¿Is possible a template how the original phpBB template?  I need one because in my board, many people say to me that they don't like the templates of this forum, because a lot of they are from an phpBB forum, and the newbyes don't are good with the templates (but the old members are very happy, but many new members don't post in my forum because they don't like it).
In the Spanish support forum someone say to me what in the April's fool Day you use a phpBB template... ¿that's true? You can send it to my email?
A lot of thanks :D
PD: Sorry for my bad English.

Sorry .. but a phpBB template or what is known as subSliver cant be used without phpBB permission.
Really sorry .. real life is demanding my full attention .. will be back soon hopefully :)

Point is , people *can* make themes that are exact copies of others, its just that the original owners has rights in this. If its another board script does not matter, its still a breach of copyright.

Think of this way, the next time it can be your theme that get copied. What then?

CartDestr , I suggest you install a couple of themes for SMF and let your members try them out. They might like these new ones more than Subsilver( which I personally think is way too overused, but thats another matter..  ;D ).

I have 3 themes  of SMF, and the registered members like it, but the guest say to me what they dont be registered beacuse dont like the themes...
thanks to all, I go to adapt the xtEnhanced theme (the template of my forum) with a couple of modifications in the fonts and put this "new template" for the guest and unregistered...
Bye :D

Ok. :)

But why not make a theme that have the same layout but different graphics? Change all PHPBB spesific pictures/styles?

Midgard

how you know that i can't do it? There are four diffrent theme that I'm working on. But I wıll not public all, just I will ones. Waste not worked on SMF. Somethings isn't deserve...

Usually when you put [Theme] and (Preview) in a title of a topic it means that it IS going to be published here. If you just want to show what you have done, the Showcase forum would probably be better.

Midgard

Do you want remove this topic?

This is only a model/example --Usually is Preview ...

Merged into the request thread since it is not  a theme thread. As Bloc wrote the [Theme] prefix is misleading - and a PHPBB theme cannot be distributed for copyright reasons.
