I am looking for a decent design but cant find any, any help would really be appreciated.

I am new to building a forum or anything on the web basically, i would appreciate any input or advice on how to get the forum going.

Now just SHOOT at me what i have to do.

cool logo, i would use the cornered square from it to create the forum-icons...

your forum is really basic still, so there is not really a thing to review..

You should categorise your forums better, they're all mashed together on one uncategorised list at the moment. Maybe have a teams forum with sub forums for each team. The logo doesn't fit in with the site's content, it's not football'y at all. Same for the skin too, but from what you've said you already know that :)

Thanks guys fo your input.

Beav' , yeah i know its uncategorized yet, i still got to work on them. but my problem is that i cant make more categories on the forum as it looks empty the way it is now and making team categories would only make it look emptier.

My worry is also about how to make this forum work. I have invested in it from the start and i am trying my best to keep it alive, i have a competition with $1000 woth of prizes but still no one seems want to join.

The header looks like a work in progress. The overall view looks anaemic and needs some "warmth" injecting into it (maybe experiment with background and alternating colours).
Course, football forums are a massively competitive business and you also need lots of luck but here in your case EPL football is a very specialised field where most football fans like one-stop shopping.

At first glance, it looks a little generic to me for a football (not soccer you americans) orientated site. However, looking closer, it still looks a little too generic to be a football orientated forum with only the mediocre looking logo to say it's a football site.

Jazz the logo a little. Implement images, images of a higher quality so the logo stands out.

The red and black otherwise okay don't really fit the style of a footballers theme. I would suggest in adding icons and buttons that give off a football theme. If it's directed at just one club then possibly use that teams colours if not go for something neutral.

Arsenal fan hey? I predict Man utd win 3-1 tomorrow to hand over the league title or keep it with us. :)

yeah you guys are right, but i am already above my budget. Once i get the forum to get active and members joining, then i can afford to get a proper highly customised vbulletin skin.

This is the best i could afford at the moment, paying for vb and vbseo licenses and hosting.

I only hope i will manage to get it work.

Man Utd will lose tomorrow and they will have to get their last point in their last game of the season.
