New Styles for the forum (including WORK SAFE styles)

Mark · 12-10-2005, 03:12 PM

Ok, we've added a few more styles, most notably I added a style called "Version 2.0 : Stealth" for a true work safe e90post.

Im hoping this is useful for some people, what it is, is a basic style with all car graphics removed from the headers so you can surf the site without having to worry about someone looking at your screen and seeing a giant car or anything there. (For people that want true stealth, you can also disable all signatures and avatars from being displayed. To do this, click on SETTINGS in the top nav bar, then goto User Options. In there you will see the checkboxes you need to disable.)

Again, to make E90post truly stealth and work safe here are the steps:

1) Click on "Settings" on the top silver bar
2) Click "Edit Settings" on the left hand column
3) Scroll down to "Thread Display Options"
4) Unclick "Show Signatures" "Show Avatars" (and possibly "show images" if you don't want to see attached pictures of cars)
5) Scroll down to "Miscellaneous Options"
6) Change Forum Skin from "Forum Default" to "Version 2.0 : Stealth"

Alternativly, you can quickly change the style on the fly in a non-permanany fashion by looking on the bottom bar of any page, where you will see a drop down menu which lists the current style (Version 1, Version 2, etc..). To change, simply pull down the bar and choose which style you'd like. That simple

We will add more styles in the future and try to update this area with new on that.

Let me know if you guys like this and find it useful!

I do.

Edit: Sice this is a poll, I prefer the original version 1. Very descent look!

Mark · 12-11-2005, 12:22 PM

Just an update, I added a new one called Version 3. This is just a change for those people that like things a little darker colored.

StewtheBassman · 12-11-2005, 09:24 PM

Gawd i do, kind of wish i didn't though, the day goes by sooooooo slow with no work!

though I do think it's hilarious that there's a "STEALTH" mode option now, it should be renamed to "SLACKER AT WORK" mode

BTW dancing sweater cows on peoples signatures =

Goddess of truth be told ! Behold my friends she represent the new "car" girls. This is no longer a "man"'s territory. We are threatened by our lovely counterparts.

LOL ! Just joking of course. We still hold the flag ! LOL !

ase2dais · 12-12-2005, 10:16 AM

Broken1 · 12-12-2005, 01:41 PM

I like the options too...the stealth one is alot "easier" to use when surfing here using my palm or psp.

Mark · 12-12-2005, 02:33 PM

I just added a poll to this thread just to gague to see which style people are using. The info will definatly help me refine the board more in the future, if you don't mind voting it would be much appreciated

Oz · 12-12-2005, 03:44 PM

I prefer Version 1 because I'm way used to it now but I think Version 2 would look better if it had lighter shade of grey. Just my 2 cents

Good job!
