New Skin

**lafsunlmtd** · 01-08-2008, 05:04 AM

We want to pop up a new skin for AF, we are going to keep the same logo and much of how the header is. The main this we want to do is make it wider, add a side bar on most pages, and some other changes. I am going to do it with a site point contest for the design and have it coded separately.

I'll post a link here so that if anyone wants to participate they can.

I wouldn't mind it being wider, on 1680 width there's a lot of wasted space for me. I just want there to be a red version, I don't really care for the blue version.

Do you happen to have a PSD file for the logo? I'd be more than willing to take a shot at designing a new style for AdminFusion, however, I'd need something to work with. If you can, please feel free to contact me via PM and I will provide you with an e-mail address where you may send the file(s).

I like this one and tbh, I'd prefer if it was kept available after a new skin was done. My only quarrel is that it is fixed, not fluid.

**bdude** · 01-08-2008, 08:30 AM

I agree re: making it wider, as long as it's not two wide. I hope the skin's good!

**Jolteon** · 01-08-2008, 11:04 AM

Well. I prefer fluid personally, but just wider than this current would be good, my resolution size of the screen gives me massive blank bits at each side

Meh, whatever you do, don't fall into the trap that a lot of websites are doing now, which is to ignore that despite the fact you have a fancy pants wide screen monitor, a lot of us are still at 1024x768. I still like this skin, but I'm open to seeing a new skin after all the time with this one.

Will their be color options for the members to choose from? Certain colors (like red) give me migraines lol

ETA: I am excited though to see what you guys come up with!

I wouldn't go wider than 980px if you're doing fixed rather than fluid.
