you seem to be set on a black and yellow based theme have you looked through the themes available here

i found this one and it would be ok if you changed the default text color to yellow as it would match the rest of the theme

if you have a look at some of the themes in the mod centre they also have links to the creators site it is worth while visiting a few of these sites as they have skins/themes which are not available here and you may find a one which suits your needs better


Im sure someone here could provide a list of all the top theme sites....i cannot help as i only use this and bloc web

It may or may not work, won't know without trying it but you could try adjusting the colors on the theme with this http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=439031.0

It is possible to do it using an image editor and use either a colorize or hue and saturation functions to adjust the color.

I don't use gimp so the best i can do is say use this guide to edit all the images that make up the gold framing

You sir, I take my hat off to you and bow to your greatness :-*


There was only 51 images to change. A PSD would have made it a bit easier.

Btw, the theme seems a bit broken in some areas. It looks the same on my test site. Perhaps some css work may be needed to make a few adjustments.

Just a heads up.  ;)
