Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 I'll have the old version ready shortly. What i'll probably do is switch everybody back to the old version, and then people can switch to the new version if they please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 It's now back to the old look, except the banner is still centered.....too lazy to change that back. In your profile, you will be able to choose the new look if you so choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 That'd be badass. Imo, its gotta have Anderson, Sweeney, and Bmac in it for sure. That is, if y'all could find good pictures of them that would fit w/ what you want the banner to look like. I'm sure they'll take pics from the road trip. This way it's unique stuff instead of pics we have in our sigs. It's slim pickings when it comes to minor league pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 To change to the new skin....click on "my controls" and look in the left hand border...under options is "Skins and Languages"...click there....your current skin will be set on OldSoxtalk.....to have the new look...change to NewSoxtalk.....NOTE: This is a work in progress and we will be fiddling with it. Anyone using the new skin can feel free to post here about it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 Also, since we plan on upgrading really soon, we plan on doing something like this on the new version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 It's slim pickings when it comes to minor league pics. Yes, it is. I've tried many times to find pics of minor leaguers on the internet, but it's hard to. Most of the time, when you do find pics, they're not new ones, but from the year or two before, which is good, but not as good as if they're recent.

MinnesotaSoxFan Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Make the whole thing grey. It isn't working for me with white in the message boxes. I like the rest though! It keeps getting better and better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 i like the gray on the main page better but whatever works is fine with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 I'm gonna be done editing for tonite. I'm probably gonna be gone all day tomorrow and possibly over the weekend so for any of you using the "New Soxtalk" skin, this is what you're stuck with unless Jas messes with it. The buttons and some images will continue to look funky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 It looks awesome right now, just a little bit akward with the blue buttons. Other than that, great job Heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I don't see any difference???????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I don't see any difference???????? Because you have to change your settings. Heads said how to in an earlier post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 Well, Jason had been wanting a Sox look since I joined up here....now there is one.....but you can still use the old look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I'll stick with the new one. I like it a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I got it now. I like the black an grey but the 1st thing in my head when I saw the new settigs:WSI. I said it first. The updated new skin is just too dark for me. Plus the images don't look good, they look choppy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 16, 2004 Author Share Posted July 16, 2004 If ya haven't seen it since ya first looked, dan, it's changed a bit. I may fix the images, I may not. Depends on the upgrade status. I'm most likely off to bed for the nite. If you guys have any comments, there's the PM and my various EMails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Maybe the choppy pictures are via your cheap ass computer Dan. J/K I like it alot. Can't wait to see the final copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 I think the next step will be creating some custom images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 It looks good IMO. I just have the same beef as everyone else. How the blue buttons have all those white squares around them. If that could be squared around or we could get new buttons; it'd definitely be HQ. EDIT: I just noticed this; how come you can't see the locations of people when you're on the old skin, but you can on the new skin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldmember Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 (edited) just goofing off real quick and turned one of the buttons into black and white. very easy to do and only took like a minute. just thought i'd post it to see if you liked it that way and so you can do whatever with it... edit: and i can do the others that way tommorrow if you guys wanted me to or someone else can. just open them in photoshop and go to image>adjustments>desaturate (shift+ctrl+u)...

No, they don't match with the background so the shape of the icons show. For example the arrow icons on the main page have white backgrounds so I have a square of white among black. Also the icons such as 'help' 'search' and 'members' aren't the clean shapes they appear. When the color is changed they have jagged edges. And believe me...my computer ain't cheap. I mean c'mon, I live on the north shore. We don't know the meaning of cheap out here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 On the graphics we just need to figure out how to remove that ugly looking white box around them (Like Dan mentioned). After that, some badass custom graphics (even ones that are just different color like goldmember made) would really finish this thing off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
