*Poke, Poke!*

I know that I am beating a dead horse, but it just wont stop moving!  I made a template for phpBB before I understood what php was!  I only knew html.  I had a template done in three days or so.  That was a long time only because I was messing with php stuff, trying to figure out how far I could push it, not knowing php.  I was able to do it though.  I think that phpBB uses a Smarty type system to manage templates.  It is easy to understand and even people that don't know php can use it.  [b]rthrash[/b] I don't have any clue what you just went on about.  It seemed like you were pushing your template or something.  But I have not seen the results.  Drop your pants and let us all get a look!

I will keep on saying this until the day I die!  Why do things the wrong way?!  Down the road, will it need to be re-done?  Why not do it the right way now?  There are so many people that try to make the world fit into their ways of doing things, when there are perfectly great ways of doing it that will benifit us all!  I could be black, white, asian, male, female or that ugly fat guy with a strange laugh that drinks grape pop at the take-out pizza place!  There is a way to build it that we can all benifit from.  Lets find it and make the other E-com programs want to be like this one?
