It has been coded with the retina display in mind, and uses css3 effects & icon fonts to produce nice effects without compromising loading speed or bandwidth. The skin comes with 5 backgrounds, which are pulled at random on each page load. The board index, forum index and topic view have been modified to fit neatly within the dimension of tablets in portrait view.
  • Compatible with: The latest versions of IP Board 3.x, Gallery, Blog, Downloads, Chat, IP.Content and Nexus
  • Additional info: The skin is made specifically for tablet devices such as the iPad, and should not be used as a desktop skin for your forum. After purchasing this skin, you will be able to download it immediately from your Client Area.

Skin features


"Settings" Template FileThis skin includes a settings file allowing you to easily enable or disable features within the skin. This makes modifications and upgrades very simple since no code changes are required.


Random headersThe banner randomly selects a banner from your collection on each page load, allowing for a new visual appearance each time the page is refreshed.


Forum iconsThe forum icons have been created entirely by css3, and inherit the header image as their background.


Modified topic viewThe topic page has been modified to save vertical space and to focus your users attention on the content.


"More" MenuIf there is not enough available space in the navigation bar, extra links are automatically added to a "More" menu.


Retina-compatible iconsSome icons used throughout the skin are created using a font, resulting in a crisp design on high resolution screens.


Overlay scrolling effectWhen scrolling, the content flows over the banner area. A very unique effect!


Guest messageA customizable message is shown to guests, prompting them to either register or login to your forum.


Social linksSocial links can be enabled/disabled and customized to your own URL using the Settings file. The icons are created using a font, resulting in fast loading speeds and crisp viewing on the retina display.


HTML text as logoChanging the logo text is extremely easy by modifying the HTML text. If required, the text can be replaced by an image instead.


Auto Detect iPadsAutomatically swap your visitors to this skin whenever they browse your site using an iPad (or any other tablet if supported by IPB's user agents feature).
