I've purchased XenForo, and still hold roughly 12 licenses to IPB.
Looking around, I have noticed that every XenForo powered site, they all look identical with minor color changes or a few image changes.
Is it difficult to design a great looking theme that does not have the ordinary XenForo style?
Ehren from IPBForumSkins had stated that he may convert some of his skins over to XenForo depending on how difficult it would be to create custom designs that completely do away with the ordinary xenforo theme.
If anyone has a xenforo forum that reaches beyond the current layout/design aspect, I and others would love to see them. Right now, all I am seeing is what I see with vBulletin 4 (No flaming needed as I don't hold a license to vBulletin - simply making an observation), color changes but overall nothing spectacular or innovative like we have seen with vBulletin 3 or the IPB line.
I am aware that we are just now getting into the RC and many skinners are holding off before making any major commitments. However, I would love to see just one skin that shows something remarkably different from the average theme.
Again, please don't take this in any way other than a customer who is interested in seeing what can be done outside the normal layer of design.
