New Skin

[Havoc]

We've got a Sryth themed skin up and running for this forum. All credit to Jodelle for creating this skin. Comments and suggestions welcome.

For those who don't know:
In the lower left corner is the Quick Style Chooser. From there you can quickly switch between the available skins (currently there are just two: the default one and the new Sryth Style)

Well since I'm now past the required ten posts and since the new skin looks awesome I just bestowed some rep on Jodelle - excellent job.

EDIT: Does anyone know how (if possible) to add rep without viewing a post by the member you want to bestow it to - I tried to do it by viewing Jodelle's profile but couldn't figure out how so I went to a post and done it. Thanks in advance.

I think you have to add to the rep of the person on the post that you liked so additions could be limited (to stop abuse of the system) If I'm not mistaken, I think you are only allowed 10 per day or something like that.

It's seems to me that the rep system is geared toward the individual post more than the person even though the person gets the reward. With that, the Reward the GM idea won't work here unless he post's first. Then he would have to post 10 times for it to show up. If I read it right.

Did that make sense or am I just rambling?

I'm not sure if someone has to post 10 times for their reputation to show or not. It does have to be enabled to show and shows as "reputation power" in posts. The way I understand it the more reputation you have the more you bestow on someone when you boost their rep. Also if enabled members can toggle the display of their rep on/off.

Thanks. I never did like vBulletin's karma system.
For one thing, you can only see the reputation 'rank' and not the score...

Hey, Joddelle, congratulations for the new Skin

Only thing, is there a way to make it the Default skin for new users? It took me a while to figure out how to select it

That sounds like a good idea.

The new skin kinda makes it feel like...... home.

Love the new skin, joddelle, stand repped.

I think it is the default skin for new users.
I'm sure you joined the forum before the skin was installed.

Thanks all. I wanted it to feel like home. Looks like I succeeded!

EDIT:
I stand corrected. I logged out and got the vB default style as my default. I'm sure Havoc will take care of that :)

[Havoc]

Done. Thanks to Jodelle for helping me figure out how.

[solitu]

The skin is one main reason why I prefer the new forum! *rep*

[Corgrim]

I like it! Nice job, Jodelle.

I got the skin as my default (no action required) after just coming back to the forum (previously it had been the blue board default).
