Viril

[[R] NuclearGeneral]

We are glad (and proud, and everything) to announce the release of the Viril IPB skin. This is a dark skin, perfect for gaming forums but can also be used for any kind of forum really since it ships with various backgrounds that completely change the look and feel of the skin. Ready for the features?

Background picker

The skin ships with a nice background picker and comes with 6 backgrounds by default - 3 "manly" backgrounds (moto, cars,...) and 3 "universal" backgrounds (color spectrums, fire,...).

Tabbed hooks

All hooks (recent topics, status updates, etc.) are now inside a nice fancy AJAX box with tabs. You've got to see this live. The whole "tabbed hooks" area can also be collapsed and expanded.

Last post preview

When you hover a forum block, you can see a preview of the latest post in that forum in a nice AJAX fade-in way. You've got to see this one live as well...

Avatars in forum view

We have gently replaced forum icons for topic starters' avatars.

Compatibility

Viril is compatible with the latest version of all IP.Services applications: Downloads, Blog, Gallery, Content, Chat and Nexus.

 

And more

Many more features are included in this skin, such as our smooth "Go to top" button, our login, skin chooser and active users lightbox, completely redesigned paginations, etc.

 

Please also note that the skin uses our brand new Framework that will be introduced and explained in details soon. You can also deactivate and customize the features (such as the background switcher) very easily. Tutorials on how to do that will be available this week.
