I have seen it done on some forums running vB and I want to do it on mine. I've tried searching on here for something like it but to no avail. I would like a user-selectable template (or is it called a style?) that changes the forum into a "work safe" mode by disabling all avatars and pictures in signatures. Also it would be neat if it could change the forum title to "Word 2003" or something so when you switch to another program it simply looks like Word is running down in the taskbar.

lol that would be sweet, but all i think you would have to do is code out a specific style you want and then while your at work just go to your forum via the url for that certain style

example: http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?styleid=2 < -- Your work safe style

My skinning admin has actually been working on a worksafe skin. He's put it on hold due to real-life things getting in the way but it's getting close to completion.

The first time I saw it I did a double take. It's quite disconcerting. It wouldn't hold up to close scrutiny but it would probably fool a casual glance.

Here's a screenshot. Sorry for the widescreen.
