I am putting the finishing touches on a WordPress theme that I'm going to release soon, and decided to make a forum skin to match, I"m still goofing around with the group, forum and topic icons, but the bigger buttons and the colors are basically finished (except for a few bits) You can see what I'm aiming for at:

I call the forum skin "Pinkish" after a lipstick color. 🙂

I actually like these 'less cluttered' themes. As you can tell from mine I can never leave them alone and I keep fiddling with them until they hit overload and then I start again! In three years I think I have gone through about 12 different looks!

Anyway - I want to suggest more width. make it bigger!

I am sending you a PM...

We're on the same wavelength - I've decided to make another page template, without the sidebar so the forum will be full page.

Got your PM!

Have another look! The URL has changed, but that's not all - I am almost finished with the CSS (future reference - do that first next time!). I'm going to change the buttons a bit to look better, I still want them white but just a bit glossier. I still have some bits left (forms) but I kind of like the look of it. The posts table was a real struggle but I'm at least satisfied with it.

LOL - I am a very pink leaning person! 🙂

I changed it a lot, and upgraded of course and the URL has changed, but it's a day from release:

http://rosecitygardens.com/tic.....pink/forum - now an amalgaman of Silk and Sweetie icons, new buttons and of course, pink...

I notice the IDs in the forms - yay! I've got one more to style and I'm done.
