I want my forum design to look like this one
with the side bar
shout box
the birthday acknowledgement on the bottom

help!!!

this entire design looks great to me

See "Forum Design & Integraton" forum, do a search for "sidebar", you'll see a few posts, the one by me includes 2 looks: Left Only sidebar, Right Only sidebar, Left and Right sidebar; all set through header/footer inserts through the style settings.

As for the birthday layout and all the other "modifications" they are done through modifing the forum, see the "modifications" forum, the "birthday" acknowledgement is a part of the Calendar modification.

Might I also sugguest the SpellCheck modification for users like me

The instructions for that is in the install instructions for the calendar

I just would like to know
how to include it on my forum
on the bottom
