Default World Literature Forum

I'd just like any thoughts on World Literature Forum and if anyone can help with getting the very bottom black bar to fit in place, I'd be most grateful.

I dig it. You might want to use a background image (like the dark blue one here) to make the white of your forum table "pop" a bit more. Also, change that registration text into an image - it's a lot better for SEO.

Pardon the cheesy photoshop, but something like this:

I just wanted to say thanks again, Chris-777. I made gradient (going the other way) and uploaded it and, aside from one little white patch I can't quite work out how to get rid of, it looks great and really does, as you say, bring out the white portion of the forum.

I change the registration text to an image too, as suggested.

Template looks like when the internet was first released to the public...
Change your look, it's too old looking and makes the site look dead.

Er, no. I won't change the look. If it looks old then that's good because it's meant to be peaceful and reflective. I don't quite understand what you mean by it looks dead when it's plain to see by the regular postings and daily visits of some members that it's rather active for a young forum.

The most members online over 24 hours was 18. Really active.

I like the book looking theme, just go a bit web 2.0. (No glossy crap, though!)

Honestly that's one of the things I like best about the style. There are plenty of uber-modern looking skins out there right now, it's refreshing to see one that looks like a comfortable, worn-in old paperback.

i think you had really done justice with the domain-name. It really feels like a community for reader of literature. I really liked the color schemes as well. is definitely unique.
