I like this hack and have installed it on my own forum. My members also seem to like it.
One thing that was funky was the images, for some reason the color was off a bit and changed drastically from browser to browser. Greyish in IE, purplish in Netscape.
I altered the images for my own use as just a white box with a greyish table inside. (same images just color changed in Ps)
Nice though.
my profile page with this hack
