I did originally intend this site to be a show piece for my Orion and phpBB Skins/Templates as i have been skinning variations of Orion since about 2004 starting with OrionXL. Orion then went to OrionNG and i converted all the original skins available:

As my knowledge of Orion skins started to improve and i gained confidence in the use of the css file i wanted to be a little more creative, so i started to Convert phpBB skins to Orion and my biggest venture was the conversion of "whatisreal" by GraphicMD which took me 5 days of file editing, using the top and bottom table edits from the original skin (that took me a few hours to sort) along with the images, i then merged the 2 css files, "whatisreal" into a basic "fisubsilver" at that time to complete the conversion.

As i gained in confidence because the "whatisreal" conversion was received with so much praise, i then went on to create a few variations shown here, my OrionNG Demo Site.

Now i make skins from the base cback orion skin, adding my own Made or Modified graphics. Here you can see the skins i have either made or converted to the present Orion Version - Orion v2.*.*

I will freely admit when it comes to scripting i am a novice, so any snipets of code i found, that i found usefull i made a copy of and edited with what little knowledge i have till i got something close to what i wanted.

So - as i kept finding snippets of code etc. for php, html and java i thought, what about building a site with all this interesting information and snippets i found to help other people that are new to Web Design and Skinning (Template Making). So here is the results of many hours scouring the NET for the code snippets and information i needed.

Off Course - None of this would be possible without the support of my wife, who has been very understanding of my passion for skin making and coding..                               I THINK !
