Realize for MyBB

Published by Brendan in mybb

Realize screenshotThis is Realize, and its my latest free MyBB theme. Its clean and sophisticated. Realize uses special Webkit and Mozilla CSS to draw the rounded corners and drop shadows. They’ll show up in Safari, Chrome and Firefox, but degrade nicely in IE.

You can change the header image to whatever you like, or even make it rotate amongst a few different pictures. Just crop your picture to 940px / 150px and replace /images/realize/banners/banner.jpg. If you want to randomize the header, you’ll need to put a couple pictures in the banners folder and make a small CSS change. Find the class “.middle_panel” (using the theme editor in your admin panel) and change the background URL to “/images/realize/banners/random.php”. Do not make any other changes on the line, and hit save at the bottom of the page.

This theme also handles variable widths well. Just change the width of #container in your MyBB admin panel and your set. You may want to adjust the banner widths too, or simply remove the image and use a solid background colour.

    Hey, a very nice theme and I think I am going to use it, heavily changed in things of colour tho.

    Just a small mistake:
    header_welcome_block_member

    “settings['bburl']}”>{$mybb->settings['bbname']}”
    The Tag should be outside of the link, if necessary.

    Oops.. Thanks that’ll be fixed in the next release.

    The normal threads are not separated.. But it is a very nice theme :)

    Robin, I’m not sure what you mean about the threads being separated. Could you explain a little more?

    You really are a great MyBB theme designer, wow. Thank you so much for this great piece of work.

    Hi – what a great theme, this and aardvark are definitely my favourites for myBB boards. However, I downloaded this theme today and I am still having some problems with the buttons grouping in the post area (as mentioned on myBBnet and here). I downloaded 1.49a – it looks great in IE but not so great in firefox. Will you update again, or can you advise a fix? I saw you used the clear:both css class in the stylesheet, but it does not appear to have taken…

    Oh no really? I’m making an update for 1.4.10 this weekend so hopefully this can be sorted out by then.

    I have tested on Firefox 2-3, but unfortunately I only have a Mac so I can’t test Windows+Firefox issues. Could you take a screenshot and post it here or email me (webmaster at quacktacular.net)?

    Thanks. =)
