Orange Tastic 2.0


Image

The image above shows the new improved Orange Tastic 2.0 theme. Based on Smackdown5's original theme created back in 2005 I have updated it with LeSigner Girls help.

The new theme:

1. loads in less than 8 seconds
2. allows the board owner to change graphics, board name and logo/motto and background all without doing away with the signature "orange tab" of the theme.

I am donating this to RunBoard if they want it so it can be available for any one.

Now with new and improved CSS coding emoticon

I only helped a little. You're the one who did the major overhaul on the code and compressed the graphics to make the page load so fast. Well done, Pastor Rick! emoticon

Re: Orange Tastic 2.0


The hardest part is working the file size down to 28kb or less. The default CSS is 15.1kb right off the top so all I really have to work with is 12.9kb!

I tried checking no to appending the default CSS but it still shows up when running the web pages speed report emoticon....

Re: Orange Tastic 2.0


After you switched the default CSS off did you happen to tweak the layout/colors page, by any chance? I discovered a bug with that when I first designed Illusia. If I changed the layout/colors page, the default CSS would automatically set itself to "yes," so I had to go and change it back every time. Since I haven't made any changes to it since November 2005, I don't know if that bug was ever fixed, but your problem leads me to believe that it hasn't.

When I view the source code of your test board, I see that the default CSS is currently set to "Yes":

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://img.runboard.com/img/css/msg/default.css" />
