Hello, I'm new here. I spent the better part of 2 hours searching this forum, vbulletin.com's forum as well, and i cannot find anything about free skins or styles . I used to use phpBB2 and they had a ton of free "templates" there. I could be wrong but their templates look more like vBulletins skins. Forgive my ignorance

Can anyone supply a link, webpage, etc where i can get free styles/skins made for vBulletin. There has to be some free ones out there. I use version 2.2.9 i believe

Also, Mist i think his name is. Had a real nice tutorial on button making. The pictures do not show up anymore, if you get time Mist can you repost the pictures, it would help.


I also have a "noob" question about buttons that i never saw anyone ask. Is there a certain size limit on the buttons. For instance, if i use the default template and just change the buttons, do i have to keep them the same size in order for the page to display right? If they are close to the same size is that allright? etc.

And if anyone can help, i seen threads about a couple of websites where they give you free fonts, but nothing i've seen tells me where to put the fonts. Thanks for all the help for anyone that can

Thanks for the replies.

What about my question about button sizes?? I'm concerned that if my custom button sizes don't match the default sizes exactly the pages won't display correct. Am i just being paranoid??

Thanks again for all the help

Yes , no buttons/images in the templates have been given a set size thus allowing you to make custom buttons etc.

Look around some forums and find the image sizes of buttons. That should be the size you should work on.
