[TYPO3] vbulletin & typo3 integration

[Antonio Willybiro]

Hi again,



Sorry but I have one more question,



I want my Vbulletin to really look like part of the page and have my Typo3 
menu on the left side of the forums.

What would be the best way to achieve this? Just making a static HTML 
template with my T3 navigation menu on it or is there a better way to marry 
the two?



Regards,

Antonio
