I recently decided to take the vB plunge. My old phpBB skin was pretty poor, but I've never had time to do much better http://www.rantandroll.com/forum/.

But, with the switch to vB, I was forced to do better. To my surprise, there are very few free skins (or paid ones for that matter) available, at least compared to phpBB. So, I had to go for it myself. And then, still to my surprise, very few buttons and whatnot available for vB, so I mixed and matched some from free sets, and made some of my own (which I already dislike...).

Here is what I've got so far : http://www.rantandroll.com/tmpvb/?styleid=2

You'll notice I haven't converted it over yet...that will come eventually. I want to get the vB set up working good and looking at least decent.

So, just looking for general comments on the skin of my vB. Thanks.

It already looks better than your old site

clean and not distracting

the newthread and newreply buttons could be better ... as a matter of fact, any buttons with text could be cleaned up

Cool, thanks. Yes, I was planning on redoing the New Thread/Reply buttons...they could be improved.

And I suppose the others should be redone too (edit, quote, etc).

I like the way it looks, I did the exact same thing with my site, mixed and matched stuff up. I am not very good with this stuff so it seemed to be a working solution, utilizing free designs. Once you are all setup feel free to make a post in my Site Plug forum if you like (link is in my sig) I run a related type site.
