@Laurence
I love you!!

Plus I had the problem uploading it because my site is hosted “within” another site so I needed to change to

echo ‘’;
echo ‘’;
?>

This is pretty sharp. How do all the rounded boxes hold up on the crappy IE?

I’ve been using Thesis for a long time. Love it, but need to spruce it up a lot.

This theme doesn’t validate, that’s the gold behind Thesis… Validation

Nevermind, found the problem. In the css the path for the background jpg wasn’t for the local .jpg file.

Now moving on to try and figure out what the image at the top doesn’t load.

Thanks for the free skin Ben. I’m doing something wrong, and I hope you can tell me what it is. I am trying to change the background, so after saving a back up of the background image, I opened it, changed the colors, saved it and uploaded it to the custom/images folder where the backed up orignal was.

Nothing changed. Hell I couldn’t even get anything to change when I changed the image link in the css. I thought it must be that I have this cached, but cleared my cache, and then tried two different browsers…still nothing.

So what do I do to modify the background jpg?

Laurence, that’s a very good point. All my skins assume you name your folder thesis, not thesis_16, thesis_17 etc. Good catch!

RE: The image not showing up in the features post:
I am using Thesis 1.7 and I think this might happen on 1.6 too?…….

in customfunctions.php I noticed the line:
echo ‘/wp-content/themes/thesis/lib/scripts

when I changed “/thesis/” too “/thesis_17/” the featured image worked.

Sara, the skin doesn’t uses Thesis’ native settings importer. You need to install the Import/Export plugin as the directions state.

I admit I am pretty new at this…but when I upload the file to site options I get this:

Whoops! The file you attempted to upload is not a valid Site Options file. Please try uploading the file again, or else download a new, valid Site Options file.

This is the file I am using and I am using thesis 1.7.
affiliateskin-thesis-options.dat

Any thoughts or assistance will likely save me hours and hours of going in circles!

Thank you for offering some free skins.
