Original 1.0 release 09 August 2008
This skin is intended to be used only with MyBB version 1.4.0 and Brandon's MyBB Multiforums Mod version 2.0.0. Do not attempt to install this skin without all of the necessary scripts with all identical version numbers, as it probably is not compatible.
Screenshot
The screenshot is 1235x2157 and in a high-quality .png format. It shows a screenshot of the form, an example of an error message, and the completed message.
Features
- Separate configuration file to make easy changes.
- - Supports both subdirectories and subdomains.
- - Loaded in a separate file, so it's easy to revert to the default and remove the skin.
- - Inline errors (errors are not shown by themselves, unformatted, on a separate page, as they were previously).
- - Looks just like MyBB!
- - Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional and Valid CSS level 2.
- - Also changed content of activation email message.
- - If you're using the Shorter URL's for Forums mod by cyber-fox, and you are using the subdirectory version, you can set it to reflect that.

License
- You may remove the MyBB copyright from the footer of the skin, since the MyBB copyright will still appear in the hosted forums.
- - You may not remove the powered-by message for Brandon's Multiforums Mod unless you have purchased a premium membership.
- - You may not remove the reformatted message crediting lupus6x9 unless you have purchased a premium membership, in which case you must include an HTML comment (<!-- Skin by lupus6x9 - [www.lupus6x9.co.cc] -->).
Credits
- MyBB Group for the images, (most of the) CSS, and the layout.
- - Brandon for the MyBB Multiforums Mod.
- - lupus6x9 for combining the two!

Please reply to this thread or send me a private message on this forum. Please do not send me a private message unless you explicitly think that the problem will not be reproduced. The advantage of posting a reply is so that another user with a similar problem doesn't have to ask the same question, since he/she can read the conversation and resolution of any problems you may have had.
Planned Releases
I plan to release a version 2.0 for this skin, which may or may not include:
- AJAX form checking.
- - Language support.
- - No Continue button page.
- - Option in config.php to remove copyrights (if you are a premium member).
Thank you!
