Dies to Removal

After giving it some thought, I've made prosilver the default forum skin. Now that the avatars are back on left, I think it makes a good visit card for the forums.

Also bear in mind that we can change the styles colors very easily in case you have suggestions for better aestethics.

I have updated the prosilver template so that the usernames go left as we are used to, so you guys might want to give a second chance to this skin. Same with prosilver_se

OK guys made subsilver2 the default skin

Tomorrow I'll try to fix the new skins so they have the same functionalities than the old ones.

Edited poll with the new options, you can change your votes if you want, the poll allows it.

Had some time and finally installed the two dark skins GR suggested:

CA_black
Lucid Lime

plus two others that were some of the most popular in http://phpbb3styles.net

aeroblue
prosilver special edition

Try them out and give us your feedback

I've looked already into it, I'll have to make code changes, and mod installs.

Another idea could be to do some screen captures of this forum with the different skins, once we have a skeleton forum structure set up, with indications on how to change the skin. It would be very invaluable.

I'm gonna wait a while, but otherwise it seems the subsilver2 skin is likely to be set up as the default one. I agree with this change.

Also we could seet up a banner now, it would improve dramatically the looks of the site.

GR, up to the task? bear in mind that each of the three skins has different rectangle dimensions.

I have put vphpbb3 as the default skin for nostalgia reasons (familiarity with MTGS scheme). However this scheme is 3.05 only (phpbb3 is at 3.0.10 as of now) and doesn't make the forum software justice.

silverlight2 or even the other (prolight) are much better. Should we skew familiarity in favor of better looks?

Putting the two dark skins GR suggested is in the todo list. This will come soon. Feel free to also suggest other skins (see in http://phpbb3styles.net)
