nice and clean looks great
I hate cluttered design . It also puts members off because it can make a site hard to navigate but yours looks nice and easy . Good use of colours

1pt larger makes it look bloated... Although I have done an "v1.0 - The easy read" style here.

well, it's really not about you... it's about the tens, hundreds, thousands of other individuals who use the site and have no idea about the

I and many others on the site don't see it as small... I've asked them and they all like the size apart from one user... and I made "The easy read" for him. He is now content.

Aside from the font and what not... what do you like/dislike about the design/site?

Change the grey colour in "Wizard" and "W" to something stronger like orange or yellow etc. but not red because blue and red just don't work.

The font size of block titles are too small.

Also the "welcome to..." graphic could be redesigned - maybe a closeup of an ipod to the right with a few words about the site eg. "iPod Discussion Boards" to the left.

Those few things could boost it up to another level.

I agree, the grey doesn't do justice with it.

Any other color would over power the rest of the site. It's staying grey for now but I will think about it for future updates.

I've done a bit of work, tablesless css on most of the table headers and footers, completely redesigned the header, darkend the tables footers, darkend the blue used, changed the shadows on the table footers at the sides. v1.0.1

Tell me what you think.
