I really like the skin. The colors work for me. The only gripe I have is, where is your logo? You need to have a logo. Maybe you are working on that and just havent put it up yet. But people need to put an image with a name. We are visual learners. We retain information better if it is given to us visually. Anyways the only other thing I could say is that you should also have a site that goes with this forum in the future. Maybe you are workin on that too. But you should have a site to back up the forum even if the forum is your stronghold. This allows users to find other static content.
Overall good job, I like it.

wow that is blue, looks like a template but at least it looks like a good template.

overall looks good but maybe a contrasting colour would work

4/10

yes like someone previously said you do need a logo, and you should also try to make a website along with this forum.

In my opinion i dont' really like the colors it makes some words look blurry if your screen isn't that great but again that's just my opinion

I'd have to agree with the above: you don't have a graphic with the name of the site or a logo. At the very least you should display the name of the forum at the top of the page. Without it the page looks like an application in progress. Overall it looks fine, though. It's very dark, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. 8)

I like the overall layout and color scheme, but some details still need polishing up:
- The toolbar's text is too hard to read.
- Why are 2 login sections stacked on top of each other? Isn't that redundant?
- The top login section takes too much space.
- "User Groups" section returns parse error.
- Top and bottom orange-stripe blocks seem redundant to me.

I like the template for the forum. You just need people to join.

- the blue template looks good, but dark
- I'd suggest put there some icons for menu items
- Also, I'd try to add there some more cold colors.

That is bloody good design, quite alot of detail in the design, its awsome. I like the fact that you have sticked to one color but, it does kind of repeat itself, mayeb introduce another color. (I would suggest a dark orange)

But otherwise that is very good, still cant get of the amount of detail.

I particularly agree that you need a title and logo graphic urgently.

Also in firefox the padding of the forum column's cells is non-existent - whereas the pics/text in the Icon Topics and Posts columns are all nice and vertically centered. I'd fix that in the interests of professionalism :)
