Making a new MyBB theme - Suggestions? - Livewire - 2017-01-20

I'm currently making a new MyBB theme which will be General/Webmaster related. I've never made any themes in the past, so I'm going to give that a try.
I'll also post screenshots and updates from time to time.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Smile

Flat or Material scheme is doing well these days. Since MyBB is not responsive by default, even that could add charm to your theme.

Not a huge fan of material themes but yes I am planning to do a flat one not too simple or anything. I've already started making the theme I'll upload 1-2 previews in few days.

Another trend is for icon fonts instead of images.

It started out small until Google started pushing it forward. It's simple and clean.

Not a bad choice of design but if you want someone to thank for it I'm sure Google has shed the most light on it.
