vBulletin 3 "Gamma"

[Bboy]

Yep .. P did some work on his own special version of the style. I did some work too last night and if you look at the lower left corner of the page (scroll all the way down if you have to) there's a drop down box where you can choose which style you want to see the board in.

The options (right now) are:

VB 3 Gray Skin (the board default)

VB 3 Default Skin (the one I am using - light blue)

VB 3 Photo Gray (Paolo's masterpiece)

VB 3 Classic (purple)

OK, let me rephrase that.

After 2 hours of exploration and disasters, let me just say that THE CONTROL PANEL SUCKS!

The BOARD itself is fine now, at least on a higher resolution screen.

If anyone is having problems with it fitting, PLEASE let me know!

Try it now.

That was MY fault.

1024x768 for me is not enough, therefore the new page was microscopic for me. I tweaked the WRONG template.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I can now see nearly all the page without scrolling to the side. Much better. I know form experience just how long it takes to implement changes to a Website. The process of installing a new format may take a few minutes, but the "tweaks" usually take days, if not weeks. Keep at it.

Which template, and how big are the scroll bars?

What's your resolution, 800x600?

It will take some time to get used to some of the changes. I have the screen color selection box at the bottom of the screen, with the four choices, however it will not switch from the "Gray Skin" screen. Do I have to change a setting in my User CP? Also, the wider screens do not fit in the window.

I found the screen color selection in the User CP but it doesn't work either. It shows the four selections but keeps reverting back to "Use forum default". The only color that I can get is "Gray Skin". (note: User CP, Edit Options, Misc Options)

I tested that, and both ways work fine for me. Once you select one from the drop down box on the main VB page, it sticks.

What browser are you using? What version OS? PC or MACintrash?

You can email me that info in private if you like.

And if you say AOL, I'm going to send Andrew over to beat you!

Found a partial solution. In

(note: User CP, Edit Options, Misc Options)

I made my screen color selection and then clicked "Save Changes". It locked in my selection for all forums. The selection box in the lower left corner of the individual forum screens still will not override it. I am using Windows XP.

In case you haven't noticed (!) :-\ I have upgraded the vBulletin installation here to the latest version, "Gamma".

Glad to see that you are still with us. It always takes time to adjust to changes. Keep up the good work!

Very well B. Whatever you desire.

New EA logos for all styles now in place (each logo color matches its associated style).

Feedback welcome.

Enjoy.

By the way, I like the new look and resolution. When the page is loading, the screen doesn't jump around like it used to. Change is a fact of live, and even cats have learned that sometimes you have to give in, even if "just barely".
