	You might want to check with Tigher, the project head/admin at http://neuron.mine.nu/neuron/ (which unfortunately just went down for 2 days for maintenance! -- I think Tigher is active on the SETI boards too, don't know about others) Most of the bugs I've seen here are the same -- not surprising if it's an out-of-the-box BOINC distribution. Tigher's already been in communication with the Boinc devs about them. I don't know that they're FIXED, mind, but they're ahead of you in running into them... Things I remember include the RSS feed not working, being unable to save a signature in message board preferences, several other php/html bugs. There were others but I can't get Project Neuron's site to remind myself, sorry! This bizarre right-justification of text is unique to Docking@Home though :)

	Hi Daniel, If there is anything specific you would like to see included in the graphics (ideal size requirements, preferred file types, color schemes, text placement, blank space for announcements, etc.), please let me know. The smaller one (for linking) is the same height as all the other project logos on the BOINC Stats site. Other than that, I wasn't really sure what you were looking for, but I do a lot of this type of stuff for fun, so it's not a big deal for me to come up with others or adjust the ones I already made. ~Atomic Hey atomic, Thanks for the variety.

	Okay, here are some more tweaks. I did 2 versions of each, one set the identical layout, the other set has the text centered and enlarged. Original layout in a "bluer" blue: Header http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v710/Atomic_Booty/dockingheaderbl2.jpg Logo Centered layout: Header http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v710/Atomic_Booty/dheadblcntr.png Logo

	Oops, I uploaded the wrong file for one of those! Here is the jpeg file for the centered header layout. I also removed the Boinc logo from it. It seemed too unbalanced, and this way the webmaster can put it (the Boinc logo) wherever they want and make it clickable. For the record, this set is my favorite of all the versions I have done, and I like Cori's submission very much too. I guess it will come down to whether you prefer simplicity or detail; but I think either choice would suit the project nicely. The finally final header in bluer blue

	hhmmm both are great. on miss atomic's logo I like where the protein is shifted all the way to the left, just my personal opinion. Also I was thinking of instead of deciding over one or the other, to combine them: for example I really liked the protein and ligand kind of things in the back groun from Atomic Booty and the blurness kind of effect on the logo from Cori. well these are my two cents and take this from a guy that is color blind and the colors that I can distinguish I cannot combine them, and my desing skills are at about -3.75

	Apologies for the long wait, folks. My very pregnant sister went into labor last Thursday and we have been out of state ever since (and me without my computer!). Here are the final designs for the header and logo, incorporating my graphic background with Cori's arial style font. I hope you are pleased with them ;) Here is the header And here is the logo: If you'd like an even smaller logo (or a longer header) I can do that pretty easily. Also, I left the BOINC logo off the header so you would have the freedom to place it wherever you wish; but if you would like it added or need a resized BOINC .gif, just ask. (I'm staying put for awhile I promise!) Cheers! ~Atomic

	Hi Andre, It's a girl! (8 lbs. 6oz.) Yes, it is possible to remove the outline from the text, but it gets quite washed out by the background: Like this If you are really dead set against the black outline, I can play with it some more and see if it looks any better beveled or something. The trouble is that there are both light and dark objects behind the text, so changing the text color doesn't really help. This was actually why I originally decided to use an outline in the first place, the separation keeps the text looking crisp regardless of what is behind it.

	Hi Everybody, Cori, Karina and I have been hard at work behind the scenes, collaborating to get a graphic that everyone (or most everyone ) can be happy with. I have made one more adjustment myself to the text based on your feedback, substituting a subtle "drop shadow" effect for the black outline. Header here And logo: As you can see, this gives the text the sort of 3D effect that Andre liked, while retaining a visual separation from the colorful background. I have also sent blank (textless) versions of my graphics to Cori to work her magic on. I think she is going to be busy for a couple days, so we ought to see something from her this weekend. I'm sure it will be worth the wait! Just wanted to keep you posted on where we were at on this. We are all anxious to get this little project complete and see it up on the D@H website.

	Hello everybody! After a busy work week I finally had time for the really important things to do... ;-D (And besides that night times are great for creativity...) I've put the text style with the "blue glow" from my logo on Atomic Booty's background. Also I changed the alignment of the text for the banner, so that you can see more of the beautiful proteins in the background. For the logo the text remained centered though as it has a smaller width. But look for yourself: link to header logo: Now, nice weekend to everybody and greetings to Atomic Booty and Katrina! :-)

To be honest it's not that difficult... ;-) What you can do is download a skin that's ready... that way you end up with a correct skin.xml and you also have the correct graphics (buttons and so on...) and sizes. How the skin works and placement of pictures is handled by the xml... rest is kinda like Lego... background comes first and on top of those the "graphic puzzel pieces". Just take a look at this one ... I would not suggest using the xml file of the skins I've maid, when you want to start building one, this xml is set for 2 languages... Just give it a try... i'm sure you will succeed... ;-) Edit: the Alfa Romeo did not work out... the photo on the net looked promising, but "in real life" it looked like it was parked in the jungle for a couple of months... and then monkeys decided to make it theire home. So today I've saved a lot of money... LOL ____________

If there's none on the server the default BOINC icon will appear instead as you can see in the screenshot. Maybe the file has to be renamed to "stat_icon.png" and it looks like this: This will also work for other skins.
