Would like some constructive critisism

Edit: Attachment removed. Theme made available on my forums. Go to forums.thegaminguniverse.net.

This theme which I took some pics from will be the default theme for my board after I made the site in the same style. An admin and member on my forums created it. You can see the pictures in the 5 attachments. The logo to go with the theme would be only it needs a little fixing to look better on the background. I will tell when the theme is available (not for download though :lick: ) but for now please tell me what you think.

Nice icos but the gradients are way to visible and bright

[Dark Jim]

You think so? Hmm...

Anyway I decided to make it available on the forums now and do the website later, here it is: forums.thegaminguniverse.net

Hmm that logo needs a little more adjusting.

I like the logo, Maybe a few tv scan lines using a channels pattern would spruce it up.

Or try some pt 6 pixel text placed randomly around it. To give it a techno feel. Remeber to tone down the opacity though

I really like these forums, I was wondering how you do the cell right, cell left and centered text variation with category headers, im way to scared to alter the code on my own, apart from the postibit, thats just plain simple :P I Think maybe altering the category heads to a less intense blue to go with that smooth purple background is a good idea

I would also be interested in affiliating if your a game site, get in touch
Also, i like the idea of the options column, how would i acheive something similar? Perhaps i will vary it to show whos browsing it

I think it looks great. Hate the light blue though. My only negative towards it.

[proxyMX]

Yeah,

[Dark Jim]

I'll show this thread to the admin who made this theme.

[Overlord]

Hmm... I'm the Admin who made this theme

So nice to have some constructive criticism instead of people saying "that sucks" so the light blue seems to be the only bad point? I might think on toning that down later.

The categories were a fairly simple hack if you know how to use tables right.

The Options column was simple too, you need to edit your "forumhome" templates, namely your level1_nopost and level1_post templates, it's simple enough to add an extra table cell in there and move all relevant links in there. I could post the modifications in the templates forum if you'd like.

Thanks for your opinions.

[proxyMX]

Yes pwease
And could you tell me how you done the categories head too ?

[Overlord]

Ok, posted the Options Column Hack HERE As for the categories, I used the category images hack over at vBulletinTemplates, I think it's pretty much the best one and universal. So I can't really take credit for that
