    Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver are being released in Japan on September 12th, 2009. I was planning on releasing this style a day before the release but that means it will coincide with the anniversary of 9/11, don't want that; so this is going to be released on September 10th, 2009. Which gives me 4 days to fix anything, make changes etc. So here it it guys. Constructive criticism is welcomed (and expected?) so I may adjust it to the general liking. And incase you didn't noticed this style was highly inspired by one of the Community's best themes, Forever Standing.

    So guys, what do you think?

    It's making me more excited for HGSS. ='[

    I love the little touches like the Lugia and Ho-Oh silhouettes in the box backgrounds.

    It's all very shiny.

    The only thing, I have to say, I'm not a huge fan of the font used in the header and buttons. It's sort of, different from the vBulletin default font, but not quite different enough to fit, does that make sense? D; Let's see what other people have to say about it though.

    Thumbs up overall. =D

    That font was actually going to be the font used throughout the entire using using the "@font-face" CSS property. But doing that would make the font kind of hard to read so I dropped that idea, but probably might change that.

    I don't care for the Post Reply button.
    It's too bland and it's not shiny like the tcat/thead gradients.
    Have you even tried hovering over the buttons? D;

    I tried hovering, but it's still not shiny, buffer them up a bit so they can really shine!

    XD Nice skin though luke!

    Something about the silver gradients bug me, but this theme is good nonetheless. Maybe the the text should be darker.

    I miss the transparency of the other HGSS themes that have been started and put on hiatus.

    I love the background image on this theme. Perfect. The header is very nice too.

    I still prefer the old post reply buttons. DDD':

    BUT LUKE! I am sooo proud of you. All of your hard work and late nights on this definitely paid off, and I'm almost certain that this will be my third long-standing used theme on PC. I absolutely love the colors and the banner ('specially the placement of Cynda and Chika :ppp). Fantastic job. :]

    Wow very nice style. Now I really have intrest for PC's themes. Between this and Route 167 this wins. I love the tight style and the coloring.

    I should have told you this last night, but it slipped my mind in the midst of conversation, but I think the background would look so much better if it was fixed. I think the second alt color is like... really dark compared to the first.

    I do love the hover feature on the buttons but unfortunatley, I didn't see the old ones so I can't really compare them. Personally, I'm fine with the new reply button.

    Overall, the theme is very impressive. I love the silhouettes in the post backgrounds and those lovely little details that you add to the themes (like always XD). So, great job and I can't wait to use this theme.

    I really like the post reply button effect, but the text looks a bit weird, and if it was more shiny like others said, it would be even better. ;D

    It's a bit too...busy for my tastes...not to say it isn't great. It's obvious that a lot of effort went into it, and it's sure to be a popular theme coinciding with the release of HGSS and everything. :D
