I decided to play around with the resources already used on MG's front page for the Halloween theme. There's only slight modifications needed, such as cutting the happy Halloween text into its own image for the right logo, and removing the borders from the glossy image. There's no reason to not port the Halloween theme over. The only possible issue? The ever-so-fancy new post/no unread posts icons have a slight border around them to match the coloring of the current forum design.

So yeah, it's something that aside from a couple of icons, is incredibly easy to do.

I'm not so sure about this. It'd be pretty spooky. I'm not sure my canine heart can handle it

it shouldnt be that hard really but you'd have to make a new phpbb3 theme (or edit a current one which you probably shouldn't)

I've always had issues with manipulating the logo position, mainly because of how this skin is laid out. Were you able to get that example image to work without manipulating the page styles too much? My main issue with this sort of thing is having to temporarily modify files, swapping a logo is quick but restyling the header is something I want to be more careful with

I simply swapped out URLs for image sources, that was it.
