Whats HOT!.. Whats NOT!..
 

HOT!

-Bold, non-underlined, thread titles in forumdisplay
-Online! as a special color (ie. red/yellow to stand out)
-Broken up forum catigories on forumhome

NOT!

-Heavy dark colors (ie. black bg's) with lots of white text
-Open solid color space along sides of 760x width sites (even I break this one)
-Cluttered postbits..

Well the hyper-links are indeed in at the moment. Underlined links are beginning to be a thing of the past.

Special online colors are too, makes it look very colorful. Some forums it suits but some it doesn't.

can you tell me where to find the who's online mod so that i can alter my who's online box to have it show separate colours for users/admin/mods ? i saw it on here somewhere but lost it.....did a search and can't find it anywhere!

thanks in advance!

Describes just about every gaming board out there. If I had to say "HOT" based on what I see in other vBulletin sites, and not just my personal opinion, I'd say the term includes ...

* Low contrast color schemes, especially dark backgrounds with dark colored or grey text
* Anime and gaming boards
* Palatino, used as the vBulletin default font
* RPG stat hacks (i.e. member "strength," "dexterity," etc.)
* Drop-down moderator lists
* Multiple avatars for each user (main avatar, rank avatar, signature avatar, and so on)

It's a hack, not a template edit. You can find it at vBulletin.org [link]

much thanks for being kind to the newbie! :D

I like just having the bold and bold/italic for my WOL. Don't like too many colors. :p

No problem mmmender. I remember what it was like when I was one. :)

HOT:
My websites colours
My website

NOT:
Anyone who doesnt like my websites colours
Anyone who doesnt like my webiste

:)

I could say, your purple scheme isn't the best thing. :p
