I haven't ever taken any courses.

I'm including random books and guides in that ;)

No books, no guides :p

Yay! I get to feel so much more useful.

And I even know how to start conversation here ;)

So, know any php?

No, unfortunately not. If I could figure how to get it working on my Linux box, I might give it a try though.

Basicly, I have a machine that is dedicated to the purpose of running a phpBB for style development (and vB too, if the lite version can do styles), but I can't seem to get it to work. I have Red Hat Linux 6.x and can reinstall as many times as necessary (time permitting) to get to work.

You know anything about that?

Correct me if I sound like a moron but isn't most of phpBB styles just images? I know you have to edit some other files for the basic color scheme.. well I don't know :)

To get an idea of the scale of changes I'd like to make, go to www.realmofconfusion.com, register, and choose the style "Formhault Style Test" in your profile. Note that it hardly looks like the standard phpBB anymore (though it is still a style in progress). And if you think that putting the graphic behind everything was simple, think again. The templates were never designed to do anything like that.

Now do you see?
