As you know nexy (no, I'm not your friend) I just can't be bothered to spell your name. I'm primarly reviewing your site from a visual stance I couldn't care less about any modifications you have installed.

I'll start with the header, I like the character I think it's nicely drawn and conveys this small part of the header nicely. However, I'm not so keen on the text to the left... I would have personally made the text a little more prominent with vines/stems weaving in and out of the letters (not to many that it clutters the text).

On to the login box by the header. I like the curved area you have going on in the left side of the login panel so why not continue this and have it curved on the right? Stopping dead in it's tracks the stright edge looks a little incomplete and would look so much better with a curved edge on the right hand side.

Overall, I quite like the style (not keen on the alt1 & alt2 areas though I'm almost positive better suited colours could have been picked in this part. With regards to the collapse icons, everyone knows that the icons are there whether a member wants to expand the forum and/or collapse it the use of text is just too much overkill and makes the icon area look far to big more than it really needs to be.

Personally, I think a nice vibrant deep green would look visually more appealing for the tcats followed (possibly, not definetely) look nice with either a yellowish or black thead gradient or better still combine and intergrate the two areas giving off a seamless appearance so they look like they are one. In my head it looks visually great actually doing it could prove more difficult but defientely possible as i did it to one of my other styles.

Change the last post icons, afterall, it's the index page it's the first page visitors will visit and being a webmaster for nearon 20 years I would have expected a fully custom style with zero default vbulletin stock on one of your styles. Not to mention light green and other variations of green look hideous when vb default blue lies alongside it.

Another suggestion, If your going to use prefixes ensure that you refrain from colouring the text blue. Blue and green don't suit each other unless your either colour blind or plain blind.

I'm not to sure about the threadmarkers.... Red? maybe I'm just viewing the few threadmarkers in this area but they don't compliment the style nor the theme.

With regards to the button set, I'm not that keen on them ( my own personal preference) I would have went for a vibrant green with black highlights and possibly intergrate icons that would compliment the theme and a way to break the style out a little.

There you go, call it tough love nexy though I'm sure you'll benefit from some of the suggestions I put forth. perhaps not. It has potnetial which is one thing i will say.
