Can we shorten it to

<div style="background:silver">
{$lang->powered_by} <a href="http://mybb.com/" target="_blank" style="color:silver">MyBB{$mybbversion}</a>
</div>

note the colors of div and anchor

What I mean is, Does mybb only needs backlink ?

EDIT: oops, no. It must be visible.

Minimum Copyright
MyBB is licenced under the LGPL and therefore users may remove the MyBB copyright and credit notice from the footer of their forum, however those who choose to do so are ineligible for support on the community forums.

To receive support users must display at the very least the following "powered by" notice on every page of their forum:

Powered by MyBB.
The text must contain a link to http://www.mybb.com, an image of the text is acceptable however it must still link to http://www.mybb.com.

If your theme does not already carry the powered by message it can be added by going into your admin control panel > Templates & Styles > Templates > *Select template* > Footer templates > Footer and then adding the following code:

Powered by <a href="http://www.mybb.com" target="_blank">MyBB</a>.
Users that are found to violate this rule will be denied support temporarily (for the first offense) until rectified, or permanently for repeated offenders.

Background silver and font silver, no. It needs to be visible.

This actually.

If we make it silver then it should be invisible.

Does it can be like this?

<div style="background:green">
<a href="http://mybb.com" target="_blank" style="color:red"> MyBB </a>

Omitted " powered by "

If you make it invisible you won't get support.
