 Where to go about learning to code vB skins?
Hi,
I decided it's time to learn how to code vB skins, yet I don't own a license nor i know where i could find tutorials. Where do people generally learn how to code vB? Does vB site provide tutorials to those who are members?

Well coding is coding. No matter if it's a layout or a vB skin...
Am I incorrect anyone?

Yeah you are incorrect. You have to learn how to code it with vBulletin's functions and what not

Yeah, coding a vB skin means coding it in html and then implementing it into vB  And since i dont have a template i have no idea how i could learn how to code vB skins.

As i am a IPB Coder not a VB Coder i wouldnt know how to go about coding a VB Skin, im sure it will have some simalarities. CSS and HTML are required to learn, i suggest you try skinning off the backbone of the default skin.

Yeah... I guess I would have to do that. I know Css and html already so thats not a problem. I just want to learn how to modify how stuff look, etc...

If I was going to design a vB skin, I'd look around at other skins, and see what features are common through each (such as post bit, users online, latest posts, forum list, login box, menu) and then design a design implimenting those features. Then I'd work vB around this design, instead of trying to design the design into vB.
