Hahaha.

Better watch out, I hear gearhead has connections and he'll probably tell Santa to just bring you a lump of coal! :LOL:

Yea, and even though my belly is much smaller, I do have some grey on my head and my beard!!! So watch it.

Ok, let me tell you guys that me and the thunder from downunder believe in the .style file....

here are the instructions:

Note: .style files are an ingenious method of importing styles to your phpbb or IP database. I thought it was phpbb 101, but not everyone uses this method, but ask MG or thunder, IT WORKS. It contains EVERY part of the style for your forum.

Boy, Santa Clause is gonna be good to me, and I'll make sure he's good to you guys.

First, make sure your cache is empty. Go to ACP and uninstall and delete files (delete files may not be avail.), however, once the MG Christmas is gone, go back and delete the cache 2 or 3 times, then go to your cache folder for IP and hit refresh once and delete all the files that occured since users may still be on your site. (One safe way is to lock your site while doing this to keep having to delete the cache).....

Once the style is gone completely, then unzip the file, (I would use the unzipped version), and add it to your cache folder in IP only if the folder is empty, or very low on cached files).

Then go to Import styles. At that point, IP will show you the file that's cached or the .style file.

Go ahead and import it. Then you should test it. After it's ok, then you can empty your cache again in the ACP.....

You shouldn't have any problems at that point. :mricy: :mricy:

I'm on so PM me if you get stuck.

what shoud i select

Tick the box next to MG Christmas Blue. You don't have to make it the default forum style. If you want to make it default, tick the other box as well. After that, click Import. :)

Ok, this is totally weird......Aleee didn't have any problems......

Ok, well, let me just put each file up in the public folder. That will take more time. Just dump that style, there's something wrong with the file..........

Limun: Can you post pic of style?

Ok, now we are getting somewhere. I am going to just put the standard files in zip now for the style.

It looks like the import export contained more of my styles that I didn't want to put in .style file.

Please be patient, Limun and me are working right now for a zip file ANYONE can install and have good luck with.

I will call it xmas beta 2.0.....

he he.

thanks for the patience with someone who has not released a style before!

:mricy:

ok i edited bg_th
so do u like it ...

Of course, that's what I'm talking about. I needed a little for that table header png.

I think it's great. I'm going to put your tweaked version first, since you helped me with the package.

Thanks a million!!

I apologize to anyone who had problems with the theme. Once Limun helped me create a proper package, it's all good now.

I am going to create a few image packages for the theme.

Thanks Limun, and Aleee for keeping the faith.

I chickened out and put for bg_th.gif, and used the bg_th from "gray" which is MG Autumn. It has a more plain and simple look:
