gembels Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 does any info about aquasoft skin release for vb4 ? Link to comment
Timan Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 When vB4 goes final. They change the templates drastically in each beta/rc version. So have to wait until their template set is finished. Link to comment
gembels Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 vb gold release today.. hoping good news from Timan soon Link to comment
Timan Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 WOW already? I'll have to give it a look. Link to comment
sadam Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) Hi Timan I know you will not like this question but are you going to make the aqua soft theme for vb4 and do you have an ETA Thanks in advance Edited December 22, 2009 by sadam Link to comment
Timan Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Yep, version 5 of the theme will be for both vb4 and ipb3 only. No ETA yet, they've changed everything in vb4 (not a fan so far...) Link to comment
Timan Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I'm gonna go ahead and ask my vbulletin users that are upgrading... is the cms and blogs a priority? Also how much customization do you want on the theme, they've really changed the way css is handled (main css) on this new ver. Link to comment
Eros Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 hey Tim, well for me forum is the main priority & blog also, I won't be using this cms, so it's not a priority for me. the default theme of vb4 I think heavlily inspired for current apple.com website, like if you look at the new tabbed navbar, it's so close to apple.com website's top menubar. you can do two thing; 1. customize it like apple.com website with similar colors, top menubar, etc. it'll be easy for you and it'll keep our mouth shut for many month 2. make it same as current aqua-soft theme with highlighting vb4's features. it'll be a pain for you but we all want this skin Link to comment
gembels Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 forum is the main priority..Agreed with Eros Link to comment
sadam Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 forum is the main priority..Agreed with ErosI think many people will be happy with the forum part first the cms and blogs could come later Link to comment
DaffyDuck Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Forum is the major importance, blogs maybe, cms - not really. Essentially the way I see it, is to have the same functionalities you havevon Aqua-Soft - with a main welcome screen that can be used to aggregate news, or articles, that are linked to the forum content, in a separate forum section. This would work similarly to the iPhone theme you have for ipb - two tabs, one 'portal', one 'forum' Link to comment
RobiMac Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Tim, We will be using the full suite. The CMS will be handy for tutorials, etc. Link to comment
Timan Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am just trying to get some feedback on this, but would you guys be willing to pay $5~ for upgraded versions of the skins? (ie vb3.8 -> vb4.0)Reason I ask, is vb4 and both ipb3 are completely new. Both require rewrites from the ground up. Which take tons of time to do. They also are more complex than ever with stuff like cms, blogs etc. Link to comment
DaffyDuck Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have no problem even paying $20 for an upraded skin. Do not sell yourself short. You do some excellent work, and you should be compensated for it. Link to comment
gembels Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 $5 thats allright and reasonable.. still waiting.. Link to comment

gembels Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 haha.. vbulletin upgrade to 4.0.1 and they change little bit about the templates.. they will change something else in 4.0.2.. keep update in here.. Link to comment
applebyte Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 forum would be enough for me, because it wont be the standard theme in my forumi would pay 5$ for an upgradean 10 or more for the hole upgrade (incl blog and cms) Link to comment
EliasAlucard Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I have no problem with paying 5 bucks. Your skin is awesome. However, I would like to request that you make this skin compatible with the following vBulletin plugin:/>http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=196458I also don't understand why you're neglecting vBulletin over IP.Board. Isn't vBulletin more widely used? Either way I'm looking forward to upgrade to vBulletin 4 but I'm waiting for your skin to be compatible with vB4. Link to comment
WOEBOT Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I'm gonna go ahead and ask my vbulletin users that are upgrading... is the cms and blogs a priority? Also how much customization do you want on the theme, they've really changed the way css is handled (main css) on this new ver. Just the forum part would be fine. I would gladly pay for the upgrade Timan. Anything to shut up the grumbling twits on my forum Link to comment
EliasAlucard Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I have no problem even paying $20 for an upraded skin. Do not sell yourself short. You do some excellent work, and you should be compensated for it.By the way, I want to say I agree with this. I'd gladly pay 20 bucks for a vBulletin 4 compatible skin. Forum aspect is of course the most important part you should cover, but I wouldn't mind CMS and blog too, but that shouldn't be prioritised over the forum skin. I wish you could release the vBulletin 4 skin soon though. I mean, I understand this is a lot of work, but don't postpone it another year or so. Link to comment
EliasAlucard Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Timan, how long will it take for you to release the vB4 skin? Link to comment
Timan Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I can't give an ETA, it will be much longer than expected. What they've done with vb4 is a joke... you have to edit 50x more than you did with 3.x series, everything is in random places (stylevars etc). Link to comment

What they've done with vb4 is a joke... you have to edit 50x more than you did with 3.x series, everything is in random places (stylevars etc).Seems similar to what was done with IPB3 ;-) Link to comment
EliasAlucard Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Timan, do you estimate to be finished with the vBulletin 4 version before the end of this year? Because otherwise I'll upgrade to vBulletin 4 in the meantime. Link to comment
