Mitch - sorry for the delay. The main forums page is a "news post". It's just a posting. But what I did is filled that posting with all the links, manually. It works out very nicely and it means it's 100% customizable.
I'm still looking for a light green, springy theme! It just seems like a HUGE amount of work to figure out how to change everything to the right hue, so if someone else has done it already, I would love to see it. I like the "texture" in this light blue but it feels very "icy" and cold to me. I'd like something a little warmer and welcoming for our forums.
Maybe once I get this 7.3 upgrade fully done I'll work on that
