Your theme is too overused. There's no problem with using it, but you should customize it, so it's unique from the thousand other forums that use it.

OK. I really like the theme though. Are there any you would recommend to replace it?

Well you can keep it, and then customize it to make it more original. If not, maybe get a custom theme or premium theme? Paid are better than free. Toungue

There are plenty of beautiful themes available for between 15-25$ from various designers.. you don't need to be rich.

I'd recommend searching the mod section here for free themes.. if you want your forum to be consistent with the look of the rest of your site then you'll need to customize the default theme to match. There are quite a few people who can do that for you at a reasonable price including myself.. some charge more than others and some will give you a better result.. so I suggest you shop around if you choose to go that route (which I would recommend.. any site that doesn't keep consistancy b/w pages doesn't come across well)

No. The forum looks like a completely seperate site.
