SMF Forum Theme

**snowgoose** · 10-22-2007, 03:53 AM

im in the process of making / creating an automotive forum using smf software, and i was just wondering if anyone would be willing to try and make a custom theme? Or if anyone can point me to someone who would be up for it?

Sorry but this will have to be made for free all i can offer in return is a link back to a site of thier choice.

I highly doubt someone is going to be able to take the time to create a full custom theme for just a few links.

Thats a TON of work.

I highly doubt that someone will do a unique SMF forum theme for just a back link when they might not actually get anything out of it because your forum may not become a success. Although you may find someone that will do this but it wont be a really nice looking one.

You'll be better off with a free design, where there are allot of nice looking themes for SMF, and you can edit them as you wish to fit your needs. Google should show up some good results and i've already done a search for you so click here

Or alternatively you can head over to SMF's website where they have a nice selection of SMF skins over 300.

Good luck

I heavily modified an SMF theme to get my forum's template. Trust me, it's an experience I don't intend on trying again any time soon.

It's really tricky to get a coder for SMF because most of the people who feel like using SMF have a $0 budget, and therefore there is no demand to hire coders. Because of that lack of demand, there are no coders willing to create an SMF theme.

Your best bet is to do it yourself.

I just found a new website with allot of very nice designs and they are free, when i found them i thought you had to pay for them.

I would really recommend These..
