WARNING: skin format changing on the weekend!
JdGordon:
the change has now been commited so its a moot point.
The plan is to use the themesite to control theme versioning through rbutil
atsakir:
Upwards which revision is the theme break commited in? The simulator for r26611 (6/6/2010) stiil uses the old syntax as I can see.
perrikwp:
As far as I can see, r26641 is the skin breaking change.
wintermute23:
OK, So I used the sims (r26651) to convert and test my themes, and they seemed to work fine. Uploaded them to the theme site, and downloaded the latest build for my player (r26660), and installed the updated version of the themes, and they completely fail.
For example:

This looks like this on the sim:
But on my player, only the icons in the top bar, and the text in the main viewport are visible. No text in the topbar, or the footer is appearing. In each case, the text and background colors are the same as defined in the CFG.
It looked like r26657 (which changed how %Vf/%Vb) are handled might be the problem, but getting rid of the spacing just made it the SBS fail completely.
For the WPS,

Looks like this in the sim:
but on my player, it fails without explanation.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, and how to fix it? Thanks.
EDIT:
I figured out that was going wrong! The new line at the end of the %V line was forcing the text down a line, so it was disappearing off the bottom of the viewport. Putting the text on the same line as the %V directive fixed it.
I suspect this is a bug?

The theme site currently doesn't handle the new format. Please refrain from using it and especially from uploading themes until that's fixed.
