New Theme ?

[jacek]

I think we have been using the default theme for long enough now, the plan was to replace phpbb with my amazing forum thing way before now but that has been held up by so many different things it's going to take a while ! I did manage to get the phpbb database import to work though which was not easy !

So, as a slightly more permanent temporary measure. Does anybody know of a nice phpbb theme I could use that does not require any extra branding ? Also, if anybody wants to make me a logo that would be awesome ! I can't really do much in terms of payment, but I can put your name (and a link) somewhere on the site if you like ? If not, I will have a go myself, but it will look bad

Milky way is just fine

I quite like this one http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/1BlackOut
It's a bit dark but still!

I also like this one http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/X_Silver I wish they had it "less-wide" though :S

[jacek]

http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/X_Silver is pretty nice ! Should be easy to fix the width too, I had to do that to the current one.

http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/X_Silver is the winner so far, any objections ?

I like it! At first when I clicked the BetterPHP bookmark I thought it redirected me to the FireFox website

I like it too. It's a very solid theme.

[jacek]

The bit at the top seems a bit too big to me, I might see what I can do about that when I get a new image to replace the balloons.

[Temor]

I like this theme. It's really clean

Nice pick Jacek

The majority of phpBB templates are absolutely horrible.

I apArrantly was logged out before school, so my iPod saved the login page for when I got back later today (now)
I logged in, and im like "whoa! New theme!"

[Tino]

Pretty nice!

Actually somewhat reminded me of the default IPB theme when I first saw it.

[jacek]

There are still some irritating things, mostly they are phpbb issues. One thing that bugs me is that there are links and butts all over the place ! And for some reason 3 separate control panels, c'mon who's idea was that !?

[JelvinJS7]

there are links and butts all over the place

There are What?!

[jacek]

buttons, dammit firefox !

Made a few tweaks, images should now no longer be wider than the post area.
I also remove the silly balloons and made the bit at the top a lot smaller.

I don't know but... I'm still seeing balloons
