Is it possible to use phpbb themes on a vb setup? I know of a few freelance sites that do theme creation and I'm fairly certain the cost of them are not much higher than $20.

u would have to convert it, it doesn't cross over. mainly because all the damn forums uses different templates, such a bitch.

Maybe other people will, remember, this is not a software upgrade for your own computer. I just want the plainest, simplest skin there is. And default fits the bill. Put it back as an option PLEASE.

Misuzu

no matter what skin it is, it'll all follow this same horizontal design with info on top post on bottom. so it doesn't matter. and i'm not putting the default skin back in.

Nah, I was checking extremepixels and there's a bunch of them with infos on the left, like http://www.extremepixels.com/forum/index.php?styleid=52

this skin makes my eyes cry, but they cost 30$ so I'll stfu :D

i forgot where i saw the option, there's too many. but there's a legacy option that sets the info to the left instead of the top. but i think it changes for everyone, not a personal preference.

Why is it so hard to put the default skin in as an OPTION for old people like me who like antiquated things like BLACK text on a light background, and not the other way around.

Misuzu
04/15/2005, 02:07 PM
mainly because i don't want to edit 200 different templates.

This current and only skin is so bad it's beyond belief. And I'm not talking about personal preference.

There is scientific research proving black text on a light background is easier to read than the opposite.

Having the thread topic on top of every single post is retarded and just takes up space. Why is there? Is it there in case people forget what they are reading?

User names, avatars, etc, on top of posts is also bad, threads just become longer and there's more to scroll down to get to the text. Which is what I want to read.

If you deleted the default theme, which is very decent and functional, at least provide another simple GHETTO alternative. Please. Please.

it's a matter of style, if i wanted this to look like everything else i would've just stuck with the old board.

you'll get used to the layout, like everything else.

Exactly, it's a matter of style, did you expect everyone to agree with you on a matter of STYLE? I'm all for the new functionality and how this works better and more secure, but in terms of STYLE provide us with alternatives and don't just assume people will like the same things or want to adapt to your personal preference. If YOU wanted things to look different than the old board why do I have to adapt? I loved the old style, it was simple, easy to read, PERFECT.

u'll get used to it, not old enough that u need to wear glasses to read this.
