I've got a real love/hate thing going on with it, it's absolutely gorgeous and I love the colours (apart from the new post colour, would that be better green?) and the style is absolutely immense, it just doesn't quite feel like Vanilla at times, you know?
Needless to say, I'll almost definately be using it on my site :-)
Mint and Vanilla are without a doubt my most favourite forum styles on the web, it's going to be a real toughie deciding which one I use
I agree with you blizeH... actually I prefer Vanilla's theme. But this theme is just something different I wanted to show the power of Vanilla by creating a real different look, rather then just another style. About the colors, it's just something I copied from Mint. Once the theming is done, I will also create another style which is based on Vanilla's colorscheme.
jazzman this is really good work. I like it little bit more then default theme. But just because my forum users are used to standard phpbb forum layout. Please keep up with good work :D
Thanks for doing it jazzman. You were right. Even if it's not something you like better, it gives other people inspiration and it's dang fun to do
I will say, however, that he font is one to two sizes smaller than I usually like, but other than that, a more vanilla like color scheme would be really nice.
I think the style looks great. I like that it's so different from the original Vanilla, and I like how it shows that Vanilla can pretty easily become a punbb clone.
"Probably not, but PunBB is still an awesome forum, and probably way faster than Vanilla...."
Sounds like mark's set himself a challenge?! ;-)
But in all seriousness, I've honestly not noticed any problems with the speed of Vanilla at all, infact, everyone on our board seems to absolutely love it (even those people who you wouldn't really expect to) and says it runs very quickly for them! Although maybe that's partly down to the awesome hosting at Int0rw3b :-)

Ahem.
I was speaking to Minisweeper earlier, he said he loves the theme to bits, but would prefer it if the blue bits were green.
