But would you mind if I tried restyling subsilver2 into something that looked better (at the moment, I'm not too fond of it either). Here's some examples: http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/AcidTech+Purple
http://demo.phpbb3styles.net/Serenity

I'll try mixing in some prosilver elements too. The prosilver theme doesn't use tables to format the layout, but rather some weird HTML that I've never seen before, and they're very difficult to manipulate. I'd much prefer using tables. Most importantly, I don't think I can wrap our site menu and logo around the forum if it continues to be prosilver without it being completely messed up due to some of the CSS definitions from the forum.

I can easily recolour Serenity and make my own icons. I'd prefer restyling subsilver2-like themes such as Serenity. I don't hate prosilver. It's just that it's too difficult to customise.

lol now i've been looking at all of them. i like any the acid-tech ones, any of the glossy ones, the blueglows are good but i wish they came in different colors, and aquaglass. serenity is nice, which one would you pick? isn't it very similar to what we're on now?

Just for the time being, I'll use proglass, until I have time to make my own theme. I prefer it over prosilver.
