Default Style used by vB-FAQ?

I really like the style used by vB-FAQ.com. Can anyone tell me if it or something like it is available somewhere? Preferably free

It's a pretty simple style with a few custom images and a couple of minor CSS changes to the default style. If you have some images then you could actually get something similar in style pretty quickly and easily.

I actually did receive a response over on their site this morning, stating that the are using a custom skin. What I'm really after is anything similar, especially when it comes to colors and the profile layout in each post (postbit???). My current default style has that grey profile across the top each post, rather than justified to the left of the message. If I could just get the color theme changed that would be a great start. I'm completely new to vB but I really don't like blue... why are most forums blue anyway?

I can probably get my way through replacing the colors and gradient images, but then there's the buttons. I'm not crazy about their (vb-faq) buttons but at least they aren't blue.

One more feature on their site is when drilling down into a forum (sorry, don't know the page descriptions) they have extra boxes along the right side. This is probably over my head for now so I'll just settle for getting the colors set up.

In your vBulletin settings, look for something like "Enable legacy postbit" and enable it. That will give you the 2 column postbit.
