Gods must be crazy!, that was the worst theme that I have ever seen

What a jealous message. You all theme aouthors hate each other huh?
I guess that theme needs to be fixed bc mozilla or some other explorers give problems, but it is certain that this theme is the word of the creativity.

The way I see it is, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.   It's like the saying.  "A face only a mother could love".  In this case "A theme only the creator could love" .

[Dannii]

Hmm, no, there is some objectivity in theme and visual design. Someone may prefer red more than green, but there are some colour combinations and contrasts that should not be made.

I was going to try to say the same even if the words weren't going to be the same ones, anyway great explanation

Hi, i have a question...

i don't like the use of tables in v. 1.x ....

will version 2.0 use a tableless-markup like the new phpbb3 does?

because if i create a new theme, i want to be able to use it in v2 without many problems, and converting a table-design to a table-less standard will be much work...

so.. is there anything planned on improving the themes on v2? if yes, i'd go for a table-less design right now (and try my luck in the contest), if not.. well.. i won't

greetings

[Dannii]

Yep that's the plan to have a table-less layout for the default theme.

[my evil twin]

oh great, thanks a lot

i think i'll give it a shot when i have some free time from the agency

Another question about the icons...

is it possible to use freeware (GPL) icons when crediting them?

or do i have to paint them myself... well actually i'm not an icon designer :O
i guess they'd look pretty... poor

greets

[Dannii]

Yes you can, though check with the icons' authors to see if they'd like you to GPL the whole of your theme.

[my evil twin]

i have no problem with GPLing my theme

thanks

[Maury]

When you say completely original, does that mean it cannot have any elements of the current SMF Default theme?

(I'm not good at making the little icons and such for help and calendar / forum stats)
