You seem to be extremely negative about a forum that's actually rather well designed in my opinion. However, there are a few improvements you could make:

1. Remove the white from around the forum icons. It just does not look right and shows up badly against the background.

2. Change some of the basic forum icons. They have annoying white backgrounds.

Apart from that, I have no major comments. Most of your site seems more customised than most are anyway.

Agreed. I changed the forum_new and old. It looks much better now.

I've never been a fan of dark themed styles but I do like what you have done to the style (I see you've altered it a little) which I have to say, looks nice.

There are a few little grievances I have and correcting the suggestions I put forth will enduce that visual experience to you and your members.

Firstly, Correct the matting problem on the forum Icons. In this state the forum status icons are showing white jaggy matte around them. As this is a stock image or an image you acquired from the internet I would suggest loading the image in a graphics editor (photoshop if you have it) and use the Pen Tool to crop around the edging of the bike just so it removes the white matte.

I also think (personal preference) that the Lastpost content would look better left aligned rather than it being centered. Personally, I would move it to the right of the threads & posts area so it gives off a sense of balance to the index page.

I'm being really picky here (only because I like the modifications that you did to this style) is that you should design some custom reputation icons as the default vbulletin stock (whilst might look okay) they do have white matting on the corners.

Overall, good work on bring your own touch to your style. :up:

Still a minor problem with the white around the edges. You should either replace or make transparent/change the matting around this image:

cheat-master30: Thank you. I must have forgot one. LOL

Shelly: Thank you for your comments. However I can't for the life of me figure out where the option is to change that is(Lastpost location and centering). Would that have to be code change in the forumdisplay (index) page ?
