Default Mischief Society (updated)

Looking for a review on my gaming site, http://www.mischiefsociety.com/

Any constructive criticism would be great. I'm also looking for suggestions on how to make the homepage (portal) a little more interesting and dynamic...

I'm not an avid fan of darks styles so I'll try to push my personal grievance towards dark styles aside.

As a guest, I can't view any kind of logo on the forum. I'm not to sure whether members only can view the logo upon registration but if that was the case I would allow gusts to view the logo. If by the off chance you don't have any kind of logo I would add on so members are greeted with any forums signature image.

Well, at a first glance I like the style and the grey scale theme you have adopted. Coulours complement one another nicely, and visually, a really nice looking theme. the .tcat gradient's add to that visually experience with textures breaking out the theme in a good way.

However, there are some areas I think could be improved. The navbar links should sit on a gradient possibly with a lowered opacity textured gradient so the links in the navbar are easier to read.

Also I noticed towards the bottom your still using the vbulletin birthday icon. For me, this looks terrible and even more so placed onto a dark background because the white shows up even more on dark styles. Mayve add(in the same style as the other icons) some beer mugs or something so consistency still plays a big part in your theme.

Trivial that it may be, find some time to replace the navbits_finallink.gif Icon. Somehow the image doesn't do this style any justice and it looks visually poor compared to the image which resides above it.

Overall, nice theme and goodluck. :up:

Thanks for the review. I didnt even notice the navbits image was miscolored or that the birthday icon was made for a light background. Fixed both of those right away!

As for a logo, we havent decided on anything. We dont want anything too big going across the top, as we dont like to have to scroll down too much to see the content. Perhaps we'll just come up with a small navbits_start logo...

Updated a few things, and added some nice rotating content thanks to This Mod


Looking for any other comments, keep'm comin!

Yeah just the one on the main block on the left. I'll probably add one in the login box to the top right.
