Question The Skinner Feedback Thread

We've added a new feature to the default template that helps blend the template into your default site color scheme. However, we're in the process of expanding on this feature for Kunena 2.0. It would be great if users could give us some suggestions and feedback on this feature. Please post this this thread any ideas or suggestions for improvement. DO NOT POST anything that you need help with. This is just to get a sense of ways we can improve this feature.

Thanks!

Hi Ron and Thank You so much of this feature. I like it very much because I'm very lazy to edit CSS

A few comments I have noted in my tests and they goes to(with my template) that "Legend" and it's colors... they all are in same color, so no differences between Site Administrator, Global Moderator, Moderator, User and Guest... also all usernames(they are links) take color from template as usually.
Pictures tell color places which have no differences:


Suggestion is: if possible to add some additional selection for those so then also legends have prominent role and usernames take the color which is selected/defined for that legend/group?

:woohoo:
Hats off to you Ron,
agreed, some way to have just a bit of customization would be great.
Ledgened color as far as I can tell from what Mickey has said.

I really love the Skinner template. It works great for me site, specially since I have a multisites setup.

There's a few suggestions I have.

First would probably be better automatic support for major template makers. I use RocketTheme templates and editing the CSS to inhert the correct color information was time consuming. It'd be nice if it was a bit more automatic. It'd be nice if there was a drop down box where you could select the publishing house your theme came from, RocketTheme, YooTheme, Joomla Art, etc.

From what I can tell, there's no defined styles for quotes, articles, spoilers tags and what not. This is something that should be included in the template. I had to create these by hand using borders and what not.

I think input fields like the subject line and body should default to white. With some of my templates, it blended in so will, I kept forgetting to enter in a subject. Which brings me to the next point, the alert CSS declaration, for when the subject and body fields are empty, should be defined. The default red setting in Blue Eagle should fit fine for most sites.

Anywho, thanks so much for the awesome work!

First time I've used this template and I love!

Better support for IE. Currently in IE8 the skinner seems to still pull certain code from the default. Like borders and such!
