hi
i need some (actually a lot of it) help with applying style to upb forum (text files based)
anybody?:q:
they don’t have a help area on the site? i have never heard of upb…
no - they don’t…
btw
it’s very usefull if you can’t use MySQL…
it needs PHP only!:thumb:
ok, switched to PHPBB v2.0.5
but still need help with this skin 
they have help areas on their forum. You will get better help there than you will here. They made it, they know how to skin it.
Well said, Jubba.
yea they have a great forum on their site which answers all questions regarding your concerns
Simple way:
- Download a style-zip file
- Unzip it into /phpBB2/templates/ on your server
- Enter the admin-mode on your phpBB-forum, and change the style (find the option in the menu)
And yes, their page/forum is very informative.

hey did you make your own? i am attempting it right now, not too hard but very time consuming
I did once, but let me tell ya, it was the worst experience ever! For instance, to only change the colors of the forum, you had to change the RGB-code in a LOOOOT of places. I wish they had put the colors as globals, at least.
Hmm, wait a minute, I just remembered that the new version of the forum comes with a color-editor. Just go into the admin-panel and I think its there. Yepp, Styles Admin -> Create. Wow, that should make it simple and fast as h**l !!! There is plenty you can change quickly here - colors, fonts, images etc.
yea what im doing is laying it out in photoshop first so i dont get confused
good idea to get a visual image first…just dont do what I did, and edit it all by hand (css-files, html-files, etc,etcetccc AAAARGH!!!)
hehe
i tried, but i need to edit all the .tpl files…
i’m 2 dumb…
