The Default Style for PhpBB2.2 @@

Post by Kaya83 »

just wondering if this style (the Subsilver, was it?) will be the default one for phpBB2.2 or if you're gonna work on it to modify it.

In that case i would suggest working on 2 things:
the icons (that i don't like very much, expecially the new topic & reply ones) & the blue bar at the topc of each topic / reply.

all other things seems to be so damned good to me i wouldn't know where to start from ^^

well hope this advice could help somewhat ;)

Style can come last, the core and functions needs to be there first, least not styles depend on things which may yet still be tweaked.

You don't paint the walls of the house before you've built it do you?

Accessibility and usability comes from those able to craft it.

A "middle of the road general user concensus" solution would probably be the least usable design.
