Hey! :D

I just completed customizing my forum:
Groundmilitary.com (http://groundmilitary.com)

I tried to make it resemble my main website, here:
Armored Vehicles (http://armour.ws)

I know it's not 100% exactly like my site, but at least it's similar! :P

Another vB4 with just a few stylevar modifications. *yawn*

The header of your vBulletin should be identical to the one on your Wordpress so the navigation and design is consistent across the entire site. Another hour or two of work and you should have it perfect, don't stop now!

Also, since the sidebar on your homepage and content pages is on the right side, when you go into the forums and it's on the left, it screws with the usability. I would move your forum sidebar to the right side and customize your skin a bit more.

Just my two cents, all constructive criticism of course. Good luck!

Hey,

I took your comments to heart. I still haven't finished, but I made a few more modifications to the header and moved the sidebar! :)

Hmm, both sites are mine. I just used two different domains!

Sorry, what? This a feedback forum, right? - i.e. to gather ideas, suggestions, and REVIEWS. When I posted this thread, I didn't want to make anymore changes. However, I've updated the header a little more now.

Thank you for your opinion. :rolleyes:

Don't listen to him. There is nothing wrong with posting for suggestions, feedback good or bad -- You took what one of them said to heart and improved your design. That was the whole intention of this thread and the main intentions of this forum

Keep making your site(s) unique so that they stand out from other vBulletin boards/sites.
