Default If can't change colors, what is "Create Theme" for?

Hi there,

I'm *extremely* new to foruming, so I beg your forgiveness if I ask incredibly stupid things.

I'm getting that you really can't mess with the skins (background colors, etc.), but what exactly can you do with the "Create Theme" page (under Styles Admin->Create)? Or, rather, what's the point of this page if you supposedly can't change anything?

I'm trying to decide (before I get sucked in and it's too late) whether to sign up with IPB instead.

Haha, there really is no Point. phpBB put that in there for some odd reason, even though it doesn't have very much use.

I'm not sure, but the new release of phpBB (which your forum will automatically be upgraded to at no cost) may offer additional functionality of this section. However, like I said, I'm not sure.

Thanks for choosing Forumer.com! If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to start a new topic.
