Well.. as it stands, we have four:

IBP Default
Caliskin
Hardwired
BoHeGeHa

Would you like another?

Right now, I have downloaded:

Aquatic eXperience
ONi Style

But I am open to others (make sure they are either IBP 1.2 or 1.3).

Sure.. but who's doing the graphics?

Leviathan

whoevea wants 2 try needs a copy of the jpg templates for a skin.
or a skin and edit that.
post a skin or template so people can have a go.

*maybe* i'd do it... but i'm so bogged down with stuff to do, I can't currently.

plymoth45

i'm free to do it, but i don't ahve a clue how i would lol.

xfir

You need a .tar compressor. This is required for any skin making.

Leviathan

winrar does tar
i imagin the image files just go in the tar files with name like side1
give us a template or a skin so we can have a look.

BlackBox

should it be a regular uncompressed tar? or will it work if we Gzip the file? (.tar.gz)

OP2 themes: Kevin might have them at his site:

You may be able to GZIP it. I think the forum uses GZIP compressiom, but I am unsure as to if it'll work.

I don't care for the current ones.

Then browse http://www.ibplanet.com for one you like! It has to be either a 1.2 or a 1.3 compatable skin, however.

Okay.. but I have to warn you that it will be a while before you can use it. I have to edit the files for the IBShout, IBStore, and IBReferral stuff.

Yes. Red Alert is now a working skin. (posting for xfir)

Luweeg64

Yes.. see the posts above for the Default skin TAR..

I may have to update that though, because of the fact that the IBStore, IBShout, and IBReferral kind of changed the files.

CK9

Hey x, is it every skin or just this one that doesn't show credits?

Show credits in the topic view?

I guess I have forgotten to edit the skin_topic.php and skin_profile.php

I'll do that tomarrow, as I have plans tonight.
