this is part of what I've come up with so far, it's far from done and the upper half will be flash animated (above the blocks, entire header)... I just need to slice it up (i know how to do) accordingly and find out how to make it into a theme. The same goes with the forum... once I have a design, I don't know how to incorporate it into a bbs.
