Hello there, everyone.

I've been looking around for tutorial's on how to design a vBulletin style using Photoshop. Despite numerous queries, I've not been able to nail down any concrete tutorial's or explanations on how to do this. If someone would be able to point me in the right direction, or explain it thoroughly themselves, that would be much appreciated. Thank you in advanced!

Regards,

Shaeandra

P.S. The following link shows an example of this, a style done using Photoshop.

I do not think there are any tutorials specifically for designing a vBulletin style via photoshop. Generally though - you'd create the design as you'd like to see the style appear and then code the style using css & html. The new 4.0 design is based on css customization. IDK... Perhaps someone else can be more specific?

Good luck.

There is no one way to design a style in Photoshop. Photoshop is just for fleshing out your ideas to see what the final product might look like. You can do that anyway you want. Once you go into making the style happen though, Photoshop doesn't serve any more purpose other than as a reference and for designing the images your going to apply to it. For example, someone might do a scale representation of their postbit and just cut the buttons from that image as the base for the real ones, or they may just use that as a reference and make large Hi Res buttons separately that they'll scale down later. It's really up to you what to do with it.
