It's a board that covers just about everything. :)

What do you guys think?

P.S. the only posts that guests can see is in the Introductions Forum.

not a fan of the color setup. But i must say this:

For a forum that covers everything you didnt have a forum for everything. Which is a great thing. Nice amount of forums, id keep it that size or smaller until it starts to fill up.

Hi,

This is gonna be very short and sweet (hence the sentances now).

I'm afraid that your style is too dark, and inaccessable to people with any sort of color blindness or visual problems. I strongly recommend an alternative light style.

I've tweaked the colors a bit more. My regular members love the new look so far, what do you guys think?

Ouch, I would change it immediately LOL.

Would someone mind checking out my color scheme now? I've added some gradients to it, and I think it lightens it up nicely.. Thanks!

I still think the colours used are still going to be a problem. The high contrast dark colours with bright cyan text doesn't look great. The text (cyan coloured) is a little blinding.

Going into the threadlist. The colours are really set at a high contrast and I can see people with sight problems won't like the colours used, and to be frank, the colours and gradients really strain my eyes.

I'm not to keen on the colours at all. I would also replace the default stock images and replace them for custom made variants but I would seriously work on the style some more. I'm not a fan of dark styles but I've seen some nice dark themes. Unfortunately, this isn't one of them and I would find it hard that this would appeal to alot of people.

Goodluck with your site regardless. :)

Hey guys. I've since changed my color scheme all together, personally I think it looks great with all the blues.. I was wondering what y'all think?

Honestly, it makes my eyes hurt.. the neon blue is too neon for me... it keeps taking my attention away from the overall content... and again.. it makes my eyes hurt.

I think the logo is too simple. There is not much to make it stand out. Perhaps a background image or alteration of the lettering would help.

The colors bug me. The blues are too bright, distracting from the content. The new post buttons do not seem to fit the style at all, being a different yet bright shade of blue.

The first thing to focus on would be color, as noted above. Tone down the blues a bit...and possible lighten up the background and see how it looks. Once you get that looking good revisit your logo and make it work with your new colors.

As far as forum layout I think you have a good start. There are not too many categories so far and you should be able to expand easily as the community grows.
