Question about Forum Themes

[Kaelon]

Hi there, Everyone,

Longtime fan/lurker of the HiveWorkshop here. I had a question regarding the Forum Theme (for "Wc3sear.ch" and "Night Elf"). How was it made? I remember seeing a series of Wc3-inspired themes on another site which included graphically-rich border images (like this Night Elf theme) and had variations for Orcs, Undead, etc. Are there other themes as graphically intense as this one?

I'm a bit of a vBulletin styling expert, so if I knew where to obtain the source images, or how to extract them (I did a quick MPQ check, and they don't seem to be in the standard UI->Races sections from what I can tell), I would be delighted to produce high quality themes for the community to enjoy. Any advice, information, guidance, or feedback you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again!

This theme originally existed on wc3sear.ch (phpBB) and was converted to a vBulletin style. I am not sure of its origins, but some of the long-time wc3sear.ch members here might know.

Didn't Archian make this?

I know the Night Elf one, not Wc3Sear, style's images came from this site. In order to go through the different race's graphics, you just need to click the links on this page.

BTW, could anyone provide a hive theme template, or make a contest for a new one? that would rock.

This has been brought up over and over, but Archian seems to be holding on to the templates.

Well, i'm not sure how many people here on the Hive know how to create custom vb templates, so that would be questionable.

You could always just replace every image you see. I could put it into a greasemonkey script if you'd like. They're simple to set up.
