That looks cool GH. Will this forum get a new look too?

It is not planned. But I'm thinking of integrating it into CMS.

About new look... Found a fantastic site with themes for joomla and phpbb. The biggest advantage is what it is possible to use the same theme both on site and forum.
My choice:
http://demo.rockettheme.com/?template=solarsentinel
http://demo.rockettheme.com/phpbb3/?template=solarsentinel
Simple and sleek. But they're commercial... :( and joomla-forum bridge I want is commercial too. :cry:

I'm disappointed that we haven't been able to find someone to make a theme for us. If you do find one, please don't let it be blue, especially light blue. I really can't stand this color any more.

I'd prefer something much darker and more serious. And not blue. :|

There's a style switcher on these themes. You can make it black if you like.
P.S. Just found and downloaded all 2009 year themes for joomla... But can't find phpbb ones...

Really good change in the long run, hope you can get some good theme running.

I would love to have the data shared with forums, but if it's compercial and you would need to pay $ then it's not such a big problem to reregister.

I love you... freeware. I wish I knew more about theme designing for websites. I'd make one that mimics something like the card frames! maybe with an option for old school, current, plane and future shifted.
