Looks awsome dude. This is what i have been lookin for, and this is great.
But there is to much blue in the background, is this easy to change and will it affect the skin itself if i change the background color?

Regards

Obi

thanks you can change the background colour by opening the overall_header.tpl file and look for the blue code: #3980F4 and replace it with what you want :d

thanks people if i have time to make another theme since this was my first phpbb2 theme and it took me 3 days because i had to edit code to make it look like how i wanted it to look trying to resemblance the xp look and feel. I am glad so many people like it though

3 days!? Geez, it would take me weeks; I'm terrible with graphics. I'm not very creative, and that's what makes good graphic designers: creativity. I'm also using Paint Shop Pro, maybe I should try Photoshop. 8O
