"To make RPs on a seperate forum! Insanity. But where else could we be free from the clutching hand of the Parasites? Where else could we tell a story they would not try to control, a board that would not constantly shut down? It was not impossible to build Desperato on a seperate forum. It was impossible to build it anywhere else..."
Ok Im done now XD

Aww man, now I feel like someone should make a skin with a header that's similar to the "Welcome to Rapture" sign, only it says "Welcome to Desperato" ... x)

Oh man, it would be sick to Bioshock up these forums! Have some nice Art Deco features and stuff. Duuude XD Id do it since Del is pretty busy with school, but I havent touched proboards in years. Im probably pretty rusty. Plus I dont have the necessary authorization. But yeah, there should totally be a skin like that lol Nice one Turk.

Yess I would do it, only I have no knowledge of how to do anything like this. !!! I would definitely use the Rapture skin if someone made one.

If its still like it was years ago it shouldnt be too difficult at all, its just actually doing it and getting the ideas thats the problem XD But if Del wants to hand over some temporary authorization to me, Id gladly do it... XD

Haha, yeah, that sounds fine to me!
I can make you an admin temporarily or something to allow you access to the skins. Just make sure you click create new skin. If you modify the current skin the one we have now will be lost.
And that would make our third skin!
Yaaaaay.

There. I have made a group called MAKER OF SKINZ and put CO into it. It will allow you to modify the skins though I'm not sure how you will get to it...
For me there's a button at the top in between members and profile that says admin. Maybe that appears for you now?

So Im not really sure what to do with the color scheme... Its currently black and grey. I tried black and a kinda light blue and it was looking pretty cool, but I dunno. I tried to get a color that could kinda match the background but so far no luck...
Anyway, go ahead and tell me what you think, what should be changed or improved and what not. Oh and take some pity on my banner, I made it with my super awesome Paint skillz XD Just head into your profile and change the skin to "Rapture" ;D

This looks great! We need more hi-res images, though, and some proper tiling. And I can't read the top menu very well. Aside from that, it's AWESOME. I love what you did with the color scheme. Also, the read/unread forum images look great! >:3 ...I still need to play this game. Now I wish I could make skins, too! LOL

I had to work with what I had. There arent really many hi res images for things like the plasmid containers because... well only the Bioshock wiki needs something like that XD And I just kinda took what Del had up there as the top bar buttons and just put an image behind them. Ill take a look and see if I can make it better/easier to read... :/
But thanks though IC! ;D

You could try changing the opacity, or darkening them. I dunno. But yeah, I'm glad you did it though!
Sweeetness~

Yeah I could do that... if I had a program better than Paint and knew how to use it XD
And Im trying to find a good Bioshock replacement for the stars under our names but so far no luck... Hmm. Im still looking though
But yeah it's still not 100% done so give me some feedback. I'm going to work on those buttons up top tomorrow since IC said she can't read them too well. Guess what's good for one person isn't always good for everyone else haha

O:
I likes it!
We do need to get a good background though! Whether it's just and pattern or an image doesn't matter, but I think we need something besides the blacknesssss!
Other than that, I think you've done an fantastic job so far!
Maybe there's a way we can get the board to pop a bit more... I'll go code hunting to find some fancy schmancy stuffz.
