i want to buy this skin but i want it with width 100% (full screen) to show not half and on center.


Contact me if u can do it with width 100%



There is a width adjuster where you can type in any pixel or % value, and you don't even have to open the HTML/CSS. It's under System > System Settings.

%7Boption%7D

That being said, it seems a bit odd to go over 90% since the side banners have the potential to look very nice, especially since you can customize them (this does require opening the HTML and CSS). I personally swapped out the 4 custom backgrounds in there with 1920*1080 backgrounds I liked more, and change them throughout the day based on what I feel like looking at. You would lose this option with width at 100%:

%7Boption%7D





While I'm here, I'd like to add that last night I ran a large sample (about 100 site speed tests) on all the major 3.4.4 skins, and this one came in second place (to Pulse), which means that this skin isn't slowed down by the fact that it requires a hook to function. Also, that it consistently ranked faster than the default blue IP.Board skin, even with a giant custom background being implemented.

I noticed you have build 10 on your site. Will that be released here soon (as well as the new build for the Light version)?



nothing new till now in the next update for dark skin (there is some ideas but not implemented yet)
in the light skin there will be the extra the ip.content blocks like the dark skin
%7Boption%7D

I do not see any reason to post it now since there are no bugs reports , so I am focusing in creating more extra stuffs for both dark and light version
anyway if you want css file for ip.contents free blocks for the light version I can send it now since it is ready

Contact me if u can do it with widht 100%



as Eric Allione said : there is build-in width setting to do this ,
you can use % for width , but you should think also about adding big size images in the slider to fit any big screen .

thanks for your post ,
there is something I want to say about the hook :
1- hook used only to create system settings for board layout and slider and skin futures , no sql queries , just to add settings to your board , so it will not effect the speed of the site
2- why hook not a setting file ? : setting created by a hook can be deleted easily if you want and also hook can check if there is an update , but settings xml files do not have these things and you need to delete the settings manually if you do not need them anymore , I just try to make customizing skin simple and powerful .
Best regards

Hi,

Just installed this and now messing around with it. I can't get it to change the upload logo though (Easy Logo Changer). I've uploaded a couple of times, the url is also correct, and it displays on other skins, so that rules out an issue with IPB. It's almost as if it's cached (there is only text there at the moment). Any idea why I can't add a logo? There are no errors being thrown up in the ACP.

Hi


Is there a way to disable sub header such as Ask Questions. Or at least get rid of the Ask an expert part as it is no good on my forum.



Cheers




hello ,
1) How do I remove the banner with the "Ask an Expert" banner at the top?
this is in the template called sub header , if you want to remove it just delete this template contents

Can we add more sliders (now is 4 with skin) and how if is it possible?



regards



bosss



yes , you can add more sliders manually , it is explained in the slider documents in the package .
recently I asked a developer to create a method to add unlimited sliders from admin panel , so hopefully in the next updates adding more sliders will be easier

Hi


If using slider, is there a recommend image size? I know you have one showing with words 1000 x 344 but is that the size best used with a board width of 75% ?



hello ,
generally slider resize itself to fit screen width .
for recommended image size :
according to Screen Resolutions statistics
http://www.w3counter...globalstats.php
Screen Resolutions
1 1366x768 18.28%
2 1024x768 14.21%
3 1280x800 11.33%
4 1280x1024 7.68%

-so if the resolution is 1366 px , mean "75% of 1366" is almost 1024px , so 1000px work perfect on this resolution because we use zoom-out option in images
-if the resolution is 1024 px , the min-width of board is 980px so also 1000px work great
-for ipad and tablets also 1000px work great: there is indeed detect method in the skin for tablets
for 1280px resolution , 75% of 1280 is 960 px , and since we have the min-width is 980px so also 1000px work great

so for 75% I think 1000px suitable
Best regards

Maybe I'm missing something but this skin is not responding as a responsive skin usually does?



you can consider it as semi-responsive theme : there is detect method for tablets you can see it in custom_css template , slider completely responsive , content block also fit in all devices , the rest parts will be done hopefully soon
