pre Grand opening planed for -- .

Finally - can announce that we will be opening for styles sales .
Oct 1^st sooner as we finish them , all on line are in the final shake down and tuning ( new headers for some ) .

a few to start and the rest will , well more will be available soon there after .

We will set up pre grand opening discount code for the first ?. ? people .
if you have one can save a few more $ on styles and the semi-custom style of your choice .

Semi-custom styles : not going into it all the way now the basics ->

• you choose a style type/ layout you like - simple , tops - bottoms , tops - bottoms - sides or the inset/ outset in the top - with a bottom and/or sides .
  our styles continue thru the whole form , not end after the first few pages - even the admin areas have the changes made .
• find a header style you like .
  ( am trying to get up to 10 variations of them before then - if not we may make one you like if its feasible )
• Colors - use ours or choose your own . (will have a reference to them , images to 'color' in , a form/ page to use ) you 'tell' or 'show' us what colors go where , no questions asked!
• forum markers - post icons buttons - if its not in one of the styles , you can get the psd from another style that you think fits , the buttons/ icons already made . ( am still working on a better way )
• smilies and post icons , the new and old style defaults . from the old style will have hue shifted ones in the members graphic area .
  ( what you see/ may see here in the styles may or may not be included , am trying to make a set for the light and dark styles * )
• banner or header - will change the name on one we have , but will not make new ones .

a lot of what we are not doing is the 'time' consuming items - all of the graphics , buttons , headers . post icons and smilies ( as of now , post icons and smilies in a hue shift is still under consideration ) .
choosing the colors you want until they are right , this takes time and raises the cost and time involved .

we are making the start of 'your' own style to build on . we dont' recyle yours into ours :
your colors , layout - its' yours alone .

There are other people and sites that can do headers/ banners that will work for you .
post icons have not seen many , well no sets of yet .
Buttons and smilies - there are just so many other sites with them, will do them that its easy to find a set or sometime have a set made that will fit your needs .

this is just an idea of whats going to be available , at a price you can afford .
this idea/ system will be or at least the basics done by Oct 1 - when this all happens .

Using a "standard body style" , 'header footer combination' with a 'navbar' to suit .

1 years support will be for each header, footer , navbar and layout .
they are all the same and interchangeable between the style combinations .
colors and images other than vB defaults . the changes you make in color and all are not a problem .. .
we dont' support after the fact modifications/ plug ins or other peoples mods and templates .

any additions we did to most of the style layouts are done with separate css for them , this should enable them to work with most modifications that use the vBulletin css .
support for integration , adding of mods is available on a time bases via the forums .

fine tuning of this process happens as time progresses and our inventory grows , as does the variations we can do .

* any one who can/ would make a set of icons and post icons as in this post -- will arrange a style of your choice for you .
will need to see some of what you have already done please - can post it in the style request forum as only the thread starter and admin can read / see the post .
this offer expires when some we like and are suitable are accepted .
