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:

I notice the IDs in the forms – yay! I've got one more to style and I'm done.
Very… er… pink!
