme, including the flash file, or only to be used on SMF with the Sapphire theme.
attatching it to first post.
I do not have access to a pc with flash at present, could you please do an swf saying 'IntrepidEntertainment'? Without quotes obviously - thanks.
Wow you did an amazing job Tippmaster, Good job! :)
Can i ask what font you used for the buttons? Since i have some mods, and when making buttons and using a different pixel font than the other buttons, it looks awkward lol. Thanks again, much appreciated.
Btw im wondering, is there a way to make it so the template displays a wider forum? Since in the theme its a bit narrow. EDIT: Nvm im stupid lol, figured out how to make wider.

Here is a great program to generate .FLA from the SWF header or footer :)
Macromedia Flash to alter the .FLA files
but dont be a dumb@$$ and change the "Theme by TIPPMASTER"
http://rapidshare.de/files/9992404/Imperator_FLA_1.6.9.8.rar
the .fla is attatched to the first post..
lol your like Houdini a second ago you were not online.
Hey! by the way, you mind me asking what program or programs you used to create this template?
for the theme? i used context. - http://context.cx. for the graphics i used the gimp, and ps 7.0 for text.
is it possible to make this theme wider? and if so, how do I do it? Would also like to make the header logo into a link.
Very nice theme! Looks awesome
Why do people still see the Login and Register button even after logged in?
because it's in flash.
So hows it going to look good then ?
what? if you dont like it, dont use it. and try not to be rude.
there is nothing i can do about the links staying there. The time it would take to integrate the php and flash would not be worth it. If you dont like the way it is, use the no flash version of the theme. As stated a few times in the topic.
Quote from: The Outsider on December 31, 2005, 01:31:48 PM

Just use the non-flash version -.-
Also tippmaster or anyone else, has anyone tried this theme with 1.1 RC2? Wondering, does it look alright in that version?
im not sure, but i think some work was done so that themes from RC1 were not totally destroyed. I will update this theme to RC2 though.
Alright thanks Tippmaster, i think ill wait for the RC2 version of this theme before updating forums or use that topic about editing themes for RC2.
That one is pretty cool, nice job.
looks great

Would you please be able to tell me how to remove the indent on hover of board desciptions?
you can change that in style.css. look for the border attributes on windowbg3, make them the same as windowbg and windowbg2.
I am using this theme however it doesnt make the sounds that your live demo does. Do you know what is wrong?
is admin -> current theme's settings -> Disable sound effects
checked?
can you make this availible for RC2?
Quote from: TippmasterI will update this theme to RC2 though.
In the topic icons area which show 25 replies, ones you have replied to etc. how come it's just a black bg?
i dont see the option to enable or disable sounds this all thats there.

^Maybe you got the non-flash version?
I dont maybe any one got the flash version ill upload it and see if it helps
Ok I did download the noflash one. But I dont how to upload the ones not in zip files.
how do I up the file. * saphire.tar.gz
the same exact way..
No the zip file gives me the option to save it in a compressed file the other one does not.
so you mean download, not upload.
are you telling me your computer is not letting you save a .tar.gz file..
it lets me save it yes but then say windows does not know how to handle this file when i atempt open it.
why are you trying to open it?
to use my ftp to upload it. like the zip files when i open them i open them in a compressed file then unzip and upload to my ftp. I cant do it with tae.gz file.
Im just dumb and dont know what Im doing.
none of that is nessesary..all you have to do is go to admincp -> themes
and upload it. smf extracts it on it's own.

He attached the .fla file to his first post, which is a flash source file. You'll need a program like Flash MX to open it though.
how does one go about downloading this theme? I went to the demo site but doesnt appear there is a link to be found.
attatched to the first post.
Hi ya Tipp
one question what program did you use for the flash because unless I have a diferent version of Gimp creating flash isnt a feature in Gimp ...
macromedia flash. Pretty sure that's the only way to make flash...i used gimp for the graphics. editplus to code it.
Does it work on 1.0.5?
no.
is possible have it for rc2 ???
Can ANYBODY please tell me what to edit to make some sort of image show for the topic key???

Quote from: TippmasterI will update this theme to RC2 though.
Any update on this???
wow that is really good....
This is a great theme! Adding Flash was brilliant! Will it be updated for RC2 and for 1.1 when it's released? Also - I'm not a templating guru - how do you make it variable width, so it can be used wrapped in Mambo (so it doesn't force the left and right menus out making the horizontal scroll bar appear)?
Very nice Theme !
Looks good with the Flash in it.
It's too dark for my forum, would be nice if it came in several colors as well.
Great Job !
Please do in spanish
can you covert this theme to work with smf 1.0.6
Can You Edit It For Me?
The Text Will Be
Burning Crusades
Wow. Awesome theme! Thanks! :)
But i just wish there was a light version to this..
If this was in a black color I would use it!
Could you contact me about getting it in that color;

i dont understand what you are talking about.

See that..
I want to see if you can put your own name of the site in the thing so replace the flash simple machine words with your site words
you can..
Quotethe fla is attatched to the first post..what more do you want?
what program do you open to edit the header with?
flash of course.
waiting RC2.. ::) anyone can update?
Im working on another theme atm...
And i have to update pitchblack.
It will all come eventually.
woah.. i am still waiting for rc2.. i must use saphirrre style... i lowe it!
Hmmm I dont seem to be getting an answer here, Id hate to post the same thing twice.
Unable to load the main_above sub template!
How can I fix this please?
i dont know what could cause that error. try replacing your index.template? that's where main_above is.
This happens after install, when I change the theme to saphire11. Ive tried deleting the whole board and reinstalling and still the same error.
--------------------------------------------EDIT--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
problem solved for the most part...What I did incase anyone else is interested is, I extracted the tar,gz in a folder and ziped it back up with winzip and called it saphire instead of saphire11...so what you end up with after you zip it up is saphire.zip then go into admin and upload it normally :)
on the no flash theme there is a default smf calendar button instead of a saphire calendar button. where can i get one at?
sorry..ill make it when im done with what im doing now..
Thax ;:)
Hi there Tipp, got a small problem with the header. it keeps looping in IE6 and you can't uncheck the loop option. Everything is fine untill you refresh the page, thats when it starts the loop.
Ohh my God this is the best theme I have seen so far! Very sleek and sexy theme! Wow how do I use the flash version do I just upload it normaly? I assume I need to do something.
I still cant get the flash to work after trying for a few hrs lol Is there some extra script I need or something?
The more I use this theme the more I like it! I just wish I could make it Wide so it takes up whole page.
plzz R3 updates :(
a lighter color theme for exact layout?
ok folks this theme is being updated for 1.1.3 :)
Please stand by
I have added the 1.1.3 verrsion to the first post
Thank you sloopz.
Hope you guys like it.
Thank you for this theme. I like your themes. I had your Neon theme on my forum for ages, and I just now changed it to this one. However, it'll probably go back to Neon.. because it's my absolute favorite. I wish I could create themes as well, but.. eh.. I'm a lost cause, I guess. Anyway, thank you SO much for such a lovely, stylish, cool theme! =]
