Nice, it has a good earthy feel to it.

Bigwrenn

BTW- I noticed that your gradients are a little off. It seems that when the gradient color was made it wasn't straight up and down. If i'm wrong in assuming this, then I apologize. Either way it's a nice site.

I like it very much.

However, like was noted, the gradient and the left header edge is cut and a bit flaway.

Interesting premise for a site. ^^

The header seems off on the right side in FireFox 0.9

Design-wise I'm not overly keen. But the one thing you can congratulate yourself on is I clicked that link at the top without reading your description. And instantly I knew what your site was about. So many sites these days have little description for the user when they first arrive, about what the site is about. Best of luck with your site !

Don't exactly like the scheme, but it does match with your concept, which is very original. Much easier to get your forum to thrive is there is minimal "competition"

Thanks for those points.

Anyone else care to take a fresh look after some more customization?

I still haven't address some of the minor display issues, images and gradients etc.

But have done some interesting things like the self learning WIKI...
