I'm hoping several of us can get a conversation started here about how to create and edit YaBB 2.x templates and themes with Adobe/Macromedia's Dreamweaver.  Ideally with as many people contributing as possible, some of a tutorial can be compiled... and eventually be added to the YaBB Codex.

If you have any experience using Dreamweaver to create and edit templates & themes for YaBB 2.x... please post your how-to's, hints, tips and tricks!

Let's create some additional looks for YaBB!

Hi T3rrabug,

Agreed, more often than not it's easier to do things by hand. 

Problem is though... many peops don't want to learn how to code by hand... no interest, no time, no ability even if they wanted to.  Some people want to work with what they are comfortable with... "and the hell with the code".  Others still write their own DW rules for templating to their needs (latest version of DW supports templating for Movable Type now, would be great to see this type of DW support for Y2.x).

There are some who would rather switch their scripting applications rather than having to do everything by hand.  There are many more novices who want ready-made solutions than there are people interested in coding for their individual needs.

My idea here is to address that.  Hopefully YaBB'ers like yourself and others who have experience with Dreamweaver can collaborate on some useful suggestions, techniques, tips & tricks to template YaBB with it.
