General info worth reading:

There's a few important things to note about this template, it is i believe, completely table free. However This does not mean it was made with things like accessability or web standards particulary in mind. Though with a bit of luck it may well be a tad more accessable though i have my doubts about that. So why did i make it table-less? I wish i knew because it could have been made in half the time otherwise. All the tpl fles needed the html completely rewritten. Though actualy if it were not for Internet Explorer it could have been made really quite rapidly. Which as it happens is an important point, it's only been tested in the latest versions of IE Opera and Geko (mozilla etc)engined browsers. It could prove very buggy outwith those. In fact despite making numerous comprimises and changes to my origional intentions just to make it more IE friendly it still looks better in Opera, Mozilla, Firebird etc. than it does in IE. This is particulary noticable in places like the user profile and a few other places. Still it is servacable in IE but the differances may put people off. Indeed maybe it's not cut out for a default skin for anyone. It could certainly do with more work but i'm sick of doing work on it so.. but any major bugs give me a shout.

There's no restrictions on use or editing all i'd ask is that the link and referance to my site in the footer remains, cheers!

I'm assuming you know how to install a skin ;)

Making your own header:

Included in the chairs.zip is a folder "readme and logoPSD ", its self inside the main chairs folder. Evidently you found it or you couldn't be reading this. :-D

So along side this readme file you should have found a zipped PSD of the logo to make your own with. If you don't have Photoshop get in touch and i can make you blank image or fireworks file.

Thanks:

No thanks to Internet Explorer you huge pain in the arse but much doffing of caps to Mozilla Firefox. Oh and of course thanks to phpbb!
