Hi,

I want to change the look of the forum, ie colour scheme and fonts etc. How do I access the correct file in order to do this or are there different themes that can be downloaded ready to install?

Thanks

Hi, This is something that I am interested in as well.

There are some 'kinks' in customizing a theme. When I say 'kinks' I mean that by no means is this like skinning. You can definately customize a theme to make it look similar to your own. I outline some of this in the user docs. Basically, copy a theme and start there. You can customize icons, images, css classes. The rules are create the theme by creating a new folder and naming the css file the same as the folder. The structure must also be exactly like that of the other themes. There is no way to get the theme installed except ftp or including it in your module installation (which is too much work and can possibly lead to other issues, so just use ftp). The css files should have some comments as to what most of the classes do.
