Trend*****
 
I Dunno about you guys on the board but I personally think that this board has alot of Trend***** to it. Example 1: The metallic look(rivet like)is found on nearly to every vbulletin forum there is.

Yes it does look nice, but after having to look at it on more than 10 forums, it does become boring and the actual 'gab' of the dots are gone.

All I am saying is that we should have a True Unique Interface where we can say that "Yes, this truely is unique to vBT".

Do you not think so?

I think vBT should have its main pages' templates completely modified, people shouldn't be able to recognise it as a vB ;)

There are six or so style sets here, many of which have been donated. I believe that SD made the default set himself and that's the one I use, personally.

Some of the others are normal Ravio skins that you can just buy, and since everybody buys (or pirates :rolleyes: ) them it makes them look like trend wh***s. :)

MaXNet 12-07-2002 07:23 PM

Agreed :(.. Piracy, what a shame really :(.

but when ravio is making the people who buy the style, he/she should make them look different, i've some of his custom styles, and honestly, they look exactly the same :|

*hides his Photoshop and Flash MX and 3DS max and all the the software on his computer*

wha? I dont have kazaalite!

Piracy is indeed a bad thing. Back when i frist got into forum hacking i used a warez verson of ubb 5, i dident know it i was doing anything wrong until i started posting at scriptkeeper. At that time i removed my copy and paid in full for ubb. Back then it was easy to get away with using warez software on the net as most people did not code call home fetures into their software. Now a days you are going to get found out, people sould just buy the software insted of trying to get it for free.

...

The skin is fine, and it hardly has any 'metallic' look to it. Expect maybe for the category images but thats it. Everything else is either tables or the snow background which I personally like.

As for piracy, what my fellow mods said goes for me too.

MaXNet 12-08-2002 07:34 AM

i guess, but to me it still seems a little trenwhory :(

Tony G 12-08-2002 08:16 AM

It was made a long time ago, so considering the date you joined here people might have copied him instead.

Cypher720 12-08-2002 02:04 PM

aint that the truth! - well said Tony...exactly what i was thinking

MaXNet 12-08-2002 05:00 PM

ok then..

Brad 12-08-2002 07:30 PM

Its true, scence vBt frist went online many other sites have in some way copied parts of the style, mostly the postbit template.

N9ne 12-08-2002 07:33 PM

A lot of people directly ripped the category images too...

Tony G 12-09-2002 03:15 AM

The boxes around the stats has been probably the most common thing or rip I have seen. It's just silly.

I do customized styles for people that ask :)

Tony G 12-09-2002 04:49 AM

We don't get to choose, do we? :p

Nairb 12-09-2002 04:55 AM

I customize to what they want...
Sry, I didnt understand your question :p

Tony G 12-09-2002 05:14 AM

I meant when your asked. ;)

imported_Eternale 12-09-2002 09:17 AM

lol u cant a table.

Most sites i see only think "Graphical" over "Originality" You can try to argue with me but thats my Opinion.

Tony G 12-09-2002 09:18 AM

What do you mean? They use too much graphics?

SaintDog 12-09-2002 12:31 PM

vBulletinTemplates original style is easily available for viewing, you do not have to choose the 'Grid Lock' style. While I do not think it is trend*****, you may think otherwise.

Many people use the same style but that does not mean it is trend*****; you may have the wrong idea of what trend***** really is.

Grunge would be a prime example of trend*****, the exact same images are used over and over in various designs; you cannot really say the same for the grids as they are different in various designs.
