Im going to change the drag button. Im going to move it to the left side, and add a new button that toggles the panel scrolling on the srceen or not.

Yeah, I don't like the drag at all.  Maybe add hide/show also? |

the hide/show will be in the admin panel. Im suspecting whoever is going to use this will also have access to modifying skins.. and therefore admin panel.
I just changed the controls. you now click the "position" or "scroll" buttons to turn them on. position still isnt perfect, but it seems easier to use now.
scroll is also now working for up AND down. unfortunately, I had to disable the navbox. If I can find a way t let them both work I will change it.

I changed the scroll to a timedinterval instead of using the window.onscroll I was using for the navbox. you cant have them both in the onscroll (the last one overrides all others).
DO you think this is a postable version?

I am hung-over, time for hair of the dog!! Ive never heard that expression before, had to google it  . Worm, is this active on here, i tried to change something just to test it out and it didnt work. Also, why no logo image option? When you do release this, if you havent already, you're going to become a legend among skin makers, its a pain in the ass to open 2 sometimes 3 windows just to check if what you're doing looks good. Awesome work man. Edit: Im on the skin im working on if that makes a difference as to why it didnt work. |

If there are tings that are added via Style tags AFTER the default style tag from PB runs, this code wont affect it (yet). This code currently affects the FIRST style tag stuff.
so if things like background images are added via header instead of skin editor it wont be able to change them.
Logo image is going to be VERY difficult to achieve, mainly because the logo image is NEVER in the same place on every site. Side tables change its relative position in the body.. welcome table hacks.. border around forum.. there are so many variables to consider its going to take me a while to figure out a clean way of doing it.
what did you try to change that it didnt work? I just now tested everything in IE and FF and they all worked (except background image because its added via header).

I just tried again to change the color of the BG and it did not work. Is this because you are using a image instead of a color? If so disregard. What is empty? (background fixed-empty) I guess I should have asked more questions and play with this thing before saying post it. LOL. I got this one. Sorry man! Image BG did'nt work when I added this. img242.imageshack.us/img242/7002/backgroundsidewindervy5.jpgMaybe add a list of what it does and does'nt do so we can make or break it? ;D |

background color is added via headers on this site.

background image is added via headers as well.
I just had an idea though.. perhaps a break in the drop down list, and then what I call persistant styles. stuff that can be changed regardless of what headers have done.
the point of skinview is so you can see what changing the variables in the skin editor will do. if you add further stuff into the headers, it overrides the skin editor, and thus overrides the skinview panel.

Ok, So this is just a preview of what it can change? Cool. That override sounds good! (persistant styles) Maybe add a box or something with what changes were made for the noobs like me, sometimes I forget what hex colors I have used and it takes forever to find them again. And, just for US noobs have a reset button to revert back to the original skin. ;D This is probably a lot more than you asked for but, here it is.  |

I like the reset idea... but then you could always just refresh the page and it would revert anyways.
expand on this idea:
