A Music Forum I made

Overdrive!

Text on the menu needs work. And maybe add a gradient to the banner

but this is the best looking vForum out there

Good job on it!

looks good..

few suggestions:

1) Remove the side table, it doesn't fit well there...
2) change the colour of the admin username
3) remove yourself as a mod of the board!
4) Rollover on the menu buttons
5) Custom images are needed (icons etc..)

Only suggestion I have is to put more on the left of the forums. Right now it looks a bit...off.

Other than that, amazing work.

wow looks really nice
i have to agree with everyone on the sidebar though, add more or remove it

^ Basically that.

Also have hover link over the ' Search Board | New Thread' links.

Thanks for rates I'm planning on adding a couple more things to the side area, just haven't got to it yet.

The menu is images so the best thing with css is put an alpha on em

Use alpha then!

Use alpha then!

Alpha = IE only.

nuh uh, there's a FF alternative!

what about Safari and Netscape

it works with those too I think..

Transparent?

What? O.o

I could be picky and say that it's not the first music forum as mine is, but mine has headed towards more of a test board than anything

As previously suggested, the left hand tables don't look right to me though the rest of the design looks good! Ned to get some posts in the boards though, to get rid of those "0 Posts"

Also: what's the name of the font you used for the banner, i really like that

The site's look is good but a few suggestions:

* The side menu really needs to go or be fixed soon =P I suggest you change the width so it doesn't take up so much room on the screen when you do add more to it, for looks if nothign else. Remember, if you don't really need the side menu get rid of it.
* The colour scheme is slick and good looking, but the red admin colour is a bit too bright compared to the green and with the green it just screams christmas. You could make it a bit less bright or make it a paler red, or just choose another colour xD.
* All images should be replaced by custom images. If you don't have the ability to upload them then I'll shut-up, but if you can't make them request it =).
* On that [^] note the stars really need to be mroe to the theme or modern, how about treble-clefs or something? Or a staff in different colours x).

Overall I liek the look, and sorry for rambling -_-

Like I said, I don't have internet so I can't do much but post right now

Did you mean Arial, or there is actually one named Arail?

I ment Arial

I'll rate this after MM is disabled.

Hello ,

My first thought when looking at your forum is that you have rather large menu buttons. I like them, they're great, but I think that you could have made the text a bit larger. The text is very small, and given that your menu buttons are large, it looks a little awkward. I like the font that you used, though, and the rollovers are nice - subtle, yet noticeable.

The banner is nice, though there isn't anything overly special that draws me in. I can barely notice the vertical lines that you have on it, and the gray surrounding the text isn't much more noticeable. I do like the width of the banner, though.

Since it is currently in maintenance mode, I cannot rate the boards, though I do like the color scheme that you have going on. The white text looks good against the black gradient, and I like how the boards have a slight gradient effect to them.

I'm not personally a fan of the HTML menus on the side as I don't like how the boards are no longer center, though I can see why you have them there.

Overall, you have a very nice forum. Once it's out of maintenance mode, I would love to rate the rest of it.

Can I suggest to a moderator to lock this thread? The forum is in maintenance mode, and I do not think it is best to rate a forum that has been in this mode for an extended period of time.
