MyBB Community Forums

About 75% finished. I'm not an accomplished coder either >_>
That said i like my first theme okay. It isn't done, I don't think those buttons will be in the final release. This theme does not use any elements from other themes, only the good 'ol classic MyBB theme. I like the classic MyBB theme, and i didn't try to edit the templates much. This theme won't really take advantage of the jQuery effects available, but will and does take full advantage of CSS3, to the best of my abilities
How can i improve the theme? Please let me know ~

Way too much red bro. Background and container background is okay, but the forumbit should no way be red.

Hm... Let me see what i can do

Changed, not necessarily fixed. please check the latest screenshot.

I would suggest to remove underlining from hyperlinks. Other then that, good job.

I will do that.

My site stopped working, so I'll need to fix that before i do anything.

Suggestions for improvement? What element do you think don't look good? And yes, I try to cater to the largest crowd possible. Even the Windows 98 users.

Make the header/footer more interesting and change images (I can see the expand/collapse images are default) and you'll have a pretty nice theme. Right now it's really quite unimaginative because the header looks so boring as it's like the default!

Might wanna change the images as they have white around them.

Thanks for the advice! I'll look into changing the header. @GFXDot since the latest screenshot I have added various "white" (#eaeaea) elements, but I agree entirely with your suggestion!

As a test, i added whit around everything
As for the header, I'm going to study a couple themes before i decide how to make it it look.
