If I want my portal to have a dif design then the forum what do I need to do?
I mean I have it coded out but don't want to mess up the default portal design so how do I go about making my changes and having it with the look I want w/out affecting the forum design as well?

You'd just need to edit the templates... Most likely the 'adv_portal' template and just be sure to place the $home[rightblocks], $home[centerblocks], and $home[leftblocks] in the proper place.

Just a shot in the dark, but can you use CSS in your template? If so, try this in your pages <head> section:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
background-color: #000000;
}
-->
</style>
