This sites SMF skin/template

Post by williamsf1_fan » Thu Aug 25, 2005 8:08 am

hi,
I am relatively new to Mambo and am building a site with a SMF forum.
I love the look of this forum - is this a standard skin/template or one that you have designed?
Is there anyway of obtaining this skin?

Thanks for your help

Text links up the top, different log location, clickable logo etc etc.. there will be more changes in the future though.

Check out http://www.simplemachines.org for any other templating tip and advice. :D

I like how you guys took out alot of the extraneous information to make it look cleaner. I was wondering if you just commented out the sections you didnt need or if there were further mods done?

I love the SMF forum however, all the crap at the top and bottom dont make for very good integration into most mambo themes.

Guider... please don't drag your complaints to another board.
Your issues were addressed, quite comprehensively over on simplemachines.org...  Sorry if you didn't like the response, but they were addressed.
(in addition, as stated, something like 80% of your "requests" can be handled through the theme system...    so Make your own, clean-looking theme!)

yup, this template is not based on bloc's.  This is based on the base SMF template, although as you can tell, somewhat modified.
