What was your first forum's theme?
Come work with me at Promenade Group



Need help? See the wiki. Want to help SMF? See the wiki!

Did you know you can help develop SMF? See us on Github.

How have you bettered the world today?

B

Hmmm.... my very first forum? It was a YaBB board that I customized myself. I didn't do anything fancy - just messed with the CSS. :)

As for my first SMF install, it was probably the default theme. I can't remember for sure. I've always been pretty happy with SMF's default themes. :) So far, Core has been my favorite, but Curve looks amazing.

Not the theme as in a customization, but in the topic of discussion.

Ahhh...sorry. :) It didn't really have a theme. It was kind of a general discussion area. Eventually, it became a poetry forum.
