Hey guys and gals. My name is Ryan, I have been doing design for way to long now and havent touched vB in a pretty long time. As some of you might know I used to own TheDesignWorld.com back in the day, but I ended up selling it (kicking myself in the ass for it now). So this is pretty much why I started up another design community site but a few years later and a lot of more experience.
The forums I did are here:
http://www.gfxsupport.com/forums/
and if you want to check out the GFXsupport site go here:
http://www.gfxsupport.com/ (still working out some kinks)
Lot's of work, keeping me busy way up in my condo swaying in the wind lol.
By the way I mention I love vB???? :p

That style, while not my cup of tea, is incredible. Great work on the design.

Yes the theme is created by me. I originally was going to use phpBB3 but wow that forum sucks!!!
Enjoy the site, tons of content will be coming soon, especially clan templates!

wow that forum sucks!!! How do you figure? Even though their html isn't exactly as semantic as my standards would like, it is still light years ahead of vBulletin, and a million times better to customize / theme.

It just wasn't laid out easily I found. Slow loading too it seemed.

I am working on the basic theme, moreless just the forum part as a skin. Just so users with CRT monitors that are unable to hit large resolutions. Once that is completed I will release the light version for FREE DOWNLOAD here on vb.org
I feel since I had the priveledge to download free mods here I should in return give something back!
So expect the release of the "Lite GFXsupport Theme" to be up here for download within a week.
And well, there is still much more work to do on the theme, so I am going to end this and get back to styling!

The whole page is very dark and so is the text on your menus. Makes it difficult to read.

I am working out the font colors still. Should be 100% soon enough. There isnt enough control over certain fonts though which gets annoying!
I used a dark theme because well my site is a dark style.

Very nice! Looks amazing mate. Once it's all done and open are you taking custom paid requests?

Thanks! I might consider doing custom work if the money is right.

whinging about people not replying to your thread is a sure way to get peoples backs up.
If they decide they want to reply then that is their choice and whinning about it aint doing you no favours.

you'll have to beat me solid if you want that crown Mr King... Boofo is on my side... lol
Edit, sorry, i'm off-topic...
i like the style actually, for a war clan, perfect.
fsbmax, it shows you put a lot of hours on your skin. But still, I will have to comment on it:
IMO, it looks like a Microsoft gaming medieval site. You should use a lot of clean (white) colors instead (flickr style), it eases the read and looks professional. Then, when you post a tutorial, your images will pop and look sharp, they will not be lost in space. The text size is good, I like it (sorry Mert). But the side panel must go, it kills a lot of potential reading space.
You have to think as a 21st century developer:
Less graphics is best, more CSS and predominant white is welcome. The Phong style sites are long time gone, today. You save on bandwidth and leave room for attached images and videos to chew on it.

LOL!!!!! I KNEW ID GET YOU GUYS OUTTA BED LOL
where did 6 year old come from??? lol
i made my post as a joke, i am sorry some of you took it wrong lol
and yes I do agree most forums that are smooth clean colors always tend to look better for reading the content

Maybe because this whole thread is not according to the Community Reviews Guidelines (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/announcement.php?f=14&a=29). Your first post is mostly advertising, you don't even ask for feedback.
Also most of the first replies in this thread are not feedback at all. Going to clean this thread from all off topic post tomorrow.

Marco, i would suggest sparing some efforts, and close the thread so the guy can start over more politely... he insult us from the start because he is too stressed about any reviews...

sorry guys for any wrong doings. im noob here and was joking with what i said above!

if you want to start a professional board, act professionally, not like among friends... that's an advice from the most moronish member on this site ever, so listen to it.

I never said that. :D

But it looks like it is almost impossible to clean this thread and still leave a thread that makes sense.
Going to close this one. Feel free to start a new thread keeping our Community Reviews Guidelines (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/announcement.php?f=14&a=29) in mind.
