I need to understand PHP better before I do something new.

Been working on the profile page today. It's a real beauty, you will see. A shame I can't code it.  :'(

Just a little bit. I can read and unterstand the most of the code, but I don't have the knowledge and skills to write this theme.

lol, the hard part is the CSS and HTML. PHP is easy compared to CSS. Now, I'm not at all sure about what you want to do with Javascript, so that might be different.

Neither is "easy" - its just what you spent most time with, they are all languages.

Now, design is a whole other matter. Using graphic previews is actually the best way to work with themes as it makes your creative side work for you, not your logic. Though you need a certain skill in the handling the graphic program...

Very nice design preview for elkarte btw. :)

This can be done with adding few lines of css code:

Think in the emergence of the theme that it is also visible clear in the mobile view.
