Thread: Vbulletin Experts- Need Vb integration

Looking for someone to integrate Vb to our new site design. We're currently running phpbb, but we're switching to Vb and I need an integration.

Pm me if you are a Vb expert available for this job.

Colleen is a pro at this

Maybe a link to the current site? it sounds like you just need a style made to me?

Looks like I found someone at webhostingtalk who does Vb integrations for $30. If he falls through I'll contact Colleen

P.S. Loco - the site is on my sig

Try to remember you get what you pay for

I'm a firm believer in that philosophy GRIM, but Ive seen samples of his work and it looks good! It is a reputable member as well, lots of positive feedback.

The integration was completed over the weekend, see results here:

What do you guys think? I'm happy w/ results, no customs icons and stuff but well integrated with our design. Next step is to import our old phpbb forum data, we'll be handling that in-house.

Looks good. It's really easy to import the data from phpbb just use impex provided by vBulletin.

It looks real weird how the forum is thinner than the header above it. They should have removed the padding from stylevars.

Is it just me or did the person simply bring your style over a bit into the default theme and edit the headers and footers?

I hate to say it but looks like something even I could do

I agree, and the code is atrocious, a complete mess, looks they included head tags, meta tags, and everything into the body, it's supposed to be declared once and stay above the body.

Thank you for pointing that out, I'll mention it to the coder.

P.S. Is it a simple edit? Maybe you can pm me some details and I can try and fix myself?

Looks like the pay for what you get thing. Honestly go to Colleen next time. She does amazing things with vBulletin or someone who knows what they are doing. It looks okay, but not like it was done by a professional.

Oh well, I got to say it doesn't look good at all.

The thing he did ain't called integration. He just edited the header & footer files and included your code into into. Looks pretty weird and bad to my eyes.

I'd prefer to go to someone who could give me a much better look. If Colleen designed WTF, you can see the amazing quality of work she did.(there are some small tid-bits which someone might not even notice but they look amazing!) Plus as everyone said, you get what you pay for.

It could have been a lot better.

My two cents.
