FP?

Any forum software will require CSS/HTML knowledge to change the appearance of...sure, you'll be able to change buttons and images, but the majority of skinning work is knowing CSS and HTML...

I don't know css though.. thats the prob. Are there any WYSIWYG editors for css?

Well, you can still get around forum templates without knowing CSS, but it would simply help out.

SMF is probably what I would recommend if your only concern is skinning. It is by far the simplest that I know of...IPB and vB have more powerful systems, but their templates are also more complicated....If skinning is only one concern of many and money is not an issue, you should definitely consider IPB and vB

My recommendation. if you are about to do something with skins then SMF is at the top according to my experience of my usage. All other forum softwares are different than SMF as it is the most easiest in use.

There is no type of WYSIWYG editor for it though? I'm totally useless with its code. All I want to do is add a simple banner lol.

I'm using SMF GTACE.

I would like my banner to be the same height but extend across the top aligned with the forum table...
Also. I want the background colour to be a creamy white to differentiate from the forum table background... I don't like the original grey

The best free one is PHPBB and the best paid is VBulletin

That is what I just came up with. When this is put into the forum it looks really good. What do you think?

lol I can make the banner. Sorry for getting our wires crossed. I just want the tables sorted out so it won't do weird things like it is on the current forum

I am using phpBB ... The best for me. I know how to make the themes look unique, I know how to install mods, I have finaly tamed the beast :D

A very good script is VB (at least that's what people say). Its price makes me keep on using phpBB, since I have time, but not money. I don't like IPB or at least I couldn't mod it as I wished. I like to change the headers entirely, mod the tables and so on .. so far only phpBB has given me the best solution.
