It's all for April Fools day except for Roleplay.

Thanks for clearing that up. I have a question though: is the Easter mafia gonna last until it ends or die with the rest of the April fools stuff?

[aero]

It will last until it ends.

[RudeGuy]

Okay, what THE hell is going on with the forums?! All of our ranks are weird dancing men, the layout is Easter themed, MFGG was slapped into the background, mafia is back up, forum games are happening, and there is a completely new forum: Roleplay! Like I know this is April fools but has anything like this been done before on these forums?!

"weird dancing men"? do not insult our lord and savior ignoritus like that.

Just an fyi, April Fools is officially over in all timezones. Hope you had fun messing around, but please no more joke topics/posts

So if you were around for April 1st you migth've seen that we started implementing new themes for the forum.

Some people have expressed their willfulness to help create more themes for the forums, so if you're one of those people, here's how you can help:

Download this file: archive.supermariobrosx.org/smbxstyle-12.28.16.zip
In that zip, you will find the graphics the standard forum theme consists of. To create a custom theme, edit those files and send us a zip with the new theme you created.
You will also find a colors.txt file. Edit that file too and change the color codes to correspond with your theme. Most of them are pretty self-explanatory. The secondary block colors concern the color a box becomes when hovering over it and the color a link or text in that block will turn into.
It's possible to use animated gifs for the icons, but it's not advised to change the dimensions of the icons.

We have already created all standard Mario themes, meaning SMB1, SMB2, SMB3 and SMW. Themes we do not need are the SMB3 Desert, SMB3 8-1 and SMB3 Ice themes, as those assets already exist on the site (World, GFX, Links) and can easily be implemented to make new standalone themes.

If you want to claim a theme that you want to make, do so in this thread.

And lastly: I said we already have all the major themes done. Then why aren't they selectable in board preferences? Because they're not implemented yet. Only the webmaster can do that, which is Joey/soon to be Kley. It will take a while for themes to be implemented and you won't make it go faster by asking us every few hours when your theme is gonna be available, so don't.

SMB2 Snow is MINE
Gonna use some CGFX (not changing the dimensions), if it's okay

[xDestroy]

SMB2 desert is MINE
Mario Kart is MINE

SMB2 desert is MINE
Mario Kart is MINE

Hmm. I wonder how Mario Kart's gonna be.
I think it'll be kinda weird.
And cool.
Good luck.

[WildWEEGEE]

This. Is. A. Great. Idea.


NSMB grass is mine

Edit: can I modify the dimensions of the pics?

[MegaCDFan235]

I am working on a Microsoft DOS theme for the site.
Here's what top.png looks like so far:

Is it possible to make animated icons like in the default smbx theme? All the images seem to not have frames.

THE COIN

[Valentine]

I mean the ones you download

[WildWEEGEE]

the coin is an animated file

[IAmPlayer]

I think i'll pick SMB Underground. If i can use some CGFX, then that's good, because i would want to make the background as atmospheric to a cave. I think it's not possible.
