I just recently developed an interest in ZetaBoards and designing forum skins. I'm still starting out though, so I'm bound to have a few questions before I proceed. I don't know CSS and I have intermediate knowledge of Photoshop. How should I go about designing and then creating the theme to work with ZetaBoards? I figured by creating a "skin print" and then slicing the images. Should I go to great lengths to learn CSS? It's obvious knowing CSS would help a great deal, but how much knowledge is needed when you're only interesting in creating ZetaBoard themes? Thanks for any opinions regarding my questions.

CSS is CSS, so learning it would allow you to apply it to any site which uses a style sheet. It's a useful language to know if you're interested in the area of web design. I wrote this around a year ago: click me For users who want to be able to understand how to get a particular effect, or to find out what a particular line does. If you need any assistance with CSS I and others on this board are more than happy to help walk you through it so you understand it a little better ![]() Also: Be aware that what you think looks good on a 'print' may not be coded easily, so don't do nuts. You'll also get a cookie if you do code up a design you create, people rarely do these days

Thanks for the reply, Nicola. I'll start reading your documentation immediately. I also have the CSS Mastery book by Andy Budd. Heard it was a great book. Hate to have to read a book on a monitor though, I just gotta have a physical book. Though I suppose it's better in several ways. |
