Absolutely stunning!

Not necessarily. jQuery code is quite compact. And, if you do the HTML, I can always help to patch in the jQuery bits.

Why don't we open a GIT project for this theme? We can always move the main repository later once we all understand GIT a bit better.

its been a great forum to use over the years, but for us mere mortals, a little more 'higher level' howto's would really help.
Is there any *we* can help at all? testing releases even, if you have test plans we could follow....even maybe write?
More howto's would indeed be great. Instead of complaining, why don't we all write one or two? If we do, we will soon enough have a bunch of them.
I'm not aware of any test plans, it would be great if you can maybe start working on one?
After all, FUDforum belongs to all of us and everyone is free to contribute to it.

So, how should a 2011 design look like?

The current templates are relying too heavily on HTML tables, it would be great of your design can either be table-less or at least use it sparingly...

The whole idea behind keeping the poster info above the post is to maximize screen usage and to keep the layout modular.It is quite hard to design for dynamic content, you have to put thought into every piece, why it is there, etc...

Lirodon, I trust you are making good progress with the new theme.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

I like it! We can introduce a new postbit as part of the default template set (ts), or as a skeleton ts similar to the current "user_info_left" and "user_info_right".
The current templates are relying too heavily on HTML tables, it would be great of your design can either be table-less or at least use it sparingly.
The "time ago" functionality can be introduced with jQuery. I was thinking of introducing it into the next release myself.
How do we proceed?

That's music to my ears.
We use FUDforum because it's the most powerful, but it definitely not the prettiest forum around.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
