Was wondering if anyone had a template or layout with a zombie theme? I'm using TD at an event coming up in the next week that has a zombie theme and thought it would be cool to skin TD to go with that theme. If anyone has anything or can help me out I'd greatly appreciate it.

bumped a zombie wallpaper onto my abstract layout for you. See what you think
-
I like it! Now how do I actually incorporate it?
-
Download the ZIP file. From the TD: layout tab -> Import / Export button -> Import an exported layout into your Data Store. Then you should be able to load it using Load on the layout tab.

Ok I downloaded it and was able to get it to pull up but the zombie background isn't in there? How do I change it to the zombie background?
Sorry for all the questions I've only ever used the default layout
-
Disregard I figured it out. Man there is a lot of information in this layout....gonna have to sift through and make sure its showing what I want lol. Thanks guys!

Hey Stuart I'm having trouble, the layout is using a 24 hour clock for the time even though I don't have it set that way in the preferences. Is that something I have to change on the layout maybe?
-
There's a cell in this layout called "time of day". Edit that cell. The contents look like this:
<sp> <currentTime format="24-hour">
If you just remove the format part, you'll get a 12-hour clock:
<sp> <currentTime>
Because this layout makes extensive use of transparent backgrounds, it becomes a little difficult to deal with in the layout tab, as you can't read all of the cell names. To help, you can press the Preferences button on the Layout tab and then uncheck the box next to Stylize preview.
Sorry to jump in for you Stuart but I wanted to point at that last bit that I thought might be helpful.

Awesome. Thank you!
Yes I've noticed there is a TON of information on the layout, which is fantastic but it looked so technical that I didn't want to mess anything up. I did delete a few columns that I don't typically use and such.
It's a really cool looking layout, I just appreciate you guys helping me out.

Seems Corey has everything under control here, glad you like it!
The real handy thing about this layout is it will take pretty much any dark wallpaper as a background, just click on properties in the layout tab and you can change the background from there.

Hey Stuart, we don't use antes in our Tourneys is there anyway to remove the Ante from the blind display?
-
I'll jump in again. The way that layout is implemented, the antes always display. I made a quick modification to remove them.
