    I'd get www.yetanothergeneralchatforum.com and attempt to have be the largest forum on the largest domain. You'd do it too if you were :bad:.

    no way, thats more than enough time. Plus I'm still working custom jobs, and my weekend offline job as well :)

    It takes me only 3 - 4 days to do a complete forum design. :D

    dat's me!!!

    I just don't get into all the splicing and dicing of images, and coding stuff.
    I start off with the default vB style, design original images to replace default images, apply template edits as needed, and waa laa. You have a quick loading, stylishly simple, yet unique, design.

    I've been getting into more coding lately, picking up tips here and there. Learning how to rearrange templates. etc. But I try to stick as close to default as possible.

    I must be doing something right, since I have custom jobs scheduled for the next 3-4 weeks. :D

    Maybe rather than having it drive you up the wall, you should try beating it against the wall.

    Me, personally, I hate the default vBulletin template. (I call it Old Ugly.) It's gray tinged and blocky and I'd rather get as far away from it as I can.

    LOL! I don't like it much either, but it's a good starting point.

    The forum looks great! I think it's going to be a lot of fun for you (this is kind of an odd statement, but it's true - I can see you really becoming one with this forum, Peggy).

    Peggy, it's looking superb! I love its design. :thumbup:

    Be sure to remind me when it's launched and I'll get it up on our sidebar under "Newly Launched." :D
