Hey guys,

Long time since my last review...

I have just made another skin for my forum, but I am keeping this one (depending on your reviews) as a default...

It took me quite some time to make it...

Preview: http://www.wmtforum.com

Your views are greatly appreciated...

Having a custom skin is neat. What follows is just my opinion. ;-)

1. The logo/design is too faint for me. Too understated... it may be my eyes. I recommend darkening the design and text in the skin.

2. The forum "buttons"/icons need to be a bit bolder, also.

Hope it helps and wasn't a disappointment.

I agree with mvisconte, darken the logo.
Also why is the introductions forum called 'My Introduction' if its for your users to intoduce themselves? Shouldnt it jus be called 'Introductions' or something?
Great site otherwise!

Overall I like the design but it was a bit 'busy' looking between the forums/last posts. Maybe a little more separation needed there. Other than that, I like it.

The forum skin seem to be working well layout-wise, etc.

The only issue I see is the blue/dark type against blue backgrounds, which can be very hard to read. (Ex: In the top/main menu, the forum sub-headings, etc.)

And the site name may cause some confusion too.

You have a JavaScript error: "document.all.vbpopup.style is null or not an object". My guess is that your layout doesn't work well with popup blockers.

If you are using regular fonts without effects in your navigation images, why not just type them? It will help load the site faster as well adding ease to adding more links.

I also agree it seems faded, i would make the colors a bit more strong and solid.
Reminds me of easter....

It is also called "Webmaster Talk Forum".... reminds me of another forum i know..
