Creating a new layout/style.....

[Bullseye]

I was wondering if anyone could help me with creating a new forum layout style, preferably based on the prosilver style, I'm new to phpbb coding and would like to learn more and is there a way I can preview it as I'm creating a new custom style.


Thanks in advance.

ps. have I posted this in the correct place?

Its a dog forum, about Bull Breeds, but at the moment I can't do anything with it as far as new mods go as its a 'freeforum' however I will be upgrading in the future, I just want to give it a try first before I spend any money..

Here's the link:

hes on a free forum i bet u can only change the look of it can you even get to your database?


i would never use a free forum again, if you want to move or you grow to big for a free you going have to start from the beginning again and hope your members follow you,

i'm paying 250 a year and 15 for my domain it's worth because you will have all the power if you not happy u and your members can go else where
