Nice work.
Once screen size goes below 800 the Post content drops below the left sidebar.

1. Resizing the window to be as small a width as possible crunches menu text together, thus dis-positioning it.

2. Searching for a keyword that doesn't exist, the background doesn't span the whole page. Also happens on page with little content, i.e. looks like your blog posts are setting the width.

3. Page height is REALLY large. Is this an IE7 problem?

4. Going to the next month breaks the calendar.

4. http://www.cssdizayn.com/cs1/blog1.php/2008/08/15/welcome-to-b2evolution - Footer is huge and "Categories: Welcome" text floats too far left.

5. Homepage showing posts, bullets hide behind left sidebar

6. http://www.cssdizayn.com/cs1/blog2.php/2008/08/19/title#comments - categories moved again.

Thats about all I can find

Res: 1440x900

Browser: IE7

OS: Vista Business

All issues pretty much consistent across each blog.

A very nice design and layout though, love it.

Have fun fixing!

fixed. please retry the search, it rarely crushes -possibly in single mode- but that's not skin related, it's a core bug afaik..

fixed. couldnt exactly get what you mean but i presume it's fixed as i ve run many tests and nothing seemed extraordinary with the height to me.. could you please have a second look and provide a screenshot if you think the issue persists ?

fixed. Nicely spotted there (; however that's also fixed

fixed. i presume saying "footer is huge" you meant the padding at the very bottom of the footer which is about 200px? i ve done that one on purpose to make it look like deviantart footer, i ve decreased the 200 though, the categories are fixed as well.

b2eviant skin 0.1
Skin features
1. Fully fluid design, resolutions-wide.
2. Cross browser css, fixed all known bugs without even using a bit of script.(there may be a few bugs left out there somehow of as always, report them at the b2evolution forums if you find any)
3. Xhtml valid of course.
4. Custom icons.
5. Seperate modes for single, posts, and page display.

Notes: This is the initial release for the skin, tried to stick with the original design not to lose the DA feeling however there may be still room for improvement, so, all kind of feedback is appreciated, hope you like it

Hi.

Guess I maybe a bit late here... lol.

Great skin!!

Can you tell me how to remove the search box in the header?
When I change the name of the blog it is hidden by the search box.

Sorry for such a daft question.... newb !!

The original code for the search box :

.search_box {
width: 199px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 7px;
clear: both;
left: 170px;
border: none;}

to remove (hide it) simply add:

display: none; so that it would look like this:

.search_box {
width: 199px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 7px;
clear: both;
left: 170px;/* make this 270px for example, to move it further to right*/
border: none;
display:none;}

to move it play with the left: and bottom: values.. decrease/increase them.
