Am I able to design my layout in Dreamweaver (so I know what it will look like) and then put it VB? Reason I ask is because the code the styling in VB uses looks like CSS within php and wasnt sure if I could or not. I would like to design my header, background (sides) and footer.

vBulletin uses a lot of different css so there is a good chance that your layout will break when you copy it from Dreamweaver to vBulletin. You're probably best doing this type of editing in a text editor with syntax highlighting and copying it to a test vBulletin style that users don't have access to. Personally, I really like the free PSPad editor.

Yeah I figured lol.
I am still getting use to it. But what I normally find easy with web and I am finding difficult with VB. Such as my other post about footers.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
