People think that if it is on the net it is free, and that pisses me off to no end.

Anyways, I plan to do some changes to the design later, but the design is not my strenght, it's the content that makes my site. I'd rather spend more time producing quality content than changing the design. I have only done it insofar as it makes the site more "usable".

And don't worry, the users to my site have a small to nil chance of finding another forum with that skin. And if they do I don't mind, I have never claimed the design was mine.

And I am sorry it came like this

As a web designer I review sites on a daily basis. i have a lot of members in my forums or others who just come with a stock template for their site or a forum skin I just saw in tens of places and ask for a review. And I aften go ballistic since most didn't do ANYTHING else but install a stock theme and they want a review. What to review? I always ask them

Your forums are well put together and it looks like your programming skills are not to be underestimated at all. We are a bit different since I can install hacks and mod the script, but my main skill is with the colours and design. And since I always go nuts when seeing stock themes I spend a serious deal of time trying to have something unique.

I apologise again for the sentences that sounded that harsh. I look forward to see the new things you'll do to the forums. I'm sure they'll develop a lot as far as features and looks are concerned. And in some of the modding issues, I think I'll have to learn a lot from you
