    And I just keep switching to the latest one. There haven't really been any I disliked but the Royal Flush.
    Ask me a question about your c900! I promise I either can answer it or know someone who can

    I liked Royal Flush at first but now I don't care much for it either. Many of the themes you can buy are just not right in some ways.

    I basically start out with the standard vBulletin theme and make color, style and positioning changes. It is very easy to get carried away and change to much. And there are many elements that can be changed. Here is a list: vB4 StyleVar list for 4.0.1 Suite

    And then you have to make a header, removing the backgrounds from the cars so they become transparent and they are easy to position and resize.

    Site is different everytime I bring it up Looks good in all seriousness. My only fault is with how large/slow the pages load. If there was a way to make them load quicker that would be my only suggestion so far.

    That's most likely because the site is running on a shared server hosting plan and not its own (virtual) server. It has been a pretty small forum until this week so traffic was fairly low. The plan is to upgrade to a virtual server as the site continues to grow.

    Browser choice makes a difference though. Chrome is pretty fast. Firefox 3 was sometimes very slow on my Mac at home but I am currently testing FF 4 beta/RC1 which feels much faster as well. Some of the more advanced editing features with vB4 need a more advanced browser like FF.

    I have to say I just discovered the themes a couple days ago, and I like them all but the Holiday theme. The one I like the most is the Phoenix. In any case, congratulations Wulf and thanks for your hard work on the site.

    I updated the Clear Ice theme with a new header, lighter blue for most elements and a few other minor changes. Renamed to White Blue and set as the site default.

    Not much color is the point of this theme. I think there even may be too much blue as it is.
