vBulletin Design

[MYnameke]

Hello everybody.
I wish to start to design some vBulletin but my problem/question is that I have to buy the vBulletin or I can download it from somewhere and redesign it. I`m very interested in your opinions. Thanks guys.

I visited the site and I think you have to buy it.

I think you should check the site. Admin demo is available, but if you want to download the full script you have to do it from members area, in which you have to be Customer.

This is the page to check: http://www.vbulletin.com/order/

Yeah . But I wish only to redisign it and not to use it on the net. I think somebody will know a method how to use it free for design.

Afraid there is no way, you just have to have a license even for a test board.

[hwang]

Sorry about that. Why order it just for making a design??
Anyway, you probably will find a way to get the license and make your design.

I wish to test myself at this stage of design. Finally thanks for replys and probably I will buy the license for it. Good bye

You must be earning good

Cuz spending $85/$160 for just making styles is not a play

Anyways, Best of luck!

There's a small solution.

Go to Webmaster Forums and there are many people selling vBulletin licenses that they no longer need. You can get some for about $40 each. (Yearly Ones)

I don't think its too much if your going to be selling the templates, you will make a lot more back.

The only way you will get a license is if you get it from someone else, which obviously isn't allowed

If someone does give you their license it connects to vbulletin automatically to check the license login when you install (If your online) and this will get the person you get it from in trouble, very likely that their license will be terminated.

Romanos has a good suggestion of buying one, but I don't think they allow you to transfer leased licenses now.
