Now updated to vB 4.0.7 as labeled in the new download
Here's a skin I am sort of modeling off of vb.org here, I am using threadmarkers from Shelley_c https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229462 (mostly because I am just not that fond of the huge images they are using in 4).
To install go to AdminCP > Styles & Templates > Download / Upload Styles > Import style XML file and browse for vb4_blue-style.xml and import it. Upload the images to your forum root images folder, so it should be forum/images/vb4_blue.
Q&A
Q: How do I enable the side blocks?
A: Admin CP > Settings > Options > Forum Sidebar and Block Options. You must also go to Forums & Moderators > Forum Blocks Manager and add your blocks before it will work.
Q: I don't have a CMS, will this still work for the forum only?
A: Yes.
Q: It's working for the forum but not the CMS?
A: Login from the front end, use the pencil icon and change the theme to the new style instead of default style.
Anything 4.0.2 or below please download vB4_Blue.zip
How does this style work with 4.0.4? I am running this style on 4.0.3, do I need to do anything after upgrading to 4.0.4 in order to get everything right?
I have updated for 4.0.7. All my test have so far been successful, please let me know if there are any issues.
I just updated this to version 4.07, and for whatever reason it breaks the "What's New". When I use the default style everything is fine, and my what's new appear properly.
Any thoughts? All I get using this style is "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."
Incidentally, to upgrade I selected "merge into", not new style. Edit: I tried both installation methods and both ways this style's What's New is broken. I reinstalled the old vb4 and What's New is fine.

Hi WF, thanks for the feedback. I show that the "What's New" link goes to /search.php?do=getdaily&contenttype=vBForum_Post that's also the same as they use on vbulletin.com. Can you see if it's the same on your old vb4? If not, we can always replace the link on vb4 blue with the one that works.
