MyBB Community Forums

Firstly, I am a big newbie at making MyBB themes...

I am developing an in-house theme for a new forum project I want to start. I plan to change the structure of the theme over time. But right now, I am just looking for opinions on the color schemes I am using...

Do you all feel it is too red? I like the idea of red but does it hurt your eyes? Does it need to be darker, lighter, etc. etc. ?

EDIT: Guess it would help if I let guests see it lol

Yeah, the lightness of the red is making it pop more then usual. Maybe darkening the red a bit or changing the background to a light black pattern.
