The design is realy cool but I wouldn?t make the bgcolor so dark.
the arrow grafic of "
Fantasy Art Gallery" doesn?t fit into your design
The Closed Forum sign should also match your design
The Reply/New Thread button is to dark as well
The (quick) reply box is much to bright if you want to keep your dark bg
I also would redesign your post icons as well to match your design!
Hope this help
It?s ment as constructive critizism
You did a great job!
