Got a Tutorial? - Plz post here!

First off this isn't the place to advertise. Secondly I guess you advertised at a bad time. Your site is down. Thirdly skins are easy to make. Just download the theme from your server and edit every single html file.

 

This is obvious to a lot of people, but for those that it isn't, here's a really easy way to install themes:

1) Upload your theme to a directory you can FTP into. For example, if your theme was called &MyTheme& the directory could be /home/yoursite/MyTheme. I don't recommend uploading to a directory you can HTTP to...

2) Login as a root or superuser (if you can't, ask your host to).

3) Tell them to run the following command:
ln -s /home/yoursite/MyTheme /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/

Done!

Now you'll be able to edit your theme directly at /home/yoursite/MyTheme and have them take effect in the frontend directory. Hope that helps.

 

ok i did the -s command, but the skin is not showing up.

is this something that i would need to wait for or is it instant?

 

Hey intelliweb ... some of those images on your site sure do look familiar :-(

 

All I just said a few images on your site look familiar. That's all I said. Instead of me contacting you I am sure anyone that may have a problem with your site would do that instead. I was reasonably sure everything was on the up and up on your end..but your reply looks a little defensive. As for you asking me to email you in the future ..well let's just say I could be doing you a favor if someone had borrowed your images. That's what I originally thought You seem to suspect the other way around judging by your reply to my post. However no one has ever accused me of being &professional& ..so you are right in line there. Your link to your site sparked me to take a look ..that's all. I hope you catch the guy. Good luck!

 

I see what you mean by bringing this up in a forum might make it seem like it could do damage to your image. Sorry for that. But having graphics on one hosting company's site that also apear on another well known hosting company's web site can also be a way to wreck your image. I am sure I am not the first to notice it. I will just drop it .. I just couldn't help it when I saw you site. It jumped right out at me. It is also important for me to make it clear that this could easily be a case of the same &purchased& image being used by more than one webmaster. I am not claiming anyone **took** anything. But it could look that way to visitors of both sites. That's why I build all my images from scratch ..as bad as they are they are mine.
