Hello all,

I just purchased vb4 tonight, and have spent the better part of the evening trying to find a theme that matches my main site in colour as much as possible. there have been a couple i have downloaded and installed....installed correctly as well as far as i can tell. but when i go to style manager and click the name of the new one i have installed, it shows me the style, but with all of the default colours.

i have tried re-uploading the xml file included with the zips...but i have tried 3 different themes, following the instructions to the letter, and still get the same result...layout changes but the colours remain the same as the default vb4 skin.

any help would be appreciated. also, if anyone checks my site out and can think of a theme that will work on the latest release of vb4, i would appreciate it greatly. thanks.

It's hard to tell what is going on without a link to the actual forums you are upload the styles to. Please post a link and make sure the styles are selectable.

please close this thread. instructions in both themes were missing a critical step in order for the XML file to upload correctly. thanks.
