New Skin: Unova Trainers!

[The R.S.]

To help enforce the aspect of our brand new Unova Region Role Play, I have created a brand new default skin to help appeal to potential new members so we look more like what we're advertising. The new skin is called "Unova Trainers" and, as I mentioned before, will now be R.T.C.'s new default skin that everybody will see when they first come onto the site.

In addition, a new code has been added that top-centers all background images on the forum. This is meant to better fit and appeal so images are evenly spaced out. Even on our old skins, you may notice a slight change, but nothing overly dramatic.

Though Unova Trainers is our brand new skin, if it isn't your taste, you can easily switch back to any of our other skins by accessing your profile. Also, this skin isn't 100% complete yet, the only real thing missing is the buttons for up on top; I'm trying to develop a nice set for it. Suggestions are welcomed and if you do help, I'll reward you for your effort.

Furthermore, another skin is also in the making. I meant to release it a long time ago, but crap happened. This one will be based on Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. It won't be a new default skin, but I hope to have this one out within the month.

If you have any questions, comments, or anything of the like, feel free to post them in here.

Woah. o.0

I really like this one. It kinda scared me when I logged on though. ^-^"

Luckily, I got to use Chao Club's image hosting site to host the huge-ass background image. Any other site would just shrink it down and that was simply no good. Now the big image is large enough that it should just about accommodate anybody's screen resolution. But what I would really like is for the full image to fit anybody's screen perfectly, despite the resolution. Still looking for that.

It still looks awesome. Good job R.S. Here's a sammich. XD

I now just placed our first ad onto the biggest and baddest site to advertise at: ProBoards Support. With the amount of people that drop by there, hopefully we'll pick up some new members from that alone. I'll be bumping the advertisement there every once in a while to keep it fresh and editing the advertisement as needed when new things arises.

Oh, and if you want to find places to advertise, I suggest going to ProBoards Support as well. Though you can't post there again since I got first dibs, you'll find links to countless other sites that you can take our advertisement to! It is a great place to find sites to advertise at. Just make sure you put your name in the advertisement where it says "[USER NAME HERE]".

Another good place to advertise: Look in our own advertisement board. People who have advertised in our First Timers board, we can more than likely advertise in their forum back.

Looks good. The text on the PM Panel still hurts my eyes to read a bit, but it's better than before.

And for the buttons on top, maybe you could try something that sort of "connects the buttons," like what we did here(wow, that place is dead), instead of having individual buttons, if you have any clue what I just said.

[The R.S.]

Who made those buttons?

[missingno]

One of the members there by the username of Gary Walsh. He's a very talented artist, if I do say so myself. He made all of the graphics there.

[The R.S.]

Can you see if you can get ahold of him again for us?

[missingno]

I'll try. That site's been dead for a while, so I'm not sure if I could, but I'll give it a shot.

[The R.S.]

If you can give it a try, it would surely be appreciated since it looks awesome.

[missingno]

I emailed him; I'm hoping he responds.

[The R.S.]

Keep me posted on that if you get a response and what he says.

[missingno]

Alright, I will. I haven't received a response yet, but I'll edit this post when I do.

EDIT: I got a response, and he say's he's fine with it. He just needs to know the size you want the buttons to be.

I just noticed in my advertisement, that I had the Pikachu promotion ending March 6th, 2010. Whoopsie-daisy! *fixes*
