It's a little tough to explain but the key is to login to your AdminCP and start playing around with the various templates.... I to this day haven't found a complete skinning tutorial as the VB template system isn't the easiest or best documented.

Your first point of start is to check the VB Manual for the section on Styles & Templates. It's not very helpful but it's a start.

Next start trying to make simple changes like changing the logo, moving things around.

The key to the templates is learning which parts do what... Most are named appropriately and you can turn on template comments in VB General Options. This means when you do a view source in your browser you'll be able to see the template name for where that HTML/CSS code is generated. Thus allowing you to open that template and making a change.

Sorry can't be of more help but if you have specific questions I'd be happy to answer them.

Thanks bro.......i will start today reading that Vb mannual.....if have any doubt 'll post to u :D
