Website

Do you want to make user selectable skins for your web site, or do you just want to make it more graphical so it has a skinned look? How about a link?

well...like your's with my graphics and design of course...laid out a lil' different too

hehe, well I have just used HTML and graphics I created in Photoshop. Do a Save as ... in Internet Explorer and choose "complete Web page". Then just pick through my source code and images and you'll see how I did it.

Basically, it's just HTML tables and GIFs. Some cells have an image in them, and others have background images instead, so text can be in them.

great! thank you very much!

what's your url? i wanna see some of the expert's work too!

actually, i have been wanting to figure out how to skin a website too...the closest i have found so far is by using style sheets that are fairly predefined, but you make each a set, and let the user pick a set...see project seven's website at http://www.projectseven.com/magic/downloads/proj1sample.pdf


chapter one pretty much covers it, but it isn't exactly what i was looking for in the long term... might get you started though, as far as an interactive skinning capability for your site...

and if you want to get into doing s ome hefty css coding(which is nothing compared to hard coding a website) try Top Style Lite (freeware - the lite version. buy pro if you like it enough!) at http://www.bradsoft.com/topstyle/download/litedload.asp

this tool makes the creation much easier, and displays your changes as you make them...takes a little getting used to, though, like everything else in life.

enjoy!

Kinrik, my site is at http://www.skinsmith.com .
I have to second that plug for Top Style Lite. I use it for CSS coding as well. It's a great little program.

Thanks a bunch i will check out that program also

Hey Mike, sorry it took me so long to get back here...I wasn't around a computer much this weekend, and almost forgot this thread. Nice site. I think I saw a plug on the frontpage of this place a while back...just didn't put two and two togther that it was yours. Looks great!
