Default Working on a new style for iPodWizard.net

I'm trying to go for the clean,simple and vibrant look, but I don't want to go too simple or vibrant. Still need to do something cool in the header too.

Also something else that should be of note, I'm going to "experiment" with the layout a bit more when it comes to coding; try and get something a little more unique than standard vB.

I like it but I don't like the postbit_legacy. I use postbit. But it looks good to me. I'll look forward to when you get it up and running.

I'm a fan of legacy but I'll be giving the "new" style a look when it comes to coding.

Well that's kind of the point. When you update your sites style do you completely change everything?

And it's good to see people like it so far .

I dunno, it looks poorly made if you ask me. The grey background and mix of colors you use doesn't create an ipod feeling for me. Also the fonts are bad and also don't compliment the feeling of a ipod. I think you should use plastic white and blue buttons, with a white background (similar to the apple.com website).

If I wanted to copy the Apple website I would have... but wheres the innovation in that? (I'm also not a great fan of it... bit boring aint it?).

Ah well, I understand what you mean but I don't agree. Don't you think being all white and plasticy is a bit :ermm: ... yeah. Color is fun, don't be afraid of it!

You think the fonts are bad? Which ones... I don't see whats wrong with tahoma and myriad apple (the one that is used in the iPod ads).

I do understand that it's a very simple design though, but that was the aim. Also, a white background would be blinding.

I <3 the homepage. It's smooth and flows well together. I also like the forum page too. I'm not sure about the thread view, it's unique, and I think I'd need to see a live demo of it to form an actual opinion. Other then that, Great Job!
