cPanel Advance

Box-Matt · 4th May 2003

Anyone know who developed/distributes cPanel Advance?

Could be wrong, but it looks like its just a skin for regular cpanel as I cant see anything extra on it.

Box-Matt · 5th May 2003

Yeah, but who made it?

FYI, the 'Cpanel Advance' theme is only available to MCHost clients. Other than that, one of my favorites is xskin.

Yeah, it's just a skin, nothing too clever, you could probably knock up something similar yourself in a few hours as these days CPanel doesn't seem to be changing much on the front end side of things, so it's not as much hard work maintaining a skin.

I can assure you it's not only available to MCHost's clients - it was available on my old server and many other hosts use it. Whether they made it in the first place I don't know - I've emailed them but so far, no response.

I agree with Karl, just make one yourself, this skin isnt that attractive anyway. Voxthemes.com have some nice cpanel skins for next to nothing too...

Lol ... we have it installed on our CPanel server. Will try to find out where we got it from for you.

I think it's called bluesim if that helps?

Box-Matt · 7th May 2003

It's not bluesim, that's another one.

Cranky · 7th May 2003

Is it a very similar design?

Cranky · 7th May 2003

I've used the skin before - but can't find it on our CPanel box or anywhere else for that matter. Any chance of seeing a screenshot again?

Alright, lets see...long time ago, we purchased a theme from cpanelthemes.com, see http://www.cpanelthemes.com/coolbreeze.php , its called "coolbreeze". Honestly, the skin didn't really look visually well, so we used it as a base of our new skin, just like everyone here either used the iconic cpanel theme or bluelagoon as their base. The skin, except for the placement of the navigation structure, looks totally different. All graphics, etc. were created by us.

Back then, it looked like the skin that cpskins.com is now selling ..we've developed it first, cpskins got their hands on it and modified it a little (i believe they did the same with fantastico, copyrighted by cpanelthemes), i did not really care. So we changed it again, mainly the right side navigation structure and that's what it looks like today.

Bottom point, if any hosting company is using CPanel Advance, without being a reseller, VPS or dedicated client of ours, they are doing so without permission, because the graphics, idea of "CPanel Advance" and HTML coding was done by myself.

Now, Vito from demodemo.com was authorized by us to create tutorials of the skin, because of its wide spread, mainly by our customers, there are very few unauthorized users.

Rackshack may have the tutorials, because obviously they purchased all available ones, but they do not have/offer the skin.

Hope that clears it up
