Download: via PM.OK, i did the layout, and the banner. Hope you don't mind a dark greenish color scheme (kinda jungle-like; but works great with the banner ). Just one thing, though: IE (Internet Explorer) does not render it properly. Looks great in Firefox and Opera, though . I left comments in the HTML for convenience.

I never use Strict doctypes. I always go with Transitional. But why is there a table within the table? I remember doing that before, on a previous template of mine, and it didn't help me. I had to place the banner as a background image for the table cell it is in, and set width and height for the cell. But if that suggestion works, then forget about mine.

Yeah, InDesign is a good program for what you want to use. I'm not sure what's the general size for these things, but i'd suggest going out, and getting a ruler, measure a magazine, and just input the size when creating a new document. Also, i think 600dpi or above is good for this kind of work (very good quality, but big/huge file size).

Some archive/compression software have a feature to repair corrupted ZIP or other archive files. You could tell them if the archiving program they're using supports that, to go ahead and try it, and see if that works.

I must say, you did a very nice job pulling it off for SMF. (My first template for SMF was basic, and i used a SMF template creator which i found at the SMF site, and just modified whatever it gave me.) I would suggest just making the hover effect on the main navigation just a pure green background: no gradients. And in my browser (Opera) the swirl in the middle, to the right of the log-in, gets cut off.

There's a program called WINE for Linux which supports many programs that would normally run on only Windows, on Linux. Just download the one that's right for the Distro you're gonna be using.

Sorry dude, but your posts lack quality: what your posts need to be approved. Although, you made it to ten posts, most of them don't contribute much to the forums. Work on your posts, and re-apply later. Thanks.

Gotta say, the red really stands out. I would suggest to never, if possible, use basic colors; except for black and white, or very near these two. Always go with the shade of a color. And some of the colors used already don't match. I would add some header tabs, for side-sections. If i were to go with one of these templates, i'd go with the modified version of the bottom one. Seems like you're trying to go with a simple tech template. I have a tutorial on my site on how to make one.

Yes, the "professional" layout currently present at DBZdivx.com can be done with pure CSS--all, except for the banner. The banner (and any affiliate buttons, hehe) is the only thing that can't be done with the help of CSS. I will see what i can do.

It's not bad. I would just recommend less spatter on the render's face. And leave any spatter that's on the clothes, and edges. And maybe more style with the border. Though, that white spot on the right, makes the left side feel odd. I'd add more stuff to the background on the left.

Technically, the file is gonna be opened anyways, by the script, for reading and writing. Though, i think it's best not to change permissions to the file.However, this is how i'd go about it. I'd use file_get_contents() to place everything in a variable. Then, use some kind of replacement function, to search for "$CONFIG['lang'] = 'en';", using some kind of regex, and replace whatever is the value. Then just overwrite the content of the file with the variable. But i don't know how good this will work. So, back up any files before testing.

The kind of slavery the Bible OK's is not the kind that was banned from most places. The Bible has set rules that actually protect the slave. And, at the year of Jubilee (i think this happens every 7 years), the slave is to be released; unless, of course, the slave chooses to stay.Exodus 21:2-11 Exodus 21:26-27

Here is the coding for mine: <?phpheader("Content-type: image/png");$arr = array("random text","random text","random text","random text","random text","random text","random text");$string = $arr[array_rand($arr)];$i = 10;$font = "../fonts/arial.ttf";$size = imagettfbbox($i, 0, $font, $string);$width = ($size[2]+3) + ($size[0]+3);$height = abs($size[1]+3) + abs($size[7]+3);$im = @imagecreate($width, $height) or die("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream");$bgcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 238, 242, 247);$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);imagettftext($im, $i, 0, 2, abs($size[5]), $text_color, $font, $string); imagepng($im);imagedestroy($im);?>It is also made to adjust the width and height to fit the text.

Ah, my method is a bit different (see my sig block). I filled an array full of phrases, and used array_rand to randomly pick which one to display per load. I even made it to match the background of the forum. Just the profile background is a bit different. I chose the font Arial just so it can look plain. Other fonts would have worked, though.Btw, in the code you have shown, you don't specify which font to use, like i did in my code.

I guess he forgot. But here's some Pro's and Con's for Linux you could use: Pro's: Most distributions are free (Open-source). Good for servers. Some distributions have good user support. Some distributions allow you to test before installing (LiveCD). Con's: Some distributions require some knowledge of how Linux works to get the most out of that distribution. Not many companies make programs for Linux. Meh, i haven't used Linux, besides a LiveCD. But that's what i can think of off the top of my head.

The GFX forum is really more for entertainment purposes, if you will. It's more to take a break from the other sections of the forum, and have fun with GFX. And, also, (maybe) get some tips and tricks with GFX.

I remember back when i was trying to do the same thing. I've tried WAMP, and others, and they just didn't work out the way i wanted to. So i went out looking at many ways to install these things manually. And after many trials and errors, i finally managed to get it to work the way i want. I also made a tutorial about it. Pretty straightforward, and has some troubleshooting solutions (the kinds i have encountered >_>). Tutorial Link. It may not be for PHP5, but the installation for PHP5 isn't that much different. But you'll get Apache 2 working, and the rest.

The Sigs section of the GFX forum used to give out credits. However, because of so many users posting non-quality posts, it became a no post count section. Some sections of the GFX forum might still give credits for posts. I just can't remember which ones.

I'm guessing permission denied cause you don't have public_html chmodded to 777. According to what i read in the first post, you want the script to create a file for you with a specified template. You can't do so without chmodding the folder that the "test.php" file is in, to 777. You'd be better off just having the script add the stuff from the Content field, and just display the HTML on submit. Then copy, and manually create, and paste into a new file.

This can be done with META redirect to the file. Have PHP dynamically create the META tag for it. Retrieve the URL of the file from the database. This part is just basically keeping track of page views (the page for the above quote). You will have to have a database with all download names, urls, and another field for page views. And just add 1 to the current value of page views. I'm not a MySQL database person, so i can't provide any coding for it.

It won't stretch the forum if you use the IMGFIT bbcode we have here, on this forum. :blink:As for the template: I think the navigation background could use a horizontal gradient, to add some kind of outward effect. "XboxGalaxy" part could be stretched out more to cover more space in that area. Besides that, not bad.

Wouldn't a foreach statement work better here? $dir = ".";$file = scandir($dir);foreach ($file as $key => $value){echo $file[$key]."<br/>\n";}

Well, if you have other male friends, you can tell them to keep an eye out for that guy, when they're around you. Kinda like a voluntary bodyguard thing.

If you're naturally beautiful (that is, you don't put on make-up and dress in a specific way), then it can't be helped, and, yeah, you're gonna have to just pretend he's not there, for now. However, if it's the make-up and clothes that you wear that is making him do these things, then i'd suggest a change.

If he won't do it, i will. I've already finished filling out the other layout request, so i have more time to make you a layout. If anything i'll try to catch KuBi on AIM to remind him.
