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
WOW.. looks amaaaazing now .. PS : If you want to see what I meant by IPB intuitiveness check BFM
Ahh yes, that does look pretty close. I have also updated the first post of this thread with all these instructions since this question seems to come up a lot.
Can I add this to my board as a second style that is user selectable? I have got lots of users who actually like the new VB Greenish theme, but I don't like it myself too much and would like to select this blue for myself and have it available to other users that wanted it.

Sure, go to the Admin CP > Options > Style & Language Settings > Allow Users To Change Styles Yes
thanks for this style, really nice colors!
there's a small problem but i couldn't figer it out how to change!
it's the copyright footer color, when you click on "what's new?" the color of the footer copy right changed to really bad color to read!

Good catch, if you look for in your stylevars for shade_color you will find it, you can change it to this to make it fit:
rgb(0, 0, 51)
