Can anyone comment on www.writersbeat.com ? Thanks!

Seems a bit squashed, no cellspacing? =/

The scheme is decent though.

Any advice to make it better?

Agree that it looks a bit squashed but the cell spacing is not different than on other VB boards. Perhaps it's the darker colour with the lighter colour or the smaller post icons that's promoting the squashed illusion.

I agree with Tony -- it does seem a bit "squashed".

- increase the cellpadding and cellspacing
- increase the width of the left column
- remove one of the LOGIN tables from the portal page
- move your "Welcome message" under the navbar
- remove the quote below the "Welcome message" -- it looks out of place
- if you are going to use bbcode on portal, such as CODE/HTML/PHP, decrease it's width
- move the ACTIVE USERS table back to it's original location

What's up with the color combination? Are you trying to set a mood? What mood is that?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
