Hi,


I have a fansite invision board forum that will be bringing in lots of traffic. I currently have all the images that I want to use on my forums but I can't seem to get color-coordinated well enough on my background of the main forums and the category background.

Would anyone be willing to work on skinning a forum for me in exchange for perhaps a text link back to your site on the bottom of the page? or maybe a banner?


If you can please pm or email me.:) I will give full details on color scheme that I'd like to have.:)

Hope to hear from ya.:)

meanwhile I'll see if i can read up on some tuts for invision board.*LOL*

Take Care,
Kelly

Hey there Kelly :) Welcome to Design Outpost. Do you have a link to the current site for us to look at?

Hi Palmer,

Nice to meet ya... I was referred here from some of my friends at IH.*LOL*

Anyways here's the link...
L.B.I. Forums (http://www.lawrencebrothersislands.com/forums/)

As you can see I am hopeless when it comes to color coordination.*LOL*
I'd like for the main background to be either the same color as the logo picture or a bit lighter.

Here's what my website that will be launching in June looks like... A friend made it for me and I was hoping to have similar colors to it but i think it'll look too dark on Invision.:) I tried to match it with the dark blue but the black text link didn't stand out at all.*haha*

Lawrence Brothers Islands (http://www.lawrencebrothersislands.com/index2.html)

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.:)
Take care,
Kelly

HI Palmer,


They're actors.:) Joey was on Blossom played Joey Russo, also on Gimme a break when he was younger he played Joey Donavan, Matt was Jack Hunter on Boy Meets World and also in the the recent movie Hot Chicks with Rob Schneider if anyone saw that.*LOL*, Andrew hasn't been in much but his recent acting job is in Oliver Beene, a new show on Fox and before he played on Brotherly Love... Not sure if you've heard of any of these boys.:)

I currently have 13 members on the forum but once site goes live, I'm hoping i'll get a lot more... On my Joe site that I have somewhere else, I probably had about 1,000 visitors a month. So with all 3 of these guys together on a website I see probably about 1,500- 2,000 visitors a month, I hope.*LOL*


If ya need more info, feel free to respond back.:)

Take Care,
Kelly

Ahhh, I remember Joey from Blossom. He was funny. He looks a bit different now :) I'll post some ideas later for you on the color scheme or maybe someone else can help.

Stay tuned...

Hi Palmer,

Thanks.:) I'll keep an eye out.:) Gotta go do some errands but will be back to check this thread.:)

And yeah tell me about it.*LOL* My roommate's mom loves watching American Dreams a show that he's currently on and she remembers him as Joey Russo on Blossom too and was surprised at how different he looks now then he did before. She didn't even recognize him on t.v.*LOL* She says he probably looks cuter now then he did before.*haha*


Talk to you soon,
Kelly

Hey Kelly, I think I may be able to help. I found a site that has a boat load of skins that are very easy to install. If you need help let me know. There has to be a color combo that you can live with on this site...
http://www.ibplanet.com/

They also come with custom buttons and are free. I'd be happy to help with the logo too. Just let me know if you want me to wrk on one for you.

I hope this was helpful,
Palmer

Matt was Jack  Hunter on Boy Meets World
I thought I'd seen him before... :lol:
The others - no idea who they are, and never heard of the shows they're in. :P

But good luck with the site. :)

Hi Palmer,

Went through the skins database.. All skins are nice but not what I'm looking for.*LOL* I guess I'm picky.*haha* Some of the skins I thought looked good ended up not having good ratings. Any other suggestions for other skinning sites? I am at ibplanet and love visiting as the graphics are very good.:) wish i was as artistic as they are.:)
I'd like to have my site look somewhat like that but simple.:)

Coxy,

Thanks for the wishes and nice to meet ya.:)

Take Care,
Kelly
