It looks good. One thing I'm noticing, though, is that various descriptive text seems to be kind of a mess; I'm talking about punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and run-on sentences.
For instance, this, which is to the right of your header . . .

Those are sort of confusing to read. I'm normally not too much of a grammar nazi, but these blocks of text feature very prominently at the top of your site, so I think it would be a good idea if they were on-the-nose correct and easy to read.
Oh, don't forget to add a custom favicon. This is one of the most neglected things, especially on vBulletin forums. It drives me nuts to see a forum that the owner obviously put a lot of time and effort into, yet there is that default vB logo favicon sitting up there in the address bar. In your case, a favicon that reflects your status icons would look nice, I think.
Good luck with the forum!
