Probably blasphemous but... Vbulletin 4 skin?

As in the title, it's probably not the right thing to ask for, but for those of us who want to convert a site from a more or less VB4 default style to Xenforo that looks very similar so not to alienate our users - is there such a thing as a VB4 default style for XF?

BLASPHEMY!

Here's a vb4 xf style: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/qapla-com-vb4-default-fluid-and-fixed.490/

You can also show the forum descriptions like vb: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/show-forum-description.14971/

The chances of you alienating your users over something as trivial as a style are pretty slim.

Sure, if XenForo's style was pink with red spots, then maybe.

Try and make them adjust. Sure, some will moan about this and that. But they'll learn to love it.

Most of my members questions / requests weren't actually about the style. The requests were actually very small. They wanted a what's new as a main menu item. Something like an online users ribbon. And the "who's viewing" a forum. All of which were easy to add if I chose.

Also if you look at xenique.com templates their framework allows you to put the "what's going on" at the bottom of the page instead of sidebar.

Thanks Eric. Will see if I can modify it
