Here's my first uploaded style; it's a facebook clone.

It's a bit more complex then the other facebook style, and is Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional as per the W3C.

Contains:
Icon Sets
15 Template Edits
2 Minor Language Mods
Fixed or Fluid Layout

(Fixed and Fluid styles each have their own XML. If you want the fluid style, upload the FBA_FLUID, if you prefer the fixed layout, upload the other one.)

There are some heavily modified templates including postbit, forumdisplay, showthread, member info, header, navbar, usercp, and a few others.

Basically, member profiles are set up to display like a facebook profile. The header contains links to profile, memberlist and PM's.

Quicklinks are displayed on the left pane, as is the control panel sidebar (except only on pages where the control panel would normally appear). Postbit was modified to look more like a wall.

The language edits regard the "Forgot Your Password" and "{X} Unread" phrases, which were modified to make them display in a more pleasing way with the theme. They change to "Forgot Password" and "{X}" respectively.

I'll be gone this weekend, but will return on monday to fix any issues or update it for better useability.

If you find any bugs, or things are missing, or any ideas on how to improve the style, post below and I'll fix/change them.

To Install
Upload images_fba to the root forum directory
Import them theme file
Import language file (not required).

That's looks really good. Not suited to my forums, but you've done a fantastic job!

wow!

great job!! question.. is there anyway to make it so there is only left sidebar on forum? our users like full width when actually reading threads etc.

ps. can't wait for the fluid style!!

EDIT: ahh! fixed style just ain't working for our forums...
hope, fluid comes out soon... really want to use this.

I'll recode part after the long weekend to make it full width for those who prefer it that way. It won't be that easy to change with just the main style template, but is pretty easy to do nonetheless. It'll definately be the first thing on my todo list.

Thanks for the positive input.

other issues:

- doesn't seem to work well with vbadanced CMPS
- images break in vbagallery
- tabs don't work in profiles ... they all just appear as separate boxs in a long list.

awesome!!

I really love how you did this... facebook's style is very clean and tight (as in put together nice) one of its biggest attributes imho. but even more than facebook aspect is just how much you show how different forums can look with right application.


other questions/sugg:
- is there a way to cleanly add "blocks" to the left sidebar? I'd love to put other ads or things specific to our content. and a "highlighted profile" would be INCREDIBLE
- again, like Ultimate Side Bar add-on... option to see sidebar only on forumhome (or whereever) would be very high on the amazingness scale.
- fluid is much needed, but even more so, just ability to set a wider width. our analytics show most our users at 1024x768 and higher (other site is even higher average--different country )

I don't have vbadvanced cmps so I can't check why it doesn't work atm.
I'll look into the broken images, but I assume it's because of the small size.

Tabs don't work..there are no tabs, such is intentional.
