I've never been a big fan of gallery images before the meat and potatoes of the forum. I've always been of the mind that the good stuff?the forum and its postings that people come for?should be as much "above the fold" as possible.

Various icons are still the vB defaults, despite using a custom skin. The ones that jump out at me right away are the whos_online, stats, subforum and the forum link icons. There might be more hanging about. That's the fault of whoever designed the theme. It's a good enough looking design, but it always screams amateur! or maybe lazy! whenever I see certain graphics neglected.

The curve_x.gif images don't properly blend into the white background (the images on either side of the sendmessage.php and login boxes at the top).

I'm not big on any top stats addons such as what you have at the bottom of the page. I've always thought them useless and added unnecessary clutter and resource consumption. That's a personal preference, though.

Despite the above, which is really just nitpicking, the forum seems to be well-trafficked and quite a success. Congratulations!

Thanks for the feedback, I might not have the theme imported and updated properly, I'll check it out.

I did a survey and it seems that no one uses the top stats feature anyhow! Thanks for helping to verify what I was already thinking.

Great idea! I'll work on that during the week, I do that for my corporate gig, don't know why I didn't think about if for this.
