I have only modified the vbcms mainly, still needs tweaking though.

Nicely done! Similar to what I have done on the test instance.

Tonmo,

Very nice. Can you share or find out what you changed in the header code to make your logo drop down to middle and remove the header 1 banner slot?

I call it "Shades of Green"

Nice shades. Looks great. Maybe for article background use the widget_background color, otherwise the text to background color contrast is not adequate.

Didn't do the design myself, but here's my site: www.tonmo.com

How forum about Octopus News is more popular than mine, I have no idea.

That's an easy way to build your user base. If they really want the info and use your resources, make them register. It's free anyway! Almost all sites make you do that now: facebook, Kodak gallery, etc. They want your email address...haha

Exactly lol.

If you're talking about the preview, then if I'm not mistaken, that is a default setting: [stylevars: vbcms_article_preview_image_border]. You just don't notice it in the default skin against the white page background. If you mean the white-in-black frame Saqibm has around the larger images in the full-view articles, then that's something added using an image editor (photoshop?) prior to upload, by the looks of things.

Its a skin from here:

Here is a site I did for some clients. It is running VB4.01, with vBSEO behind the scene. Nothing sexy or overly exotic, but that is what they wanted in the way of appearance.

Most of the efforts went into the forum, that will be what ends up driving the CMS

I've custom coded the homepage using kohana network over vbulletin4.

Hi Guys, this is my first vB website and my first attempt at creating a forum. Although the early days with vb4 and 4.01 were a nightmare, 4.02 seems to be working pretty well for my application. Nothing exotic here, but hopefully you'll think it's done simply and well. I'm having a more professional header font/logo designed. I'd welcome your feedback - good or bad. Thanks! http://www.surftalk.co.uk

I can't wait to post my awesome site here (because, well, I customized it myself), but it's not yet ready for launch.

In any case, some of these websites are well done, but most are too uncustomized or ugly for my taste.

No pointing fingers.

My friend and I are both first time forum people too. http://www.trail-recon.com - It's getting there and we still have a lot we want to change.

[ashley76]

Here are both of mine. Nothing to fancy, but they get the job done... Although I have seen some cool things from some of the websites shown in this thread that I am anxious to apply to my own...

This is a great color layout. Would love to talk to you about it. Kevin
