Advice needed on my site/forum design!

[Kohhal]

Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.

The colour scheme does go well with a watersports page but I'm having problems getting the whole { firstaltcolor } / { secondaltcolor } thing to look right. I had it with blue/white but the contrast between them was too much to I switched to to grey/white for now but I'm not happy. It's too bland right now, any suggestions on that?

Admittedly, a lot of the styles around are for techy sites and so don't apply in this case, simple seems to work much better, but right now my forums need something to give them that bit of quality

I've split the categories since and dropped the Mod column as suggested and it does look better, I don't see a problem with the Off image though Dexter?

As for the navbar, yep, I need to decide what to do with the forum buttons, just can't decide what. Should I go with the same as the main nav menu with a second row for forum buttons in the same style or move the buttons elsewhere maybe?

My brain is melting with this right now :hurt:
