Its very nice work mate, makes the forum look much better than in your default style. I like the Options colum on the forum home you have. Tell me is that the work of a vB hack i could find on here! ;)

Nice work, keep it going! :)

Not a hack, a template modification. The administrator on my forums has posted it here: http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mods/showthread.php?s=&threadid=597

Thanks for the comments. I changed the forums default (and website too) to the grey style. :)

i must say that looks pretty good, except that logo, thats the only problem i have with it, the options bar is a nice touch as well

the colors are nice (gray style) DarkJim but im not a big fan of the forum border images... yeah it is different but it looks ;\ just doesn't seem like it goes together well... but the small icon buttons are nice too :) regards...

Logo and site do not have a throughline. THere is no element from the logo that matches teh rest of the forum to it. (Color is usually used).

Too much info on the the top. What will happen as you grow is there will be a long list of who's browsing that takes up half the page.

Events belong up top.

Layout theory: you should be able to join the fun by loading into a size window (i.e. non full screened) in 1024x 768 resolution, and be able to click on the most busy forum.

Cater to your audience. The Entrance Hall is for newbies, you dont get many of those, or those comments vs general chit chat.... That should be on top because thats where the experienced people are to answer questions anyway.

Lack of alternating colors makes it hard for the eye to follow.
