We’re all members of one or more forums online today, and we all appreciate a forum that’s easy on the eyes, easy to navigate and just fun to use.. Most if not all BlackHat and Design communities are powered by Vbulletin, or IPB, or even PhpBB, very few are powered by SMF, why? Simple because theyare more popular. Again, why? Well no reason really, SMF is not as widely advertised, but this is some mutual respect from us at SZ to the SMF team, MK has used SMF for several years now, their softwares security is top of the notch, mods are easy to install, so easy it’s a hobby of mine to plug mods into forums, plus there’s thousands.

Themes, this is the thing, some of the most amazingly designed forum skins are for SMF, simple as that, and they are so easy to customize.

Here’s a list of my favorite smf themes, be inspired, be very inspired!

Here’s the first on my list, a Corporate looking theme, extremely professional, well designed, well balanced, colors are great, it’s one of those SMF themes that you can just install and use, it has a large header too, you must check it out! http://demo.padexx.de/smf/index.php?theme=24

Another one of my favorites is this really fresh modern design, brightly colored but not overly so. This SMF theme, is just an awesome design by padexx! Round edges, web2.0 to the max! http://demo.padexx.de/smf/index.php?theme=28

The Smooth SMF theme by padexx has one of the coolest most fun to use navigation menus around, it’s the little things that really make a difference in these themes, check it out for yourself! http://demo.padexx.de/smf/index.php?theme=27

Oh boy, if the Smooth theme was cool, this one just goes beyond coolness. So original, unique to the max, this Lightning SMF theme is one of the most popular online, and rightfully so! http://demo.padexx.de/smf/index.php?theme=22

There are some other crazy designs out there, much like this one http://www.etkiweb.com/dizayn/ but I’d be interested in smf themes you’ve come across and feel are note worthy! Share some, go on!
