Overall I'm not to keen on the style.

At first glance the logo needs to be more prominant. Usually, This will be the first thing visitors will look at and I would suggest that you make the logo more prominant. I noticed it falls short (width wise), maybe have it expanding to the full width of the forum? maybe. In anycase, a re-design of the logo is defenitely required.

The nav menu looks nice, it would look better if expanded and possibly the text replaced for some kind of image base and then the icons implemented upon the base. It looks a little crammed and could do with some spacing. I would personally remove the tables.

This could be down to preference but the scanlines/patterns inside the gradients aren't something I would implement. I find when scrolling scanlines seem to play tricks on your eyes and enduce (well for me) a trip to the toilet.

I would also keep the text sizes consistent. For example, the introduce forum text looks to large and viewing the rest the text in each forum is large and the forum text underneath is small which seems to repeat itself throughout. Giving the forum a little consistency would hurt and the text (for me) really throws everything off.

It's not a great look but I'd be lieing if I said it looked great. Looking at the whole style a 30 minute overhaul of the areas I mentioned would give things a nice turn for the better and at the same time give the style the consistency that it's lacking.

I would also replace the vb stock images with custom variations. I would suggest that you take a look at the vb.org graphic database, there's plenty of good stuff there that would compliment your style if you don't mind using other peoples creations.

Goodluck with your forum.
