Okay, a review update. On the bright side, it does seem you've changed the style from default, which is a good start (I can't really comment on style quality, I'll let someone else comment on that), but there are a few things that might be a bit silly and shouldn't really be there.
First of all, please for the love of... get rid of that flashing fake PM icon link. I've seen it at least ten forums, and it's pretty annoying actually, and rather mean from a user point of view.
Secondly, top stats, this day in history? What do you honestly need these for right now? They're taking up a decent bit of space that could be the actual content. Finally, it does seem you've gone a bit overboard as a whole with the add ons. It's starting to remind me a lot of another forum I saw around here (Bashy's Place?), with everything and the kitchen sink added in, even the somewhat non relevant stuff. For example, why does a general forum need a live support feature and icon? And what's with the absolutely HUGE feature set linked in layer after layer of menus, half of which likely isn't being used? It's good to make your forum unique, but do you really need all this stuff?
