So just joined and instantly it looks like the website has the following issues:

  • Background image is stretched or just poor resolution
  • Top left link menu uses a font that isn't clean

Image

Should be an easy fix though.


edit: as of posting this, I notice that the actual forum space on the page is very limited by width. That should probably be set wider.

Could the admins also please change the fact, that you see the thread name (or RE: Threadname) above every post, please? When scrolling through the messages I only see the thread name, but the actual posts are very hard to read. Because their color is similar to the background, while the thread name color is brighter --> maybe it should be the other way around. Or make the actual post text white or anything else more readable.

Here is an example from another thread, where no one has an avatar and just replies with short sentences. Your eyes only focus on the thread names, instead of the content.

One more thing: On the forum start page you see the overview over all categories. Next to them you see the number of topics and posts and the the last reply/post. In the last reply/post you only see who posted the last comment, but you can't see in which thread it was. Please add the thread name here :)

Why don't you keep the old forum template http://archives.nostalrius.org/ ?

He is way better and more " professional " don't you think ?

And the same goes for the website, the old one was perfect ( Rhaine did a good job on it )
