Note: Live previews may not always work on test forum (since I am testing always) however I will try my best to keep my themes on SI, but be wary of differences since SI has its own codes that I've adjusted. The best way to get a live preview is to try it out yourself!

NOTES:
This theme is pretty out-of-the-box, however I made it quite easy (I hope, for the most part) to customize some of the colors and the main image. As always, there might be some tweaking to the code to make your customization work.... just ask politely and I will help you out.
THE IMAGE:
Currently, the image is just your banner image, which can be uploaded/edited through the Visual Editor. For best results, I would use an image that is similar in style/size as this one. Something minimal, dark, non-distracting, and positioned to the right. An image with a distinct background color is preferred as well, however you can always tweak the code to make any image work.
THE COLORS:
To change the main/overall colors (the dark gray and the medium gray), I've created two variables in the Stylesheet called @global_color and @category_color. Global_color is the dark gray, for links, backgrounds, and anything else. Category color is the background of the default categories (not the first, as it has the image as a background), and is best to be the background color of your banner image.

Is there a way to center the info center? I'm not sure where to find the code for the hover info center you're using

Eyy Smangii, I'm using it here and I was wondering how to get the descriptions to be an image and wehn hovered over, transitions to the current white bg black words with the fade?
I'm sure there's a code for it, or somewhere messing with the template but I am a cpding noob (as in I understand what they mean, but not how to actually code), ever so grateful if you could help!

Hey Smangii! I'm currently using this theme and was wondering how to make the background image, which I will be changing to use my own, reach down the entire forum as a scroll attachment, instead of remaining fixed and cutting off after the first category. Thank you! (:
First you'll have to remove the background color of the categories, which is this CSS, just add it to the very end of the stylesheet so it overrides the previous color.
and
and to remove the image from the first category:
Then you'll want to add your background image to the wrapper div:
I think that should be everything.... let me know if any of that works! Remember to add all of it AFTER all the theme's CSS, so at the very end of the stylesheet.

.catimg {
background-color: transparent;
}and
.boards .content .catimg:before {
background-color: transparent;
}and to remove the image from the first category:
.category-0 .catimg:before {
background-image: none;
}Then you'll want to add your background image to the wrapper div:
#wrapper {
background-image: url('here.png');
}I think that should be everything.... let me know if any of that works! Remember to add all of it AFTER all the theme's CSS, so at the very end of the stylesheet.

This theme is beautiful but may i suggest you include a "how to remove the image" tutorial on the page or somewhere you dont have to register for it? i figured it out but not everyone dares touch the html coding. please make it easier. cuz i tried doing it through the visual editor or where you can change the images. it did not work. removing the url in the html did though.
Hmmm last I remember I made it specifically so that the visual editor was the place to edit that, if that isn't working out as it should then I can take a look and see if I did something wrong. (I probably did).

its entirely possible i messed up as well @my previous post
gah help, okay, i finally have almost everything in this exactly as i want it, but the background color and the board colors (the grey background and the text+colors in the boards/categories)), i cant figure out where to change this. i feel as if ive tried everything
ive tried editing different things in the visual editor and the color and theme creator, just to see what would happen but still, no luck. Please let me know where to change this D: very specifically. if you dont mind.

Not a problem...I made this kind of wacky... totally my fault.
Two spots to edit the background color of the categories:
First find this class and edit the property background-color, it will be set to this number:
Then do the same for this class & its background-color property:
This will all be in the stylesheet/css.

Thank you c: I figured it out.
Can i remove the shadow on the board titles? if so how, i went in to where you change the color of it and tried to change the weight but it doesnt affect it (via visual editor) and id like to change the color of the boxes the board titles are in. i cant seem to find where to do that. i changed the hover color but i cant find the constant color option
Also the grey buttons on the left. where do i change that? i tried changing buttons already but it doesnt seem to affect them
I was also wondering if theres a way to remove the description part of the boards and move another board into that location instead so theyre side by side? OR just make it reach all the way over. cause ive noticed, if i only have 1 board in a category itll stretch all the way over and get rid of the description which is nice. the descriptions are pretty useless to me tbh. i understand its free and this is just help so i guess this is custom coding so you dont have to do it if its a giant hassle or anything c: OH and i noticed that the shoutbox on this forum is draggable, is that possible to do to the undercover theme as well? the shoutboxes seem to work similarly on the 2 themes.
I love this theme, its the only one i REALLY like from the theme library but its kinda frustrating to personalize (could just be i dont have a ton of html experience and im sorry i keep bugging you but x.x)
