I have taken the BlueSkool template and have converted it to a template that I had created for Mambo, it has been totally recoded to work on Wordpress. If you liked the BlueSkool Theme you can download it at the authors site Antidote.com, if you like this theme contact me and I can give you the converted pages and images. Use at your own risk and no PSD files are included.
This took a total of 20 hours to convert, wordpress code is similar to Mambo, but there are several pages that need to be recoded, with Mambo there is only one page to modify. I recoded all the pages, added too or modified the CSS file and created my own images using Photoshop CS3.
With Mambo you have one php file, one xml file, one css file and images to deal with. With Wordpress I had to recode seven php files, the css file, and images. Mambo is not really software for Blogging, it is a Content Management System CMS, it is used as a complete website with a lot of horse power, you have the ability to do anything with Mambo, where as Wordpress is designed for Blogging.
Why did it take 20 hours, lol, I kept changing and adding to it. I forgot to add the RSS feed link and then decided I wanted images instead of links. Then I decided to add images to the sidebar headers. Then I figured out how to display the Archives yearly instead of the default monthly. It takes a little longer when you have NO experience with the software, a little learning curve, lol. All in all I think it looks good, but now I am thinking about converting it to a blue design, three column theme i also made for Mambo pictured below:

If anyone cares to comment let me know what you think of this current design or if you think the blue design would look better.

I have a Gaming Arcade here: MikesComputerInfoArcade which has 400+ members so far and free to play, register for all the features like saving your high score. This arcade has over 2000+ games installed.
I have had my Forum up for a long time and nobody uses it, so I installed a Gaming Arcade to the Forum. The only difference between the two arcades is that with the Forum Arcade you can setup Tournaments. If you register you get all the features, like posting your high score, favorites, setup Tournaments, etc. I have 1100 games install , I will be installing more games regularly, installing one at a time, lol.
Post a comment on the Arcades.
