I've seen the transparent scroll bar done in a lot of profiles, I was curious how it was done? I don't want a hideous scroll bar messing up the look of the pet profile I made and I'm at a loss.
Also, how can I made my pet's background transparent? I've been trying to change background colors in the temp profiles (and heck, it'd be nice to stray away from the WHITE column backgrounds) and they pet always has a white BG.
Are you talking like a semi-transparent scrollbar or one that is hidden?
The pet images onsite have a white background. Depending on the pet you may be able to find a transparent version, if not you could probably ask someone (or maybe the artist) to remove the background.
- I suppose that's what I'm talking about... last I checked transparent scroll bars weren't possible, but then I came back to Subeta and BAM. I know that one of the pets who won the spotlight (Lasting, I think was the name?) has a "hidden" scroll bar... and I'd like to do that.
I've looked around in posts for transparent backgrounds on pets... would I be able to simply remove the white BG myself (I have PS) and use that as an overlay? The rules on this are a bit grey (to me! I'm a bit blonde :3).
The thing with hidden scrollbars is that they are covered. Some people design in a scrollbar cover into their profiles and place that image over the scrollbar. With Lasting, they used part of the background with the carousel. Which can be done with PS.
It may take a few tries but with photoshop it is possible. Which pet were you looking to do?
If you're looking for someone to edit out a white bg I might be able to help =3 I don't think you can submit it to the overlay system to show up transparent across the site (though most areas of the site have white bgs anyway), but you could code it onto the pet's profile. It'd be worth submitting a ticket about the official system though, as only staff could answer that.
It's possible to have transparent scrollbars without a cover up, examples would be my pets Dappled and Eisen, although with them I only made the tracks transparent rather than the entire thing.
<style>
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:vertical {background-color: ; height: 50px; -webkit-border-radius: 5px;}
::-webkit-scrollbar {height: 10px; width: 5px; background-color: ;}</style> This might not work in firefox, I'm not sure. I know it works for Chrome and Opera though.
- Crap! Alright, thank-you, though. :) I'll see what I can do.
- That would be awesome. I want them all to eventually have a transparent BG, but right now I'm working on my main pet, Noirian. She's a Glacier Irion. I saw your commissions page... do you take sP as payment? If so, how much do you charge? I'd be interested in a simple overlay! And sorry, I know this isn't the place for commissions. :-P
- Thanks! I'll give it a try. I just hate how I have some darker layouts I want to code, but with the scroll bar... it looks so ridiculous!
My overlays are 2000csc / 60,000,000sp / £20 a piece, more examples can be seen on my Art Shop =3
- Awesome. I'm going to look over your art shop. In the meantime, how much would it be to get the background on my pet made transparent?
