Great Theme, so easy on the eyes and just overall great. 

I really like this Blues theme, but have a question about the *no new and new post buttons* and am not sure where to post it. Can these buttons be replaced and if so where, css template or index template?     

[Tsmithf33]

Is it possible to change the logo from blues to something else??

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Ofcourse
Just change your logo.gif from images folder.

When you get this errror?
What have you done, and get this error?
Can you give me the details?

You don't need to make java or somethingelse for work..

[jayc7176]

i get this error Right After i Enable the theme.. Like whenever i go to Set it as the default theme for forum ...and overall forum default .. --The Default SMF theme SHows up but with this Error on top ... .. Nothing changes .. Maybe anything else Wrog?

i Have attatched a screenshot of whats happening.. Mayb this will help out understand whats going on ..


Many Many Thanks for the Help !

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

But this is not about Blues Theme.
I think there is a mod in your forum which coincide with Blues Theme 
However, when you set it as the default theme for your forum, it's not blues theme. It hasn't change. It's still default theme 

[jayc7176]

i see... --- you know when i  choose Set Blues theme as default for all users and set blues for forum default it goes to this   it never goes to blues , i will see .. try to remove the mods i have .. see if it works .. Thanks for the help . . i hope its not TP messing with it

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Are you using tiny portal?
Maybe this can be your problem.
This theme is not compatibility with TP 
I don't know how to make this theme to change TP version.
Contact with Bloc maybe he can help you.

[jayc7176]

Hoochie Coochie   Thanks ! mate .. i uninstalled it & installed it back up !!! It Working! Just Fine .. Awsom Theme..!!! LuBB it! Its Working with TP it doesn't seem to change it reverts to the other but no worries!

[Deaks]

Does it matter eren is back messages still must be in english and eren will say same stuff as gary and I regarding themes, we all enforce the guidelines, eren is not exempt to this.

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

I know it still must be in english.. That's not my point..
and I don't care what you or he or she doin up there..
I just glad to see a Turkish in customize team.. and that's enaugh to turning back

[dbmonkey]

I looked through all the templates and found that blues looked the most professional for the site I was using hxxp:www.planetjersey.co.uk [nonactive]

having never used the software or template before I download both to a new site on a Friday night, and had the site up working and open by Sunday morning. We have had tweeks along the way, but overall no major issues.

A nice to have, not just in the template but in the sms software on the next update perhaps is an area within the code that will allow you to link to an advert or google analytics etc without the need to html, similar to the news function and probably placed just above it (could also use just one advert jpg as your forum logo), but me, I have no experience in internet creation thingies, just SQL and other database based products, but I wish I also had the excellent abilities of hoochie coochie man.

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Thanks for the comment..
Let me give you a tip.. just wait the "Blues Mega Color" if you want..
It's not finished yet. I'm working on it.


In Blues theme, just tell me which place do you want to stored the advert..

Before the news?

[dbmonkey]

Really look forward to seeing your new Blues Mega Color. I will keep my eyes peeled for its release.

I would love to store adverts just above the news.

Thanks.     

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Finished..!!
Waiting for approval..
Here is the demo..

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Btw, i tried editing the logo.gif, but sometimes the picture is above, how can I lower the picture a little bit, where should I edit it?

Style.css

Code Select Expand

#logo {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    display: block;
    width: 400px;
    height: 125px;
    background: url('images/logo.gif') no-repeat;
    cursor: pointer
}

Use..     top: 0;

And I want my logo.gif to be clickable, tnx...

It's already clickable..

If you want other language's buttons..
Just write here that what is "Admin - Calendar - Help - Home - Login - Logout - Members - My Messages - Profile - Register - Search" means in your language..

[karenwalkersnipple]

I really love this theme.  I am having a problem getting the nav bar icons to show tho.  I know there probably is a simple fix for this but I just haven't found it.  Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a link to my forum.  http://nanavisitoronline.com/forum/ [nofollow]  None of the icons are showing.

You are using utf-8 language strings.
So must change your "english" folder name to "english-utf8"

[karenwalkersnipple]

Thank you Hoochie for taking the time to answer my question.  That worked like a charm!!

[nzmacro]

I just love this theme. Actually got it from site awhile ago. Simply the best IMO.

Just a question: "Beginning on line 457", is it possible to center align the buttons ?. I would just like to have the buttons in the center, instead of on the left. Not a major issue if its too complicated, just interested.

All the best HCM, I have a few of your templates . Fantastic work.

Danny.

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

Thanks for the comment.

Well, there is a way actually, but not suggest.

You can use "ex: margin-left: 50px"

[micky13]

i've instaleld this theme, pretty darn cool. 1 thing, i want to change the logo.gif to say "micky13" or "micky13.com". I tried to use a simple edit with MSPaint, but when i re-uploaed it the background was black, not matching the other colors. Do i need to use another image editor, or what's the best way to edit it?

thanks.

[eclipsenow]

I like the spacing in this theme, and the icons at the top. But I tell you, I'd love to see something in this "white grunge" theme here.
http://mightychurch.com/forums/

It's spacious, it's kind of "clean" but it has just enough "grunge" or "stickytape effect" around the edges to make it not too boring.

A theme that had really easy header replacement but was mostly clean white space like the one above, now that would rock. (Note: above forum is Expression Engine not SMF, but I'm talking about the visuals here, not the engine).

if necessary, here's the Photoshop sticky tape tutorial
