Default VB2 - VB3 Style converter?

I've got a valid license and have been waiting for VB3 to come out for quite sometime now, but now it's out, it has one drawback, that being it doesn't convert vb2 styles to vb3 format, so it converts to the yucky blueish washed out look.

If anyone could create (if possible?) A vb2 style to vb3 style converter, it'd be appreciated.

Its faster and easier to manually re-create your style. The amount of work required to try and convert/merge/replace all text etc in a style would take a ridiculous amount of time and probably end up messing it up.

Simply put its just not feasible hence why its not built in.

Well, all i'd want is the proper color's copied across to the right areas of the board
On VB2 it's extremely simple, as there's only a few fields to fill in, with vb3 there's a whole load of options

Hmm, then maybe i'm doing something wrong, but when I upgrade my forums to it, it doesn't actually....convert the colours.
So when users load up the forums, they get the narrow blue theme.
When I goto the style panel, there's like 4 styles in there with different names
I only have 1 style on my old board.

Hmm.............I bet i've done something wrong, hehe

It should give you:

Your Forum Title vBulletin 3 Style (the default blue vB one);
Any old styles with converted colours;
vBulletin 2 Custom templates (any templates changed in vB2);

At least thats what I got when I converted, so you should have 3 styles (if you only had one vB2 style).
