New CUSTOM theme @ University Forums!

[Deleted member 5665]

I'm really getting sick of everyone commenting on the price. Was it YOUR money? NO. It was MY money, I'm an adult, I can decide what I do and do not want to spent MY money on. Please, stop commenting on the price. $400 is actually CHEAP for Xenforo custom theme, but I wouldn't expect people here to have done any research into that matter.

They are only giving you their opinion on the price. They are not even saying you should not have and it isn't your choice. We all know it isn't our money it is yours. But the fact remains you could have got a way better custom Xenforo design at a cheaper price honestly.. I am pretty sure ShadyX could have gladly made you one alot better than that one and cheaper than the price you paid for it. 😛

Also just some friendly advice.. If you don't like peoples opinions then just ignore them..

Geoffrey, not to be more of an ass, but $400 is a large price to pay when most of us pay under $50 for themes. With that being said you should have known everyone was going to get choked on the price, Next time just do not disclose it.

My Opinion, Very nice theme and very nice forum idea, keep up the work and like I said in the other thread you will have a good business.

 

[Geoffrey]

You guys should just drop it, the price is really none of your business. I was ASKED about the price, I had no other intention of disclosing it.

Let's move on, okay?

If the price isn't our business then why did you tell us.. :lol: You should done what Deathstarr suggested.

Next time just do not disclose it.

 

[Geoffrey]

I told you in my post, because I was ASKED. I'm not going to be rude and tell him no, you can't know. And he acted like he was interested in ordering a theme too, so I didn't want dojo to lose business.

Now how about you leave me alone about the price, okay? It's done, it's over with and there's nothing more for you to say about it. Bye.

Ok Lets change the subject
It is up to Geoffrey how much he wants to spend
He looking for comment on the theme not how much it costs

I personally think the theme is amazing and beautiful. So what if you spent $400 on it.

Disclosing the price might not have been the best idea, but as you said you originally did not intend on doing so.
It's all relative to how much you have to spend (your budget) and your plans for the site.
Seeing as you have plans for the site to go far, I think securing a custom theme is a great thing to put money into.

Thoughts of what can change:
-Highest posting members...I personally would get rid of that.
-Same with newest members
-Change 'Staff Online Now' to something like Need help? Ask... (then list online staff members)
-Move the share this (social media buttons) up the page a bit
-Possibly get rid of the border around the shout box

The theme looks great! Great job to dojo for creating a very nice theme 🙂

 

[Geoffrey]

-Change 'Staff Online Now' to something like Need help? Ask... (then list online staff members)

I love that idea! And I think I know how to do it now.

 

[Ghost]

You may be able to set up an IF statement that does the following...
If there are no online staff it provides a link to your suggestions/feedback/etc section!

 

[Geoffrey]

I'm almost always online, but I can probably just add text and a link below our names regardless of if we're online or not in the templates.

BTW, the heading has already been changed.

Edit - Border on shoutbox removed as well.

Probably won't remove those sidebar blocks you mentioned, unless I find something better to replace it with.

I am glad my suggestions helped and sorry that my directory submissions weren't fully complete. 🙂

Take a chill pill, yo.

Pretty cool design, anyway!
