:) dear CAdTutor! i am very much impressed by your web site! the way it looks, the way it works! i am trying to create a forum for one of the architecture colleges in india.

however, hard i try! it does not look same. that means. the mast head where tabs like FAQ, search, Memberlist etc. are composed, and small great looking icons which say, file manager, statistics, cadtutor home are very well organised in your web site.

Do i need to have some programming skills (may be a silly question)?

Where can i learn these skills? :?

I am desperate to learn these!

have a look at www.cansnashik.com/forum

i dont want it like this. :wink:

Help!

What you have there is a standard install of phpBB. I have spent quite a lot of time making this forum look the way it does. You will need to spend a little while working out how the various php, template, language and html files work together in order to do what I've done.

I recommend that you have a look at the phpBB user forum and pick up some tricks there.

The main file you need to look at to change the page head links/menus is /templates/subSilver/overall_header.tpl - this file also contains all the CSS definitions, so you can modify colour etc.
