vB4: Integration of Board into main Website

[Claiver]

Greetings fellow vBulletin-user! Thanks for reading my thread!

To give you a clear view of my intensions, I am going to show you a little source of inspiration and a good example of what I am trying to achieve:
d3armory.com

On the above example you can see how smoothly the forums are integrated into the website. I would like to achieve a similar thing. Is this.. possible? If it is, where would I start? If it's not, what would be the best work around to create a similar effect?
I'd like to move the User Panel out of the forums, and place it onto my own website (own interface, vb's functions).

Last question, I never really integrated a forum or anything alike before, so therefor I am asking here. In the above example, is the forum integrated in a way with include() or could it be achieved with a thing called <IFRAME> as well?


I greatly appreciate any given comment, and ofcourse, I appreciate the time you have taken to read my thread.


Cheers and a Merry Christmas to you!

Sincerely,
Claiver

Well, I want to -INTEGRATE- (include?) the forums in my homepage, not adding a header to the forums engine, no the reverse!

Sorry for being lazy. Someone around here has a mod that will Integrate with a SINGLE Wordpress install -- BUT WILL NOT EVER WORK w/ WordpressMU

On the other hand, if you want a major forum for vB, you could have minor forums for blogs w/ SimplMachines Forum, from what I understand they intigrate nicely --but not with vB -- so you could host WordpressMU and forums other than bbPress... on each blog

vB = One wordpress Blog as a front end.... unless a wizard appears
