Skins

Why don't downloadable skins work for the forums? Like this one - http://black-fusion.com/demo/demo.php?theme=3

And if they do work, how do you get them to?

about the styles all u have to do is to get a style files from a website that offers free styles for the phpbb...then upload the images to a host server for images..like the www.servimg.com

and u already have an account there..use the email u used to create your forum and the password to access that account

Then...after uploading images paste the links of the images one by one to the "logos & pictures " section...then add the colors to the "colors" section

also preview this TOPIC for more information about that

Use the links below, there you will find good stuff for your style

I am downloading some neat things from the "mod database" here:
http://www.phpbb.com/mods/db/index.php?i=browse&mode=group:phpbb&sub=2

I just don't know how to install them into my forum??

So technically, there's no way to do it that is less tedious?
