I'm looking into creating a table wrapper graphic set similar to the one that is in Bookies Blam. I don't think doing a complete graphic set replacement would be practicle, because it would limit you to using just the Blam template itself (with the current use of table wrappers I don't think it's a good idea to limit yourself to one choice).

I need to know if anyone is still running the Blam set on a 6.1 Threads site (or even a Classic site so long as the graphics are the same). Please post the URL so I can check it out.

This wrapper will be different than the first one I released, and I'm going to choose a default dimention for the thickness of the graphics. I'll eventually develope several colors / styles of graphics based on the same physical dimentions so that once you install my template files you can change your graphics without doing any additional scripting or hacking. The most you'll have to change is the name of the graphic that you are using in your CSS. Unless JustDave jumps in here and tells me how to use a string variable within a CSS

I'll probably rework my own graphics first, and then create new graphics that are in the same style as the Blam set. The first template wrapper that I made was "quick and dirty", but the new table wrapper will be a little more complex. Bare with me cause I don't have much free time (I have a day job + my own web site to run + family )

I'll provide the png files that I create as well so you can customize my graphics for your site (provided you have MacroMedia Fireworks or some other application that can edit my files). If you want custom graphics please see the developer for hire section on this site (I'm not in it). I want to focus my attention on things that anyone could use, and I don't realy have the time to focus on specific things for specific sites.
