good stuff , good work , but those top buttons need to be fixed.

Keyboards, vocals , etc... way too tiny , i think you should make them BIGGER and more PRESENTABLE , other than that, your forum is very neat and easy going.

Good work !!

8.5/10 !

Best Regards

Thanks for the additional feedback, all!

I just finished doing some more tweaking. I redid the navigation along the top for the individual instrument forums, creating buttons and a layout that more closely matched the design meme I'm using on the frontpage.

good work , looks better now , text is still tiny , but i guess the images make up for that.

Good work.

I'm trying to keep the site collapsible sans scrolling down to resolutions of at least 1024x768, as well as preserve space for possible ads or additional links in the future. That's why I've been keeping the buttons up there relatively small.

As you say, Xtrato, the new images should allow folks to easily discern each button link's destination.

Boy oh boy...that's some beautiful site my friend! Love the color scheme and layout...home run so far!

How did you get that skin done the way that you did? I'm brand new (you can see by my site having hardly any changes/alterations from the basic at all) and I could use some tips on layout and design.

Glad you like it, ArnyVee! If you have any questions about how to do something specific that you see in Musicans' Nook, just ask. Most of the customization you see there was done in the header and footer templates only. For the sake of making future upgrades as painless as possible, I avoided doing too much to the other templates aside from a little extra touch here and there (the bit of customization on the postbit template, for instance).

looks very pro and well polished off.I liek the way u have the icons in top right corner in roll over mode.I also like the way you have your footer but best of all your site looks very pro.
