WoooHoooo...Finally did it.

Made my first phpnuke theme with the guidance of a few friends. I should have it on my site set as the default theme. Any comments and suggestions are very welcome. Be honest, I am old enough to take friendly critisism... lol

Thanks some1

and actually its not too difficult making a basic theme like that one. Although I can see where some may take a long time to design just with the main page graphics alone. I even was shocked I didnt run into more troubles than I did. Most were my fault anyways due to trying to rush things.

when I first started that theme I didnt even know how to slice an image. Now I can do it with ease. Just have to be patient.

Good job Wolfie

Wtg Matt! Congrats on your first theme!

Nice job wolf, being one that has lived his life through HD handlebars I can appreciate the concept.

I like it! Very nice and I bet you learned tons doing it!!

I really like the chain links in both bottom edges - could you do that on the top too? And I was just wondering if the biker pic you have on the top could be then shifted over a little (because of chain link) and made wider (like a fade in to mountains/road/bikers)? Am I being too forward with this thought? If I am feel free to smack me one.

ty everybody

Yeah I learned a bit doing the theme. Wanted to make it somewhat simple for the first one. And yes there WILL be a 2nd version of the biker one with alot more graphics detail. If I learn flash I might even make the link buttons include a short sound of a bike starting up. My ideas are far greater than my skill level is at the moment, yet I am hoping to change that soon.

Already working on the second theme. Not a biker theme, yet it will include those chains seen on the first one. They will be used in the header and footer to give the illusion of holding up certain things. And by the way....when I had the idea of the chains. I couldnt find a decent tut anywhere. Finally I gave up searching for a decent tut and gave it a shot. I spent 2 hours searching thru tut pages, and a whole 15 minutes making the chain without a tut.... Guess I knew more than I thought I did...lmao. I may make a tut about those to help others know how they were made.

Glad you all like it even though it is simple compared to most.

P.S. Hey Kelly...I found those menu images..had them all along. They are included in a certain font (wingdings)..
