if anyone saw it before it was just a completely stock vB forum... I slowly learned how to modify it through trial and error... here is the result-- I would appreciate ANY feedback....

http://www.ownster.com/forums

Next i would like to get into modifying templates... I have seen forums that have the forum home with rounded edges and images... Any idea where i can find a tutorial on this?
Thanks,
Steve

On your site. I go to http://www.ownster.com/forums as you linked and it gives me:


Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /forums on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

This is very interesting to me... No one has had this happen to them yet... Have you tried again?
Try going to my ugly main page and getting there through that...

"Idea must be clocked" - what does that mean :s?

Anyways, I can't see any reason why this would happen on my end. Perhaps you have something in your .htaccess or httpd.conf file to show that message to people on my ISP or who share a similar IP to myself. I don't know, but I can't imagine any scenario that would give me that message which could be on my end :) It worked for only last week as I can remember commenting on your forums.

Me too, I can see it.

The style is nice overall. The banner is a bit plain though. And you've blocked off all but one forum to guests.

I like your button set too.
