How can I get my hands on that points+shop?

How can I get my hands on that points+shop?

We use:

http://xenforo.com/community/resources/ice-shop.904/

And:

http://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-banking.536/ for the points

They're both very limited add-on's to an extent, xfrocks says there's an update in the making for the banking but it's not to where he's happy with yet.

As for the shop we had to rip out the guts and recode some of the page, I had to add in conditionals for the icons(it doesn't support html in descriptions), also I had to home bake some categories that's not supported either.

EDIT: On a side note-

Our users LOVE this setup, gives them extra motivation to post good content(we set points awarded at a minimum amount of characters) and we love it too , a lot of fun.

That is a really cool looking site and I'm a crabby old b--ch don't praise easily on site design.
Congrats.

An innovative design for a forum site, looks fabulous! After a quick look, there is only one thing that, if I were you, I would like to change as soon as I can(maybe it is just me) - the background color for the bar contains the "Like x 2' etc., to me, that dark background color is just a little too much contrast to the light background color for the text in discussion. I thought the content in discussion shall be more important than the Likes etc., but the background color for the Likes made the Likes more prominent than the text in discussion.

 

[Russ]

Thanks for the feedback Vicki , we've been hard at work with our new version of the site, we're going with a little more modern look with less images so that design that's on there now probably won't be getting any updates , but I agree it could use that suggestion

I personally go for a more minimalist look in my designs, but it looks very nice. LOVE what you've done there. Good integration, nice colors, looks like a gaming site. Nicee ....

Liking what you've done. Feels fresher, lighter and easy on the eye (not that there was anything wrong with the previous style) I prefer the cleaner look in 2.0. Excellent work Russ.

Yep I'm not happy with it either but removing it made it a pain to navigate with a ipad for me. Probably going to revamp the nav soon to be honest.
