As promised, here is a post about skinning for ImperialBB.
Since I assumed the position of ImperialBB Designer several months ago, I’ve been neck deep in more CSS and HTML than I’ve ever been in my entire online career. This was a completely new experience for me. The only thing I’ve ever done in the past 6 years, as far as skinning is concerned, is color changes, HTML changes, and very few graphics here and there to things that were already pre-existing.
I was never extremely good at the graphic aspect, and I still don’t think I am. The postbit buttons in ImperialBB v1 are of my design, and I’m very critical of them. The rest of the team enjoy them, but every time I look at them, I find some other small flaw that just irritates the hell out of me. Those are going to be revisited today, because I have this little problem where I can’t stand to have something I’ve done be less than perfect.
