I have to agree this is pretty funny...

But imho, it is the ugliest theme EVER!!

Great job though'

Ahh, php-Nuke nightmares :(
Nice looking subsilver replica :)

Cheers! :)

LOL

I hate phpBB, but love this theme (not for own use, but its very funny!)

Lovely!

very nice

Woow I love it.!

LOL! that's great, your too funny!

gr8 thanks a lot

You can play a prank on people on April 1st saying that you've switched to phpBB.

Just wondering, it still shows my background, which is dark blue .. how come ?!?

Ha ha, nice one. This takes me back to the dreaded days of using phpBB. :p

now users can use the interface they've been used to XD

Are you sure you are able to use the phpBB images? AFAIK they are under a differnt license than the phpBB coding.

Yep. I've contacted the leader of the "styles team" (Erisar at phpbb.com) before release this style in public.

This is part of the PM conversation with him:
And... i think is all right with that :paranoid:

Don't think its possible to have a GPL product with a paid one though.

But the GLP is only for the template/style, what is free... not for the "product" himself (that we know is paid).

like phpbb ... thanks

Well this be updated after the 3.6 is out for good, no more rcs? I'm looking to get it, but only have 3.54 for now and don't want anything messed up. Just wondering. Also, nice theme, just recently bought vb and everyone at my site complain about the layout of vb and all, maybe by installing this, it will trick them and they won't complain. ;)

thanks for this, a client was wanting it :)

When vb3.6 comes gold, i will update this Style. Don't worry ;)

More than likely there won't be any issues with it. I'm still using a 3.0 style on my board with 3.5.4 and have no doubt it will work with 3.6 :) - harmor19 should be able to say if it works or not as the postbit suggests that the user is using {a} 3.6 {variant}.

my board used to use phpBB, im gonna have to remember this for april 1

It works with the latest version, i don't seem to have it displaying like it does with your screenshots.

I will have to use this for april fools day, well what the heck I have a few members that would like this. Especially as the main style we use now has not been ported so we have no Multi Quote Image

Nice. Though i gotta say its not as accurate.
Here is my port of the theme http://forums.alliedmods.net
It looks a little more phpBB'ish then yours. But still good job, as much as i dont like phpBB i think the theme is pretty nice.

:cool:

Hey freecode, i have to say your right. Can anyone make it more better, or is freecode going to release his?

is there any way to make this fixed ? not fluid

thank you

lmao .. pretty funny :p

i HATE phpbb .. its so ewwwwww ...

but this style isn't bad thou :)

gj

ohh man how i hate SubSilver or phpbb for that matter lol but great job on cloaning it :)

Can i use this with vb 3.6.0 gold?

Yes, you can it may have some things missing or some bugs though. There were many changes since rc1 to gold, not many but mostly bug fixes and if this template needs any i don't know.

I could use this template if it the colours or fonts were exactly the same with subsilver. I love subsilver. But this one is ugly. I don't think this is a clone.

the skin look gread but i have a questions are there any problems with vb 3.6.1 or you update this skin in the near future on the new version

thx feichti

lmao great now i can make my paid software look like it was free lol great job on it tho.

Memories...
Thanks TCattitude

its okay, but who would want their forum to look like PHPBB?

very nice work
thanks
