Skin Name: Shinigami Blues Skin URI: http://www.lunaescence.com/ Developer: Sally Anderson (Lazuli) Developer URI: http://sally.lunaescence.com/ License: Free to use. Feel free to edit, modify, or alter my skins in any way. Doing so will not offend, upset, or bother me in any way. In fact, all I care is that you correctly credit the people whose material I may have used (if applicable). I, myself, don't need any credit. Description: Dark blue and white themed skin meant to be easily compatible with the upcoming version of eFiction. Please be sure to read the readme.txt file before you alter this skin. Notes: This skin was based off from the skins on my site, which has been heavily modified to fit our requirements. I believe I have removed all of my custom tags, but I cannot guarantee that. Also, I can't offer any [reliable] support for this skin, nor am I available for commissions. Due to my college schedule, I simply don't have time to offer any help. I'm really sorry, but I don't. :-( __________________________________Shinigami Blues Read Me File __________________________________ ------------------------------------------ Custom Graphics ------------------------------------------ Raw files for the logo, menu headers, page background, and listing sidebars are available in: - PhotoShop *.psd - Paint Shop Pro *.psp - Illustrator *.ai - Fireworks *.png. Other formats available upon request. Fonts Used: - Eurostyle I think I got Eurostyle with my copy of Flash, since I don't remember downloading it. If you don't have it and would like to use it yourself, it ranges from $22 - $175 USD at: http://www.linotype.com/1816/eurostile.html Otherwise, other sans-serif fonts would probably look equally good, such as Tempus Sans, Verdana, or Arial. ------------------------------------------ The CSS Files ------------------------------------------ For this skin, I've created a total of four style sheets that control the layout of the site. - style.css -- Contains global styles that appear on multiple pages throughout the site. - home.css -- Controls everything that appears on index.tpl - user.css -- Controls everything that appears on user.tpl - story.css -- Controls viewstory.tpl, listings.tpl, and challenges.tpl ------------------------------------------ Customizing ------------------------------------------ About the only things you may wish to customize is the menu headers, logo, and listing sidebars. With the exception of the header, the menu headers and listing sidebars should be fairly easy to customize. Simply make your changes, save as .gif or .png and upload to your site. The logo may give especially new users grief if they want to majorly change it. Due to the way the header is created, your logo needs to be no taller than 48 pixels. Otherwise you may end up needing to add more black to the top of bkgrd.jpg file in order to allow it to fit properly. If you do this, be sure to update the position of the .graphicsLine and .mainContent classes. Right now, .graphicsLine is set to appear at 60 pixels from the top of the page and .mainContent is set to appear at 259 pixels. (That is, from the top of the area where you actually see web pages.) Simply add the number of pixels you added to the top of bkgrd.jpg to both numbers to get their new position. You may have to experiment, since I don't know your browser or archive. Enjoy!
