This is an alternative skin for Typo3 3.8.x and Typo 4.0.x. Typo3 logo is for Typo3 4.0.x.
If you want more consistent layout for Typo3 3.8.x copy from the '/skin_grey_2/' folder 'loginlogo_transp.gif' to /gfx/ folders of Typo3 3.8.x.
This skin base on 'skin_grey' of Lasse Nørby. Most icons are from skin_grey skin but I have added some new icons, which I have personally done or taken from the 't3skin' for Typo3 4.0. As default this skin use module icons from t3skin. I added es an enable option the possibility to use original module icons of Lasse' s skin_grey or Windows XP style module icons. I have made them tiny changes in order to get consistent image sizes and using the new Typo3 logo, which came with version 4.0.
Now taken account also Lasse's another skin ('modern_skin') and use CSS and icons of that skin.
The possibility to use horizontal collapse/expand for page/file navigation tree has been taken from 'skingreyman' of Michiel Roos.
Peter Klein have done the basic scripts for the new top menu for module selection, which I have made fitting for this skin. The new top menu is a new option in addition of existing alternatives, for example alternative for 'Left menu frame (default)' . It can be normally selected from 'User > Setup'.
This plugin is for Typo3 3.8.x – 4.0.x.
Many features of 'tm_contentaccess' have proper layout using skin_grey_2. With tm_contentaccess and skin_grey_2 you can get new layout for the classic page module and TemplaVoila page module.
If somebody installs skin_grey_2, that doesn't prevent using other skins, if the plugin 'kb_skinselect' has been installed. Kb_skinselect changes CSS files and icons. It has some problems, which has explained later in this document.
Other authors have done following implementations:
Lasse Nørby – original CSS-file, basic icons and most background images.
Peter Klein – alternative top menu (implemented in tm_shared_lib).
Michiel Roos – collapse/expand functionality (implemented in tm_shared_lib).
Bernhard Kraft – some code for 'User > Setup' module (implemented in tm_shared_lib).
Skin_grey_2 is basically just a skin but it is possible to add for it some extra functionalities, for example new menu type for selecting modules, configuration through User > Setup.
Note. Starting from version 1.1.2 all special implementations need the 'tm_shared_lib' plugin. In previous versions many functionalities were included to skin_grey_2 directly but because many features were common with the plugin tm_contentaccess, it was reasonable to create a shared plugin. Most configurations, which are described in this manual, don't work without tm_shared_lib installed.
