New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

Group CSS:
You can add it to your forms and/or details custom_css.php file
Icon folder:
has been discussed several times but didn't make it back into Fabrik
The way images are searched see

CSS is not so complicated:
In your template folders (in Fabrik3+ there are different ones for form and details) rename custom_css_example.php to custom_css.php and add
#groupX.fabrikGroup {background:...}
(X= group id)
Icon folder:
I've added a pull request to GitHub for a subdirectory option

The group css was removed as its a bad design practice to inline style="...." in the document.
Styling should be handled via classes and a css file. This makes the document smaller and allows for the css to be cached.
Also we really try to keep the number of options down as much as possible inside Fabrik's admin pages (it may not look like it because there are already a LOT of options), We do have some layout options for some of the more major switches (e.g. the <table> bootstrap class which I think can be assigned) but to mico manage class/style options would become counter productive. You would end up spending more time looking for the field to edit that you do writing the css. Compound that with the fact you might need to search for an element first, edit it, edit the css save the element, search for another element etc, you can see the process becomes slow and unwieldy very quickly.

I am of the opinion that styling is part of templating, and as such should be handled within either Joomla's or Fabrik's templates. This allows for a single "source of truth" when it comes to styling a form, - the template's css file. It also allows you to use things like firebug to modify the css and copy and paste the files contents right back into your template's css file.
