Your header is very nice, but those navbar buttons look very out of place. I don't know what effect you wanted there, but it isn't working. =/

I also don't see the point of having 'Latest Topics' ON the forumhome page. On a portal, yeah, but when they're on the forum, all they have to do is click on 'View New Posts' and that page is individualised from their last visit. A much more useable feature there. To me, it just takes up too much room. =/

Otherwise very nice. Like your images.

Looks good and clean. The "Featured car" clickable image keeps taking me back to the forum home.

They've got a few nice styles over there. How long did it take you to receive your order? And did you have to convert much language?

I prefer your 'vision_expanded' style although I think you should name it 'vision_800'
colors :up:
style :up:

1) replace the header buttons
2) remove the "log in" block (portal page) -- you already have one
3) the 'featured car' block dropdown links doesn't work

I'd reduce the width. 1024 is too large.

I'll do that

What do you think I need to replace them with? Just regular vb dropdowns?

good idea

I need to finish that

I added a directory from vba:

I actually like the latest topics on the side. I think it encourages others to post. I had it when I was using vBa 1 and lost them with v2. I think I'll just wait until vB 3.5 is official.
