McGani's Blackety Black Black Theme!

[McGani]

Am I doing this right? I used my forum as the preview forum. xD
And I'm not sure if there's anything that will need to be directly modified to fit your forum. D:

Credit for the neat-o patterns goes to subtlepatterns.com, design/arrangement to me McGani, and of course the few CSS mods included (like border around forum) are credited to PBS royalty.

I ask that anyone who uses the theme to give the appropriate credits, of course. <333 Be sure to link my name to my Potterholics forum (or my profile here at PBS), and you may also include the credits to subtlepatterns.com, though they don't require it for non-commercial use. 

If I did this right, perhaps I'll make my other themes available too!

If you notice anything off about the skin (I made it rather quickly), like a color being off somewhere, let me know! Especially if you don't know how to fix it--I'll help ya out!

What the main page looks like



What the mini-profile/quotes/posts sections look like.
The darker pattern is also the board/thread highlighter.

Oh my... I love this, it's so very good! I am planning on using it for a new site, but I don't have the link yet, but I'll link you as soon as I have created it.

[McGani]

Aw, thanks! I'm glad you like it

You'll have to let me know if it works okay!! I haven't tried *sharing* themes yet :3

[Skittles]

Yes it works just fine! If you wish to see it, it is here: betweenshadowshp.proboards.com/

[McGani]

Awesome!! I'm excited it works! <3

McGani,

The theme looks wonderful. With your permission, I would like to use it on our new forum. With that being said, I am very new to proboards and I am having trouble uploading the theme. I down loaded from your link, but I am having trouble opening it up and populating it to my forum. I am still currently searching everywhere to find a step by step for doing this. Any assistance or point in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

[McGani]

You may use the theme on your forum, certainly! Just as long as you give credit!

Go to Admin>Themes>Theme Manager, and in the top there will be a button "Create New/Import Theme". Choose "Import existing theme", and find the .pbt file wherever you saved it. That should do the trick!

[hs4bk]

Thank you. I may have found the problem. I think I my forum was v4 and I was not seeing the import theme button. I am in the queue to upgrade to v5. Hopefully it will be there then. Thank you for the quick response.

If and when I get it switched I will give the proper credit and try to post it here.

[McGani]

Cool, thanks! Yeah, it's only compatible with V5

Good luck, I hope you love it! :3

Love the theme, how do i adjust the header?

EDIT: Found it

[McGani]

Glad you like it! And glad you got it figured out! Hehe.

[Jon]

Not quite finished setting it up but here is what it looks like on my site - geekcentre.proboards.com

[McGani]

Lookin' good! Awesome job!

[absintheraven]

This is an absolutely wonderful theme and I think I'll use this as a temporary v5 theme for my roleplay forum. I ask, though...is it possible to change the fonts? My forum's theme is a little darker and a different font would certainly be more appropriate, if at all possible.

[McGani]

Yeah, that's easy! I just put some CSS for Google web fonts in there. If you want to use defaults, just go through and replace "Amatic SC" and "PT Sans" with the name of the new font. They are the names of the decorative header and body copy fonts, respectively.
