Customize name
« on: January 10, 2011, 03:24:31 »
I have the plus version up and running, would like to use a different name in the banner, can it be changed? Also, is there a user manual anywhere to answer questions like how to change skin, etc. Thanks.

The skin is composed of handful of images that you can find in the images folder in your installation.
If you look in your downloaded package you can see that there is a folder called "skins". To change the skin you simply replace the images-folder on your webserver with the images-folder form the skin you like to use.

If you want to make your own skin you can just open the images in the images folder in your favorite image editor and do the changes you like. The only requirement is that you don't change the image size.

The banner can be changed in the ChatRoom_banner.jpg file.

"replace the content of the chosen skin folder with the current 'images' folder on your server" is what the readme file in the "skins" folder says. I think it should be just the opposite, move the contents of the desired "skin" file into the "images" file. I did that and it seemed to work. Also got the banner changed. Thanks, Michael
