    Hello, members of Pokemon Online! I'm here to show you guys my Legend of Zelda theme that I've been furiously working hard on fixing and updating (updating yes, the original was just so horrid I was scared to post it here).

    Onto the Screen Shots of the theme! I do hope you guys enjoy the theme!

    It took me a while to update the original theme of it. I used the basis of the Victorian theme (I absolutely LOVED it). So I'd love to thank the creator of it (Green-Eyed Russian, right?), as well as the creator of the Solar Eclipse theme (as I borrowed your buttons).
    I'd like to thank my friend Hinamori Amu for helping me with the Player Icons, as well as help flip the background image.

    So yeah. That's my theme! Here's the download link if you wish to download and use it (which I hope you all do).

    I am guessing this is a first try, and it is not too shabby for that! However...

    • I don't think the green and purple theme is very cohesive and representative of the series, I would have liked to see green and gold/yellow used, but I am picky.
    • I would go for a smaller more pattern-based image on your teambuilder as you all but lose the triforce behind, which is the underpinning of your purple theme, so that might be an aspect to look at.
    • Also look at your tab colour on the main chat, it may be hard to see some channel titles on it due to the black used.
    • The blue brown gold colour scheme of the challenge window does not blend in again here, and I would look at finding a picture or pattern (I usually use a swatch from my teambuilder pattern) you can use for your challenge window, as you can hardly see the triforce here.

    Apart from those issues, the rest is quite slick for a first effort, so well done!

    You're more than welcomed to use my battle buttons or any other aspect of any of my themes.

    Now, I'm loving the trainer info but there's too much green in my opinion. Also, you can't see the team options icons (Load Team, Save Team, Import Team, Change Team Folder, Remove Team, & Add Team) next to the Team name & Team tier.

    Overall, I'm glad to see that you created your own theme as it's not bad for your 1st try.

    Thank you both for your critic! I really appreciate it.
    Regarding the Green+Purple colour scheme, I had a hard time trying to get my origin of Green and Gold/Yellow to work, and the purple (in my eyes) worked well. With the pattern choice, I tried finding something that would work, but nothing I found seemed to fit, well, my style of imaging. As for the tab colour, it seemed well in my eyes, but I really should have taken into account on how others might view it, so I appreciate the concern with it! With the Trainer Information picture, I don't know why I didn't change it to something else. I was considering it, but I just neglected to go find a different image for it.

    Bamarah, I WILL get to remembering your name when I reference things you've done. I've respect for you and your theme and it's not showing respect if I don't properly name you xD I did notice the problem with the team option icons, but I couldn't figure out what happened with them, so I couldn't figure out how to fix them. Any form of help would be GREATLY appreciated, and would be acted upon immediately. As for the green, I went with it as the "main" colour because of how Link's Green tunic is so iconic (and the main chat's image was majorly green). After a while though it does get taxing on the eyes, I believe.

    So like I said, I greatly appreciate both of your compliments and critics! I do have a question though; does anyone happen to know how to change the font colour for the main chat? If someone could tell me how to do that in the CSS (where it's at and in which CSS), I'd be sure to thank you immensely for it!

    Thank you for your acknowledgment Shadow Roxas but as for your questions...

    The Team Builder Icons

    [​IMG]


    I fixed them by changing the path of the icons, example: (Themes/Zelda/Teambuilder/trainer/CfH.png)

    So please do the same as everybody that's downloading your theme needs this fix in order to see the icons themselves.

    As for the Main Chat text, it's black by default (Server script wise) so you can't change it. But you can change the color of the text that goes into the Main Chat

    Example:

    If you have any other questions feel free to ask here, via server or forum PM & I'll try to reply quickly.

    Thank you so much! I guess I must not have moved the image files over to where they were supposed to be!
    I also thank you on the main chat text. I've been working on a Kingdom Hearts theme and the image I had was beautiful but I had to change the color, and I just decided it'd be easier to find a different image. But thanks! I'll know if I need to do that on any other theme!
    I'll be sure to ask you for help when/if I need it! I'll update the Zelda theme over the weekend, as I should have everything moved over to my original laptop!
