*I Hope this is the right section!)

My friend and I are looking to create a UBB forum. We have spoken to the very helpful people at UBB, and finally understand how to get the domain, software, host and install the forum.

After that comes.... designing it? (That's our first question - is the next step after installation, design?)

The next thing I want to figure out before committing to the process, is how to change the "look" of the forum. What does it actually look like without anything done to it. Does it look like this forum?

How do I go about changing the look, easily? Is there someone I can pay to do this (Design, implement etc.?)

Please help a newbie out - our current home forum has changed for the worse, and we need a new home (hopefully the one we make!)

The look of things comes from the styles, many of us tweak our own and there are some great devs here for hire such as Gizmo. You can view some of his styles here Premium UBB Themes Listing Look on the left and you will see other services he does. James does great work and very professional.

Thanks very much for the information. I really appreciate it. Is the basic forum style, like the one we currently see? Or has this one been altered? (Not sure if you know this info? But it doesn't hurt to ask!)

FYI, I'm in the process of moving servers, so that link Eddie gave you may be intermittent for the evening...
