I really don't like the fact that you try to pass that off as your site. It is blatantly a style (one that I am very familiar with - two acctually).

Anywho... let me tell you that your site composes of about 2, maybe 3 colors. Ok, fair play - but the colors you have chosen (grey, bluish grey, a little red) DO NOT work well together at all.

Do you have a logo in there anywhere?

What is that flashing pen thing in that corner? Get rid of it!

Why is everything so small and crammed in, yet spaced out?

Can I suggest, you start again:
- first, choose a nice color style which you think will work well, and won't look like a rip off of almost every other tacky forum out there (silver/blueish-gray)
- secondly choose everything you think needs to be there and lay it out nicely, and kindly. You don't need a main menu AND a board menu for instance, combine it into one.
- thirdly remove any logo that isn't yours and put yours in there somewhere. If you don't have one, put in text or anything.
- next, remove anything that says how little users you have, untill you have a substantial amount.
- last - remove anything that flashes.

When you have done all that, come back to us.

(PS: I get to your site, and my eyes involuntarilly blur, that is because everything is the same shade. You need cool tones (blues and blacks) and warm tones (reds and yellows) to create a nice interesting site. You can't just have it all amost the same tone. Also you can't have two different styles in your webpage)

Do you have a logo in there anywhere? Logo contest!

What is that flashing pen thing in that corner? Get rid of it! I'm having a banner contest

I don't understand some of what you're saying. 2 different styles? And thank you for the review, but the review was kinda harsh. Aw well, I guess I'll try again but I am not going to start over again thankyouverymuch.

P.S: I asked you to review my forum. You only reviewed how it looked. Can you review the actual categories and stuff? Like how well I organized it or how horribly I organized it? Thanks!

Oh, wow, lots of work needed. The forum looks like it is a completely different style. Everything matches but then your forum is completely different from the site. You are going to have to get a skin that matches.
