This theme would look nice with 'tiny portal', ever considered making a TP version too?
Anyways, it's given me an idea for a new look on one of my forums. Would you mind if I used this theme as a basic template to build my own?

I already did TP this theme http://www.tinyportal.net/smf/index.php?topic=6782.0, just switch the TP files in the 0.95 version with the TP files from the default theme folder in the 0.96 install folder and it should work with 0.96.

You are welcome to use the shell of this theme to create your own, just so long as you put a credit in there to the original.

Oh and to anybody waiting for an RC3 version, the RC2 version should work with RC3.  I'm not really working with SMF themes any more though, although I do stilll do a little bit occasionally Crip has agreed to take over with most of my themes.

Thanks... Will do. :-)

Just one point though: I noticed the pm button is missing, and doesn't appear to be in the english directory. I got around this problem by creating my own (i needed to create one for the SMF gallery, and a few other links of my own) , and manually entered the code into index.template.php by emulating what was already there.

All i need to do now is find a way of making the message tables narrower. As mine is predominantly a creative writers and role play site; having lines of text all the way across the screen is harder to read. What I would like to do is give a 'paperback' feel to the posted messages. Narrower tables should do that.
Now i just have to find the right bits of code. Presumably its in the style sheet, index,teplate or post.template?

Installing some mods on the theme is a bit cumbersome though. Last night I had to manually copy/paste new code changes from the modification.xml script into the appropriate files. (This was for an advanced post template and colour bar) Not a serious issue though, but it may have worked better if I hadn't drank that bottle of JD before modifying source codes. ... lol

Nice looking theme though, it's calming to the eye.

You have to manually install mods on any custom theme, the only ones that mods usually install via package manager into are default, babylon and classic.  I'm not surprised that you found it difficult to do, it was a difficult theme to code.  My advice for anybody trying this though is to use the steps for Babylon for the buttons areas and the instructions for Default (NDT/Core) for the rest as this theme is a bit of a hybrid.  As to the missing button, I never found it a big issue as you can access your PMs via the section at the top when logged in.
