video tutorial for what? to create styles? there isn't any video for that, this is something you have to learn by trial and error! I am sure if you search around in phpbb.com there might be some hints on how to clone a style!

Hey like cisc007 said keep trying this works or i wouldnt of posted the edits.I could always make the style complete it post it as style to download, no point its not the way of learning , plug and play so to speak.
Zip the files and let me see the edits.

Edits are fine mate. maybes out of line ,usually coz of copy and paste from code box.But there ok your either missing the images in the theme/images folder or you have not refreshed the template and theme in admin ,and your web browser ............. but you say you have so i cant see whats wrong. PRESS THE REFRESH AND THEME BUTTON IN ADMIN AGAIN AND PURGE THE CACHE .plz

I installed a fresh copy oh phpbb and replaced the normal phpbb prosilver style with the one you helped me create (blue borders ect..)
I have the images in the appropriate folder, I have refreshed the themes and templates, I have also purged the cache, I go to see if it has worked and the all I see is the normal phpbb style and I can only get the one with blue borders up if I click preview and the corners are still square..........
Should I try giving it a new name, if so how would I do it?

make sure the style is active set as default in board settings
yes well if you want to make a style its always good to change the default prosilver name and .cfg files
open these files,
your_style/imageset/imageset.cfg
your_style/template/template.cfg
your_style/theme/theme.cfg
your_style/style.cfg
find in them files:
Replace with:
*TIP
When making a new styles folder dont leave any spaces for eg:
bull dog use
bull_dog.
