Styling vB4 is a lot harder than styling vB3
I really dislike the default skin for the new vBulletin because it is much harder to customise. There is about 10x more CSS in VB4 versus VB3, and because the developers decided to avoid tables, the CSS is complicated and unintuitive. The total amount of CSS for a typical page in VB4 is around 70 KB whereas VB4 uses only 5 KB of CSS, this means you've got to do around 10x more work.
What would be awesome is for someone to create a skin for VB4, which uses a single and small CSS file, as with vB3. This could be a table based skin. Designers could then use it as a base to build upon.
What are other people's thoughts on this? Have you tried customising vB4's skin and run into the same kind of trouble?
