Android forum clone

I am planning to use this forum format theme for my site community-forum.. Anyone knows where should i refer for free tools and design from?

Request expert suggestions pls...

'Free', sorry to say nothing about this site is free.

The forum software plus the custom theme.

What forum software are you planning to use?
Xenforo is modern looking, vbulletin is professional, ipb is clean and sleek.

Dont mean to go against you, but in the end we all know rippers can rip the site.

Being that the theme isnt properly owned legally, people can take it so long as they dont reused the ANdroidforums name.
