More of a suggestion than a question...

I really think that NBS needs to allow for previews of all their skins. I'm really interested in purchasing the FireFiber skin for IPB 2.x, but one of the things that's keeping me from doing it is seeing what it looks like in a live environment. Sure, I know FireFiber is simple a darker version of NightFiber, but I still need to see if the image set is any different, if the colors will work with my board, etc.

If NBS won't allow for all their skins to be previewed on their board, can they at least provide a link to a board that is running the said skin?

I do agree that a test site would be of use, but with the way the forums runs, we would need a license for each install of a demo forum, which can add up to high costs. It it something we are looking at for our next update to site, but is a good view, and i do agree with you.
Thanks for your feedback thou.

No, I mean, can't you add the skins to the "Quick Style Chooser?"

I'll add it to my forum and post a link.

We dont tend to add styles to this forum, as its set as a default company look, there are other reasons why also, like the file size it makes to the sql database, thou we use a dedicated server it more stress on each one, and we like to try to keep things as clean as possible. Adding it to this site would be work on every style to make it compatable with all our custom mods/hack we use, alot may not show to users, but within admin systems there is alot of hidden features that make our jobs easier.

Ya, our server is down now. I have no access to reboot it because it's my partner's server. :(

Ok, It should work in a few hours. The datacenter unplugged it due to some billing issue. It will be back very soon.
