How do I setup a Homepage like this? vbadvance

ForumGarden - Home

How can I create something similar within vbulletin? Sorry about all the questions lately, I'm learning...very slowly.

Mike you're right! It looks like my forum is going to have a home page later tonight (currently goes to root directory). And it's free!
