Joomla Templates

Hi jonathannew!

Well to be honest, the thing with the background wasn't my doin, its my friends who's done a lot of work together with me. If im not wrong he did some changes to the CSS but ill get in contact with him and ask him exactly how he did it.. ill get back to ya'll soon.

Regards

Hey. Thats very nice of you. Looking forwerd to hear from you. Best regards

Hi jonathannew,

which version of transparentBliss you use?
Lamercrew use the version 1.5. And when you make the fast changes, you have only one fixed image. As on www.lamercrew.se/
When you use TransparentBliss 1.5 also do this:
WARNING: The the changes are not small! Make a complete backup from your site before changing!!

Step 1
Add this lines in the template.css:

.custom_bg
{
height:100%;
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
z-index:-5;
}

Step 2
I have attached you a index.php file packed in a .zip. Please donwload your "original" file and AFTER download rename the file on your server (path: /templates/transparent_bliss_1.5/index.php) to for example: "index_org.php".
Then you Unpack my file, upload my modified index.php file in the transparent_bliss_1.5 folder on your server.

Step 3
Upload the image you want to use with the name image3.jpg at /templates/transparent_bliss_1.5/ background_images/ and overwrite the original picture.

Now, update your site with the F5 key. It must be work ;-)

Hey. Yes I am using 1.5 - thanks for the big help. Really apreciate it. I was hoping that this could be done with the funcion of more pictures.

Thanks.

By more pictures do you mean more than one image in the background?

No. I am running it local, so cant show you now. But i have set the template, so that the image background change, when loading a new article. It loads 1 of 6 pictures..

Wow sounds great! Would love to have a look when ready.

Hey. That worked, but ofcourse, now it can only load that one pictures, which is loaded from the php file. Would be great to make with work with more than just one image. See you. Jonathan

Lo again!

I talked to my co-creator and he's confirming everything mentioned in this thread so thats how we did it. And yes, we removed the option of having different backgrounds. We felt that one good looking is better that than severel disproportional.

I dunno if its possible to do but i rather change the background from time to time if i feel its necessary.

Regards

Thanks Nightportier for help ;-)

Of course we can make it possible with more than one image, but it is a lot of work.

The time is short, and at this time we help at first the premium members.

Awesome site Rikard! I play WoW as well (celebrated my 5th ingame anniversary in January! LOL I know our guild has a site but I really haven't paid much attention to it...I might offer to do one for out GM! Thanks for sharing your work!

Thanx for your input Tricia :)

I don't know how youre doin in your guild but when we hit lich king some of our ppl decided it took to much from them and it was to hard so they decided to quit.

Before we did our new site we had a hard time replacing ppl that left. Today its a lot easier. We refere them to our site, they look at it and see that we are a serious one that try hard even though were not the top guild on our server. It shows that we have a good community within the guild and on the server and thats what makes them want to join us.

So a nice site cant be anything but good for you, good luck and im glad we could provide inspiration for ya :)

Regards Rikard

nice and very atmospherical website!
