I'll go ahead and give your site a review if you don't mind, however I'm not a professional or vbulletin.org reviewer/person.

This is what I think:

I like the colors you've used. Gray and Green is an odd combination but it's honestly fresh as I haven't seen it in a long time. I looked at your new post icons and such and was confused as to why they were just lil circles but I realized that they were matching with the theme so I was ok with that. I would have preferred bullets or something more geared towards your audience, as I like things with themes to them.

You must be using vbadvanced due to the way your front page is laid out. I honestly don't like the front page of your site and I think that is your weakest point. I mean, you offer one article on the front page, and the rest of it looks like it's geared solely towards the forum. I prefer websites that cater to both people that are forum goers as well as those who are just viewers, lurkers, or readers. In short, I think you should at least have a portal page or something to set people up and give your site more depth than just a forum with a page with forum stats and extras everywhere on it.

I think you could use some different themes or styles to spice up the site a bit, but it's fine for right now. Giving people at least 2 additional options obviously pleases members more with a bit of change every now and then.

I think the forum has good depth and isn't too long or too short with too many or too few topics. It's just right.

The other thing I would recommend to change or alter a bit is your welcome/please register notice. It's too long or too big, IMO. I'm glad your using it and I hope you've received good results but that blends in so well and its so big that it didn't keep my attention. I would recommend coloring it in a darker green with white text, or something else to draw your attention to it and read it.

I dunno, I think I'll give you a 7/10, you're on your way but there are a few things you can alter to improve.
