Default Sports site I set up for a fella

Please take a look and tell me your thoughts, ideas and suggestions.

Dude didn't want v4 and wanted a retro theme. I have already contacted JacquiiDesigns for a custom header - the one there now is only temporary.

Go! ---> http://www.dallascowboysforum.com

Note: site is down for a bit, they had to change the IP for it, there was a issue with the existing one.

I've always noticed the v4s are rather slow, especially compared to my own v3. And that's been a knock against v4 from Day One.

This one I set up here was fast out of the box, but got faster with the IP change today for some reason. There must have been some kind of loop or conflict with the original IP assigned, I dunno. It's greasy fast now.

I think that might have more to do with the excessive number of forum home modifications and additions you find on vB4 forums. A clean vB4 board has already run rather smooth for me, whereas even a clean vB3 board has an ever so slight noticeable load difference. But, that could just be some performance tweaks and the fact that so many of us used to (and still) have shared hosting packages back in the day.

Gosh that seems just like a old style Christian from vbdesigns.de did in the past (don't bother googling it the site is now gone) it just brings back memories is all .

Edit: Actually that is a vbdesigns style, "Radio vB" it took me a minute but I found it! Quick ? though... if vbdesigns.de is now gone how did they get a copy of said theme?

That's actually vbdesigns.de style there. Resurrected.

A big board I helped with a annoying problem had it and gave it to me as a fee for helping them out of their jam. It was quite fun porting that version 3.0 style to 3.8.7.

Erm... me does noth thinketh theyeth caneth doeth thatith!

Roughly translated, even back when Christian's site was up he was just like any other style creator i.e. license agreement/can't redistribute and most certainly had to enter in URL of site being used on. So with all that being said I would not use that style (I'm not 100% on this as I'm no lawyer) but seems copyright infringing to me and also well it was not theirs to give, payment of "fee" regardless...

Very old style, defunct company. But if he contacts me I'm happy to pay.
