Assuming you are now in the
Advanced Forum CSS & Table-style Settings

and you're scrolled down to
CSS code (this is the actual code)

If you want to create your own unique forum,
Just remember that lines .c1, .c2, and .cp are most important.
So, if you only toggle those 3 lines,
this can change the entire "look" of your forum.
(So, replace XXXXXX with a 6-digit number.
(and, of course,
remove the words "Topics", "Messages And Body" "The Comment Box"

.cb{background-color:#9d9d9d}
.chd{background-color:#7a7789;font-family:arial;font-weight:bold;color:#ffffff}
.c1{background-color:#xxxxxx} Topics
.c2{background-color:#xxxxxx} Messages AND Body
.cp{background-color:#xxxxxx} The Comment Box
.va{color:#000099;font-style:italic;font-weight:bolder}
.vu{font-style:italic;font-weight:bold}
.ttm{font-size:9pt}

SOOO.
In short, you simply alter those 3 important lines.
And, replace it with a 6-digit number of your choice.

.cb{background-color:#9d9d9d}
.chd{background-color:#7a7789;font-family:arial;font-weight:bold;color:#ffffff}
.c1{background-color:#xxxxxx} Topics
.c2{background-color:#xxxxxx} Messages AND Body
(choose a lighter color)
.cp{background-color:#xxxxxx} The Comment Box
.va{color:#000099;font-style:italic;font-weight:bolder}
.vu{font-style:italic;font-weight:bold}
.ttm{font-size:9pt}

You may change all the colors, if desired.
But, these 3 lines are the bulk of physical changes.

Of course, if you want to choose a dark color,
such as Dark blue, or black;
you will probably need to completely change the Word schemes.
