Hmm Should I make the board as hippie looking as possible… Or as Dragon looking as possible.

@IllustriousVar, sorry to bother you, but what is the url for the default boards background? the one with exx’s face, the TTV logo and random lego parts?

No problem, you can find it via the ā€œinspect elementā€ method I proposed earlier, or by right clicking anywhere on the boards and selecting ā€œview page sourceā€. This is chrome stuff, but I know Firefox has a very simmilar system.

oh

whoops

but anyways, thanks man

Hey guys! I just wanted to let you guys know a few things.

1: I have made a public theme you guys can use! It incorporates the classic colors of the old boards style, but adds the new exx background. This is the direct link:


(sorry I haven’t whitelisted the boards in adblock yet, pls dun ban meh)

2: If you are having trouble figuring out the way around Stylish and CSS, I’m willing to help you guys make themes. Just tag me or reply to one of my comments and I’ll see what I can do for you.

Ooh. This is cool. I think I’ll have to try out making one myself.

If someone could make a list of all the different sections, and what they correspond to, that would be nice.

Hey man i was wondering
i want a Theme based on BZpower and was wondering if you could help me out,
is it just basic HTML with stylish or is it something more advanced if it’s just HTML i can code that proof here Cuphead5998's Corner
but am not fluent with java or anything else

It’s neither HTML or Java, it’s just plain old simple CSS. You aren’t writing any new elements for the themes, you’re merely manipulating how they appear by modifying the pre-written code we’ve provided.
