If you don't find a skin available on Web Wiz Guide that gives the forum the look and feel you want, you can easily make your own skin to change the
colours, look and feel of the forum to create your own unique looking forum. To do this simply follow the instructions below: -
- Make a back-up of the file default_style.css found in the 'css_styles' directory.
- The default_style.css contains the Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) which controls the fonts for the text and links, the CSS part looks like the following.
.text {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px; color: #000000;
}
- You can edit this file using notepad, or for simpler editing you could use CSS Style Editing software such as Top Style Pro.
- Changing the parts shown in red will alter the font, sizes, colours, and font types used in your forum.
- Once you have finished altering the CSS file save the amended versions and test your forum to see if it looks like it should. If not go back to the CSS file and change it again
to you get the look you want.
- You can also change the buttons, images, and icons used in the forum by overwriting the images and buttons found in the forum_images directory with your own.
