    There's a download option against the skin you've chosen, so first download the skin to your PC. Then go into your forum and select the Admin>Styles>Choose Your Styles>Management. You can then use the Browse button in the Import Your Theme box to upload the skin you've just got from your chosen website. Make sure you've got the correct version, BB2 or BB3 set depedning on your skin/theme.

    he was just saying yeah as to "that is what he wants to know too"...get it?

    But I could understand how his remark was considered spam as it was one word...

    Apologies nai kiba, I hadn't bothered downloading the theme to see what it's content was. Having now checked it though, it's not configured properly for Forumotion use as there's no .bbtheme file which is the file extension required for the upload. There is a CSS sheet in the file though and that would be used in the CSS Stylesheet box (see below). As for the rest, you'd need to host the images and edit these to suit your preferred theme.

    There is a section where you can play with temporary themes without altering your forum. Look in Styles>Temporary Theme (you'll find CSS stylesheet in here too). You can set up to 3 temporary themes that allow you time to set as you'd like before commiting it to your forum.

    Well, in future let the staff decide what's considered as spam and what is not. That means, please don't moderate others nai kiba. Wink

    The rest should be answered now with the previous post - the import function only allows themes in .bbtheme format.
