-----------------------------------------------------
Recently I've had a vBulletin theme in the works. I've been working on it for around 2 weeks now. I emailed vBulletin and asked what would be infringing their copyright, and according to them, if I didn't steal any images from vBulletin, I'm safe. I'm sure there may be something I'm missing.

That said, I'm looking for a helping hand. Given I'm new to creating phpbb themes, it'd be nice to have some help. I'd also like some feedback from these screenshots.

Note: I have someone making new "quote", "edit", "new topic", etc, buttons.

Looks clean and simple which is a good thing

Only thing I didn't like was the in topic view with those gross over sized edit quote delete icons.

Thanks! As I said, those were quick and thrown together. I've got someone working on new ones, hopefully soon.

Keep the topic buttons simple as you would with the regular vBulletin skin.

I guess an update would be in demand?

The past two weeks, I've been working quite hard on this theme hoping to release it soon. I've redesigned most of the subSilver looks, but used subSilver as my basic template. The coding is a mess, but I will clean it up once I've tested it, found bugs, etc. I'll be asking if someone would like to help test the forum out on a live community, so if anyone is interested, let me know.

And SAK, those buttons were just a quick throw together for the time being. After all coding is done (which is very close to done) I will redesign the buttons.

Any and all feedback is appreciated. I'd like to know what to change, and why. Thanks.

Once I've finished coding it (next few days, hopefully by the weekend), I'll get back to ya on that. Thanks.

I uploaded the test board. I use FireFox as my default browser, and now looking at my theme through IE.. it's not the prettiest thing. There are a few problems when viewing in IE, like abnormally large breaks, tables don't vertically align correctly, and two or three other problems, and two or three other problems. I'm trying to fix them now, but to no prevail.

Please, all feedback is very much appreciated. Positive or Negative.

And SAK, I haven't gotten around to making new buttons.

Anyways: http://phpvbb.awardspace.com

Note: Much of the theme is still under construction. The memberlist, for example.
