Guest | | Re: Mage Designs v4 (3rd Nov 08 at 11:27pm UTC) | | The biggest problem I have with the skin is that its not overly dynamic. I think if you're going to have a design forum, you should really go all out, incorporating innovative methods and an electrifying skin. And it should be made to express yourself as much as possible. That's really what should separate your design forum from any others. However, the images you have incorporated into the main page are good and interesting. And the colors match pretty well.
As for the content, I don't have any complaints. It seems like you have all the variables needed as long as you are able to keep the sections active.
5/10. I just don't see enough innovation in this design forum. I think that if i were looking for a design forum, I wouldn't be impressed by the skin enough to join and ask for the services. | |

pmwww | | Re: Mage Designs v4 (3rd Nov 08 at 11:55pm UTC) | | What do you mean overly dynamic?
I can only do so much, the UBBC and Smiley's I can't really do, unless I take them from some one else's forums, but that would be called steeling, and I really do not want to do that 
I am looking for a Designer though that would be willing to help me out.
Thanks for your rate. | |

Guest | | Re: Mage Designs v4 (4th Nov 08 at 5:52am UTC) | | By dynamic i mean truly innovative. I just think that design forums are there because the designer has something to offer that you just can't get anywhere else. And I'm not really seeing an example of it.
And when you say you can't get UBBC and smileys, do you mean that you can't change them? | |

And yes I can't change the colors on them, I try, I even did what they said in the Graphics board here on VFs, and I could not do it, even with PhotoShop CS2  | |

How come you did not say that to vForums Advertising? It's all the same design besides the color?
The one on vForums Advertising is called "DuoTone Purple" The one on Mage Designs is (DuoTone Brown) Thats what Paint Shop Pro 9 calls it.
