Installed a bunch of hacks, most of the admin tools, and I think it looks pretty good so far. It's running the Ambience skin.

Enjoy!

There are so many graphic design forums on the net that a forum with a bought pre-made vbulletin style won't attract a mess load of designers to come and post.

I like the fact the forums are set up only for design and keep the main focus going, but I suggest you make your own custom style.

You may also want a gallery modification since it is a design forum and attachments can only go so far....

I'm working on a style, but I'm still trying to get the whole vb template coding down.

My thoughts are exactly in line with defis :) You need to have an outstanding custom design to make yourself stand out, particularly having a designer member-base.

I'd reccomend taking a look at the vB manual over at vBulletin.com if you're having troubles working with the template system :)

Its lovely, I really like colour schemes with silver and blue. Like the table headers, maybe I need photoshop again.

Pre-made styles won't work with the hoards of graphics communities around, like people have said before me. You need something to make you stand out from the rest. :)
