So I have been working on this theme off and on for awhile now. I still can't think of a name for it lol.  Took some inspiration from the Xenforo default theme and the Smf 2.1 Steyle by webtiryahi.

Still have quite a bit to go, I am wanting to spice up the footer section.

I really love the looks of this theme with one exception. I don't see the search box anywhere. I know there's a search function but not having the search box is a deal breaker for me.

May wanna double check the top ;).

Oh crap! Sorry, but does that give you the options of 'Entire Forum', 'This Board', etc.?

Btw, my wife suggested 'Blue Wave' or something similar for a name. P

From the top bar search itself no, by default it is just the entire forum. With that said though, you can adjust the search parameters after the initial search though.  I mainly did it this way for a cleaner look.

Okay, sounds good. And I edited my post to include my wife's suggestion for a name.  :P

Honestly, I'm not sure about the wavy footer or, the links (they look slapped on so far). That's the only thing I can point out, but that's preferences really. I just feel it could look more striking, maybe changing it slightly so it doesn't look as if water is pouring out from the left/less of a wavy sea.

I realise it's work in progress, but if I just left positive feedback and ignored the above then there no point in me commenting.

Colour scheme looks nice.

Index layout is different in a unique and good way.

Navigation seems good.

Very nice work.

You've got some awesome themes btw.
I'm stuck in a time warp from the early 00's.

That actually works quite well for the name.

I figured that name was already used, did a quick search on the theme site and sure enough it was not used yet.

May take that suggestion, so let her know I said thank you.

The copyright footer having its own colour is a good addition. Also, the logo goes nicely. 👍🏻

@TwitchisMental  - Have you decided 'Blue Wave' is what you're going to call it for sure? If so, maybe change the topic title?

Yeah it probably is. Updated title.
