Well I just found something quite interesting. All I will say is go to this page and have a "very good" read: http://www.iamvica.com/services/index.php?p=portfolio

Here is one quote from that site.

Quote:
Liandri is based on the colors of the ever popular Halo game series for XboxTM. Instead of being more of a design only for a gaming site, its made to be cleaner so it could work for regular forum sites as well.

Designed exclusively upon request by extremepixels.com.

I wouldn't be surprised...most commercial skin companies buy exclusive rights to many designs on the open market. There is a very large freelance design community and we are businesses after all

I'd have to agree. As far as I can see they design styles and sell them off to the vb styling providers. There's a few styles on there that I have worked with and had to replace some images because they didn't have fully complete images to compliment the styles.

Here is one quote from that site.
He has some great designs. The majority of the skins on the EP site are designed by myself. But... When I see a great design I will surely add it to our site as an offering. I purchased a few from him, basically tweaked them a little and coded them.

He's a very good designer

Yes, he really is good. I really love this one here. I like everything about it and it looks cool: http://www.iamvica.com/services/view.php?name=wf101&v=1

Unfortunately, it was designed for a sole customer with sole-rights to it.

A good list would be really useful though. I think I'll make one.

Thank you for the nice comment, and thank you for mentioning vbstyles in the list

I never thought of including or designing admincp styles other than for personal use, but if the demand is there I'm sure that I can include them with future releases.

Congratulations Mone, personally I respect vbstyles more than any other site about vb skins

I have to admit the "element" series has always been a favourite of mine. :up:
