Skins for Xenforo?

[New Joe]

I've been looking around the free and the paid skins but can't find anything to my liking.

Looking for something along the lines of this skin by Pure VB , the one in blue:

You'll never find an exact match to that.

Have you looked at Audentio or Blue Pearl skins?

Looking now....

Audentio has a nice setup especially if you take his UI.X as a base skin

 

[New Joe]

What skin do you use here Snog?

Blue Pearl's Future Green.

It's been slightly customized since I purchased it, but that's the base for the style.

 

[New Joe]

I do like the EloquentBlue one, that could be the one for me maybe.

I also like this one, but there's no where to try it out for me till I get Xenforo:

What I found with the Blue Pearl's dark themes they don't always work well with add ons, the colours come out wrong and it take some tweaking to sort it out.

Have a look at these they really have some nice features http://www.audentio.com/shop/XenForo-themes

I do like the Blue Pearl skins.

But, there is one thing that is lacking in them. They don't assign all of the default colors in their styles. So, you'll need to keep an eye on add-ons that use the un-assigned colors and set them in the style's color palette if needed.

That's actually pretty common in custom styles. So, it's no real biggie.

Some add-ons don't follow the style color system. Or like I said above, the colors the add-ons use aren't set in the color palette.

I just found it all a pain having to do these changes lol

Didn't like any of those skins.

No problem.. installed.

I won't keep it though.

 

[DirtRider]

It looks like just a bit of a tweak on the default XF style, not that bad though

 

[New Joe]

Thanks, that was fast.
I thought it was going to be a fluid look, but it looks like the fixed style, can that be adjusted? As i like the skins to fill the whole screen like the fluid skins do...

The only thing I really don't like about many styles is the hard line where there should be a gradient..

 

[DirtRider]

Yes I did notice that as well

Easily changed. It's now fluid.
