I've had a mess around with the default skin and changed the colours. I've ran out of time for now so it's unfinished. If you prefer the other style you can switch to it in your User CP.

i've also created a banner, which will do till someone makes a better one

I've changed the colours around a little bit more, and added a background image..hope you like.

It's really good Dix

You should center the logo/banner, would look much better.

I actually thought that the other day while looking at it
Im likely going to have another attempt at improving it in a few days, possibly to a darker theme.

cool, i like dark themes
