vForums Skin Competition (31st Dec 07 at 10:51pm UTC)
You've seen it at other forum providers, now it's time for vForums to have one! Our skin competition will work a little differently than others, however. Rather than just being made the default skin for the support forum, the 5 winning skins will be default templates for all vForums! What we mean by this, is that when users register for a new forum, there will be a new step added. We will show thumbnails of all 5 skins where the user can choose which of these skins to use as their starting point, or to start from scratch. So, if you want the world [or at least those on vForums] to know how well you can design, get a team together [or do it yourself], and design the best skin you possibly can! If you would like to join the competition, please post below. Be sure to include the names of everyone in your team. Or if you have any questions about the competition then post below or send me a PM and we'll do our best to answer it. Good luck to everyone, and happy new year! RULES Entries Due: To be announced. Extra Codes Allowed: Unlimited, provided they don't lag. Crossbrowser: Must work in FF, IE, and Opera. Entry Judging: Polls Keep it Secret: Please do not tell others which skin you have made, and don't tell others if you know who created a certain skin. This is a skin competition, not a popularity contest about members.

As far as I know, it has to be coded. I will be around in the code requests area if there are any codes that you need! Also, it has to be CB in FF, IE AND Opera.

Posted By Graham on 31st Dec 07 at 11:37pm Is there a closing date? Not yet. We'll see how much interest there is first. Posted By Oracle on 31st Dec 07 at 11:38pm What about codes, can we add extra codes? Yes. There's no limit on the number of codes you can add as they'll proabably be merged/optimised before going live anyway. But so long as they don't create too much lag it shouldn't be an issue.

Doesn't have to be a team, you can be alone!

I'm not good enough to make one alone, but I'm interested in this. If anyone wants to incorporate me into a team, I'd be happy.
