Hello there,

I've just had a quick look at your site.
The main site has a nice, clean layout. Looks good to me!

However, the banner could do with a little work - the background looks great, except that it's cut off on the right hand side, which is a shame.
The text needs to be sorted out - "Youngistan" is too dark on the left hand side, and gets lost with the background.
Also, the text in the banner is too pixely. It looks really, really bad I'm sorry to say.

I also had a quick look at your forum, which surely must be the biggest forum I've ever come across There seems to be something for everyone!

Again, the logo on your forum is a little pixely - it's not as bad as the other one, but could do with attention.

Otherwise, it all looks good to me, and displays well in Firefox.

The banner destroys the whole good look

With alittle altering it could be much improved. First of all, I wanna commend you on trying to skin PHPizabi. I've tried it myself and its no easy task so I understand the kinda barriers your facing.

The header image (or the banner, whichever you prefer to call it) cuts off half way across the page. If you could re-adjust it to go all the way across the page it would look alittle better. I would also suggest changing the backgroud of the navigation. Green switching to white doesnt blend with the rest of your design, in my opinion. I feel you have the right idea with a gradient but perhaps the execution was alittle lacking. Other than that the main site isnt in bad shape at all.

The only comment I really have on the forum is the header image. Its alittle pixely around the text, if you could fix that it wouldnt look to bad at all.

Hope this helped,
Gregory
