Where is the format to this forum produced?

Surfing the web, I've seen the exact same format for quite a few sites' forums. Are they produced by a singal company, or did the format just catch on spontaneously? I guess I should be asking where the layout came from.

Wasn't sure which forum to place it in, so I placed it here.

PHPBB is one of the most popular boards because:

(I've done all these things, so I know)
1. It's very easy to set up.
2. It's very easy to administer.
3. It's very easy to mod.

The only real disadvantage is that without some technical knowledge your PHPBB will look like everyone else's and it's pretty taxing on the MySQL server.

Ok. I just never knew that format was used elsewhere, right down to the same graphics and colors.

There's the copyright notice at the bottom of the page on all these sites. :wink: Of course, I prefer Invision, but that's just me.
