new skin!

ITS AWESOME!

i cant wait for STW2!

Good job indeed.

My only criticism is, what is with the Wizard on the new posts?

Lovely stuff, but it appears to have displaced the bland blue skin that I really, really liked. It was my default for years. And now it's gone. *sniff*

I think the database is still doing something. The Breeze seems bit messed up indeed as it look likes combination of the old and STW.If you pick the STW skin, it will show all the new skins features.

Awesome!

It's kind of bloody.

Am I the only one who thinks it looks a bit like what a Third Reich skin would like?

Well it looks like it has lot of red,black and white. Colours of third reich flag, but also colours of Shogun Total War.

:loud applauds:

Tosa san :bow:
You can forget about the rule line between the posts & sigs in the Guild skin!

Cool beans.:7ninja:

Looks great!!

I just switched to it, I must agree, it is quite nice. I'm glad for that, I did't like the changes made to the guild style, which I had been using for quite some time.

It seems to have changed some of the colors of the Guild skin?

Blank bands and black text seems to have been carried over. By the way what are those symbols beside people's avatar names? Some have these samurai guys and some have what looks like an 'x' or the legs of said samurai guy. I find it quite stange.

I figured out what this means: online and offline. Dumb ol' me!

Yeah, stuff from the guild skin has been changed, but the only thing that really matters is the top bar has gone black, and the post quick reply/go advanced etc is red.

The new text style is kinda cool.

A little issue I have noticed is that links are no longer blue or underlined unless you scroll over them. Like this.

That just looks slightly bolded.

Definitely an improvement over the previous options. They weren't bad, but this has a bit more character. Now, if we could just get Sengoku back. :smartass:

Thanks for all the work, Tosa.

Tried it out; now I switched back to The Guild.

It looks like some of it is bleeding through. The bar at the top of the thread will occasionally go black and some of the writing turns red.

Links in the posts turn red when you point at them.:wink:

The white on red for anything with a white background is getting painful after about 6 hours of constant browsing. Its a bright red.

I havent noticed as Breeze which i have been using is lot more white then STW.

Kagemusha made this nice skin.

It wasn't supposed to alter any of the others, I guess I caused that or the import system is buggy.

Nice. Good blend between the classic STW skin and new influences. Plus the site coordinates with my avatar for everyone, not only those who selected the (sadly missing since upgrade) sword dojo skin.

Hehe, it's a kneeling teppu ashigaru - a footsoldier with a musket. When there are new posts he's firing his gun, when there aren't he's merely aiming it.

The 'X' is a folding stool of the kind commanders used to sit on. The other icon shows a tiny samurai warlord seated on his stool and brandishing his war fan.

Are there others beside pevergreen who´s eyes are melting as a bit more broken white could be applied if necessary?

It's not that. Text that was a different color is now red. The box I'm typing this has a red border. And now hyperlinked text is the same color as normal text.

In STW skin, the box is supposed to have a red border and hyperlinked text is black unless you hover your mouse over it.When you hover your mouse over it the link turns red. If there is much dislike over the colour of hyperlinked text.It can be turned back to blue.

Some of you might remember that 'The Guild' was actually called 'The Sword Dojo' prior to the release of MTW1. A great return is too far fetched? :)
