VBulletin is Making Me Crazy!

I've installed two vbulletin skins, some people see one others see the other, and most people see broken images... I've been messing with this stupid looking forum for weeks now, it's makin' me crazy!

.. any pointers?

Really depends on where the skins come from. I get quite a few broken images here, an example URL is:

Code:

img src="images/styles/silverwhite/statusicon/forum_old.gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_65" />

Which means it's try to find the image located at:

Code:

http://www.4flush.com/online-poker/images/styles/silverwhite/statusicon/forum_old.gif

Which doesn't exist. The main problem appears to be the path to most of the images is trying to load the images using relative paths instead of absolute paths. The images need to use the full http://www.whatever.com/ absolute path. You need to find what's causing the image paths to go sour and relative and that should fix most of everything.

You should pay for a designer to do a custom skin that integrates with your site. Will probably run you around $500 for design, but will look way better. The colours now are very tough on the eyes.
