Default Request Tutorials on making a custom style

Hello I'm trying to use CSS to make my own style with the style editor.

I see there are plenty of ways.

I'm requesting links to some tutorials. On how to make your own style and also how to design your forum page yourself.

Thanks again.

A very easy way is by appending all of your custom CSS stuff to the additional.css template.
The style editor is very limited, by scripting your own CSS you have tons of options.

Thank you. I'll be checking back for more information on this like a tutorial.

I'd like to have something to read to understand more about this.

Seem no one will tech you from a to z, you need to see vbulletin templates and see how they are working to edit according your ideas

I did my custom theme for my SEO forum and I'm succeeding with this way.

If you have any questions about forum themes, don't hesitate to share me, I will support you.

'additional.css' is a template.

Go to your AdminCP and do a 'Search Templates' for the files by name {ie: additional.css}

I highly recommend that you do all mods to a child or backed up version of the styles just for safe measures.

Thanks for the info.

I'll put any other design questions here in the future.
