vb design question

[David Stokes]

i'm just wondering if anyone has any tips for designing a skin,

I can do the design part, but not the coding,,, would people buy them uncoded

People do indeed buy them uncoded although there is a significant price diffirence. A good non-coded sells for 125ish as apposed to the same skin can sell for 250 coded...Some skins sell for 500-100 custom...Infact I'm probbaly going to have someone set me up a private account so I can start learning to code...Goodluck!

i never knew they could sell for that much,,

I'm going to do a few test runs and post them here so people can tell me how i'm doing,,


Maybe if you find out how to code them you would share

From what I hear, it's pretty much html...and you learn it by trial and error...so you have to access to some VB account to learn it...

Coding forum templates is surprisingly straight forward. vB's coders did a great job of commenting pretty much everything, and there are a tonne of tutorials you can use if need be. One of the easiest ways to start is to take a template that has the same sort of layout as yours and start rummaging through the code and seeing how they did it.

Yah that's true, I like your cynical portoflio...One thing though on the splash pgae, the patterns dont line up

That's what I get for whipping up a portfolio in about 10 minutes for this site...
