View Full Version : New Site: FREE vBulletin Styles!
Cypher720

Thats right...it has been decided. Snake~Eyes (from Piceljunction.com) and I will be opening a new site dedicated to bringing you FREE vBulletin styles! The site is a long way from finished, so you will have to wait a while!
I am posting this here tbecause i have an offer, and also a request.
Offer:
We possibly need a vB coder and a vB designer
Whatever you are better at, we may want you. This is not a deffinate, but we want to take a look and see how many people are willing to do this, and see what the abilities of you designers and coders are.
Obviously this is not a paying job. BUT...Once we establish a large "client" base, and get our name out and whatnot, and have a nice variety of free designs for download, we will offer pre-made styles also. And if you are still designing for us (i hope you will be), THEN, you will get paid based on the number of sales your designs have.
Request:
Donations
In order to get on our feet off the ground, there are a few things that we will need:
vBulletin License (owned OR leased)
Money for hosting and domain name OR
Free hosting
I know that you guys may be thinking that i am greedy, and do not want to buy this stuff myself, but think about what i will be doing. Releasing completely 100% FREE vBulletin styles for everyone!
Basically, ANYTHING that you can contribute will DEFFINATELY be appreciated. When the site opens up, and you register for the forums, you will be marked as a contributor, and possibly given a special contributors area that will include special stuff (dont ask what yet...i have to think:))
So, thats about it! Please Post here regarding ANY questions about this, and send in those applications!
Please send applications to:
Cypher@Cyphersshack.com
Please include in your applications:
Your name
If you are a coder or designer (which one you are better at for you special people:))
E-mail address
website (if you have one)
Links to your work (vB designs/coding ONLY)
Thanks again!

I must say, you're asking for alot in donations there. You at least need your own licence to get off the ground. Once people see your site and like it I'd say they'd donate. But before anything is created, I highly doubt you'll get what you want.
I may be interested, but I might not have all the time on my hands.

Around $130/year. $260 the first year. Not trying to kill your joy but good luck. Then again one member of my site donated a lot saying that if it weren't for WDF then we would have lost his job.
Best of luck.

yeah, i thought i was asking a lot:)
UPDATE: Hosting is taken care of! Hosting will be supplied for free from d3fuse (mailto:d3fuse@team-suicidal.com). Thank you d3fuse!

That was when WDF was up and kicking. This is before anything was created. Big difference. ;)

i know - but i just made this post, and already have 1GB/50GB bandwidth/10 MySQL/unlimited Subdomains/Doman Name for free:)

14 Jan 2003, 01:22
True, it took me 11 months to get that far :)
The licence still isn't a thing alot of people want to give away. Considering it can be $160 at tops for the owned. (Right?)

People do sell "somewhat used" licenses (i.e., licenses that expire eventually) at about a percentage of the price they should be given the time that's passed. Not as easy to find them though because of the harsh advertising rules at vB.com (come on, not even a tiny bit of text in your signature? :rolleyes: )

14 Jan 2003, 01:31
lol at filbie:)
i know what you are sayin. i hope to get some cash donations so i can at least get a vB license. cause once i have that, the site will be se in terms of needs...then we just have to get a few more designs
Cypher720
14 Jan 2003, 01:32
@ filbie...again - yaxay always has people trying to sell them...lol
If you could get a vB Licence somehow and get a forum up and people like and donate, you can pay yourself back and have more chance of people liking and giving you donations.

14 Jan 2003, 01:39
yeah...worst comes to worst, ill have to buy the license.
ill give it a few days, cause i jsut put this thread up:)
I could help with the site coding if you are going to use vbulletin to power it. i currently have some cool add-on's for kousetsu v4. Ive built a whole download database with 3 extra files and no changes to the vB database.

I would bet I'm bringing up an ancinet thread here, but it's amazing to look around and see the roots of one of the best vB skinning sites just sitting here at vBT.
Cypher, if you're still looking for a bit of help, I'd definitely consider joining up as a staff member!
My work can be found at my site (link in postbit and sig) but oddly enough my site seems to have gone down. I should write a homing beacon program, so I can find out my IP address from somewhere else just by tuning into the beacon.
**** ISP... I paid for a static IP!! :mad: lol

I looked earlier and I realized you were vBpanel!!! This is so funny, because I was anticipating your site. Then when I read vbpanel.com I realized I had already been to it and I finally looked at the dates on these posts. I love your styles, I have used some of them already. Thank you vbpanel team! :)

Oh and yes, you are quite banned.

Well that's good. I hate ppl who pirate Vb's. ;)
I have cleaned this thread up and deleated most of the replys made in the last day. If you have a problem with the way jelsoft dose bussiness then please use vBulletin.com, this is not the place for that.

Hey there,
I'd create a subforum for you on my site.. you'd have to use my domain (obviously) but you can skin it the way you like. Then, once you build up, you can jump to your own site/server. If you did this, I'd give you some hosting too .
