Below is an exact copy of the Global Colour Scheme from my Admin CP/Skins/Edit Skin Properties/. I
was trying to take screen shots of every possible page and mark each one but I found that the combination
of pages became too much. Since I couldn't see myself labelling all 50 or so pages I decided to
take 18 full screen shots of what I thought were the
most used pages. I then then labelled each part of the image to corespond with the number I put beside
each line in the Global Colours listed below. The only downfall is that the screen shots are pretty
big in file size (average size is over 100 kb) and will
be a bit slow to download for regular phone modems. If anyone knows how to keep the clarity of an
image while re-sizing it please contact me so I can fix the images. I use Paint Shop Pro and Adobe
Photoshop. Thank you.
Numbers 1,3 and 4 are pretty self explanatory but I will go ahead and explain them in this paragraph
just to be on the safe side since I did not include them in my screen shots.
#1) The table width pertains to how wide you want your board to go.
If you want your board to fill the entire screen from left side to right side then choose 100% but
to
be honest, it usually looks better and is easier to read when you have a small amount of white space
on either side so I would suggest leaving it at 95%.
#3) The board logo is obviously the Ikonboard logo at the top left position on the page. You can
easily
replace this logo with your own. You can either make up another logo, name it logo.gif and overwrite
the current one found in your non-cgi/Skin/Default/images folder or you create your own logo and
name it what you want but you need to put it in the same non-cgi/Skin/Default/images folder and
write in the name in the Admin Control Panel you see below.
#4) The logo alignment indicates where in the invisible box the logo is placed. Experiment with right,
left and
center just to show you where it is placed with these variables.
I suggest you print this page (and even the screen shots) for easy identification purposes). Just
compare the number in the far right column to the number on the screen shots. The same number
can be, and usually is, on several pages.
