Hi everyone, I'm building my first myBB forum and i'm having trouble finding a theme that fits the needs/wants that I have. I'm hoping that someone here might be able to give me some theme recommendations as to what you think might work for what I'm looking for. I've done lots of looking here and around the web and have found a couple but for one reason or another they won't work for me.

Here are some of my requirements/wants in a theme:
(Prefer = I'd like to have this feature)

Sidebar - Right side
Responsive (Prefer)
Latest/Recent posts widget/link/tab (Prefer)
Bar above forums list with customizable messages (Prefer)
Xenforo or vBulletin type layout (Maybe)
Clean looking
Banner ad spot in the top somewhere (Prefer)
Widget to place ad on right sidebar (Maybe)


Any recommendations will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance to all who reply!
Sidebar - You can do this, basic html/css.
Responsive - Hard to find, there's a few premium themes that are responsive.
Latest/Recent post widget/link/tab - Plugin.
Bar above forums list with customizable messages - Plugin or basic html/css, you can do this.
Xenforo or vBulletin type layout - That's a bit complicated...
Clean looking - Depends on what you call "clean"
Banner ad spot in the top somewhere - You can do that.
Wdiget to place ad on right sidebar - Again, you can do that.

Check the tutorials forum and browse a bit on internet, is quite easy to make a sidebar and put content there Toungue.
