    Notepad, or the admincp system.

    Really theres no tutorials or guides, short of maybe template modification found at vBulletin.org. Its all html, and some conditionals.

      I use the online manual as a reference, other styles as motivation and on windows I use ultraedit for syntax highlighting and to work on multiple templates at once. I just copy/paste them after making a backup of the .txt documents first. And I use textmate on the mac as alternative to ultraedit. And I use photoshop for the graphics. Mostly I use trail & error and give things a try and see how it goes.

      I don't recommend to use wysiwyg editors to avoid losing $variables and $vbphrase[things], etc.

        Yes I never edit template with wysiwyg editors. I just copy/paste template to Dreamweaver and make some chandes then again copy/paste to vB.admin template section.
        Does UltraEdit has Design View?
        thanks

          No, because it is a text editor, and not a wysiwyg editor.
