Default WETalkSports.com, branding, styling, design

Site's forum: http://wetalksports.com/forum/
Definition: a site where we talk anything about sports...

Focus for review: Branding... WETalk is a company that is starting some new themed forums, this one is the first in the collection, and i was requested to create a new style, install and configure a new vBulletin and some addons, like vBookie, the arcade and some other hidden stuff...

The goal of the owner?!... compete ESPN with a forum instead of just News and stats... in the near future, they will add more professional stat blocks and more content to the forum, more topics and a staff team. My job was to configure the site, not manage it...

(even the site owner decided to move some blocks on the forum tonight without changing their style... we can discuss this too... ;0) )

I also created a complete SportsNetwork.com integration for vBulletin--which will be released on my site in some days... this system completely integrate the Feeds from SportsNetwork.com, with header/footer, and you can customize it to cache the entire content of these news so it require less loading time when you view the entire content...

on WETalkSports, the TSN.com content is listed in the gray navigation bar, and in all the Sports News in the portal and wrapper. the Scoreboard is the only one which is not grabbed serverside, due to its javascript.

There is a lot of missing elements on the site, please consider it's a WIP!



(actually this is my second complete site-flip this month!)

oh, btw, the forumicons, threadicons and some other packs on that site are custom ?2008 nexialys.net!... just in case you ask.
