{SUG} Uploading Own Skins.


Guest

Recommended Posts

This is a suggestion that will make us upload our own skins.

Why?

Some people like to upload something they like to see every time they enter YCM.

 

Problem?: Yes there maybe a problem but I would be happy to answer each of your questions.

 

1st prob.

 

Could we make a skin that allows us to make our avatars 150x150?

 

Answer: Yes and No. It will depend on the YCM system or web site. It may not allow you.

 

Question 2

 

Can we upload any skin?

 

Answer: No first it must be checked for Viruses, P*** stuff, and leakage.

 

We cannot trust anyone in uploading any skin. You must PM me or a mod to check what you have done before hosting it. And no we won't upload it but the mods and the admin will.

 

Question 3.

 

How can we make our own skins?

 

Well you need Microsoft Front Page or Macromedia Dreamweaver.

Microsoft Front Page Will come free with the office set but Dreamweaver is an adobe product so you'll have to buy it.

Wait quite good? Ah I've tried it and it's not so hard because I'm working on a complete thread on how to make your own skin. And plain is not my favorite color to be honest so I wouldn't say quite good but thank you for your concern.

In case you didn't get me right, I was talking about the skins that are bright blue and blue, with different icons, not the usual default skin which you see when you haven't fiddled with User CP.

 

Anyway, if you're already making some, then good luck ^_^

Thanks, and blue and bright blue? o.0 I checked them but the only thing I can see is blue and white. And my BB on top.

 

But I'll re-check it.

Oh, actually I meant that one of the skins has bright blue and white colors with flashy icons and the other is blue and white with normal forum icons and three callouts besite the myBB logo. I use the second one now, it looks nice, unlike the first one which is kind of eye-hurting ^_^

Well I think a mod can upload it too but we must check first for you know Viruses and what I wrote. I had this problem before with someone in a Tutorial forum who was willing to destroy the forum but we checked it and denied it.

I won't waste a post on YOU but maybe on other members who care. And this is just a pointless spam post so please edit it and write something that may help. And you don't even know what a skin is? it changes of YCM looks. Yes we need better looks for YCM and if you don't care thats your own brain I'm not gonna write a whole thread later just for you.

actually a good thing would be for YCMaker to move over to vbulletin, it's not that expensive and they have tons of cheap skins that he can change the skin once every 15 months or so and it will keep us happy. thing is even though this is a custom skin and a really cool one it just doesn't look good after using it for 2 STRAIGHT YEARS. we need a change.

Thats what I was thinking for a long time. But it's actually easy if your using Adobe Dreamweaver. I make skins great in them but it's the difficult part is when uploading. Many leechers enter but it will only appear if your using a computer with guest on. Other than that I don't think anything will happen. Using front page is hard. But if you really want use HTML and CSS. They are hard but Eh I read a lot and passed this section. I'm working on a big thread but I need to write what they need to do. It's actually hard explaining on writing but better in videos but it will take me a lot.

i'm willing to help you since we both know what were talking about and also Mare knows a lot about this and if YCMaker is willing to pay money then i know a friend of mine, talented and can get the work done and he isn't expensive =)

 

plus were good friends so he can actually lower the price if i talk to him =p

 

thing is we can't do a sheet if YCMaker doesn't agree or support it...

We don't need to pay though. I visited a members IPBfree and he uploaded naruto and other skins. He didn't have to pay. But one of the mods uploaded it so we don't need to pay for it. We just need a mod or a GFX mod to apply it to the current skins. It will be very easy for us but not those who are new to HTML codes, CSS, etc.

 

But we need an example can you make a quick Skin and show it to me or a mod? o.0

I don't think anyone apart from YCMaker can actually touch that type of thing, but you bring up an interesting idea, what if we have some GFXers/Skinners who could maintain the skins and add new ones to the skins, could be an interesting idea to put forward to YCMaker and maybe even get some attention.

I really didn't know that Mods can't touch these type of things. But as I saw I thought that the S Mod changed it so it may have been the Admin. but YCMaker or a mod must check it first. I have been threw this problem 5 times and I wouldn't like to see it happening again. I was moding a forum the other day when suddenly I saw someone with Virus leakage coming from his thread to another forum. It it was meant. He meant to do it so as far as I know the Skin must be double or even triple checked.

It's YCMakers choice now to approve this "Skin" Situation, but if he rejects it then we can't add anything we want. But I'm not sure if we can make 150x150 because most sites make it really hard.
