Site Design

[DuellDesign]

Hi Cody!

First off thanks for providing the community with this forum as I see it being a great tool for all of us to take advantage of!

I understand the forum is brand new and probably still in development, but I find the design to be hard on the eyes. I love the wood grain, but the text blends in too well and it feels very busy!

I think the wood grain background is great. I think what would vastly improve it would to take the background of your "Wranglerstar" logo above and make the forum background that nice darker grained wood. It would allow the content of the page to present itself much easier to the reader.

I hope you find the suggestion as a friendly critique as I value your work and content!

My trade is IT and I design and develop websites as a side business venture, so if you'd like I'd be more than happy to be involved in anyway I can! I have a passion for it and love to use it to help others.

Shoot me a message here or reply and I'd gladly give you my contact info!

Thanks,
Aaron

Sorry all, just saw that there is a feedback and questions category I should have posted this in. Can it be moved?

Thanks!

if you go into user control panel...you can change the theme of the forum. currently there is the wooden one and the default blue/silver which i am currently using.

I have to agree. The default view of the site is over kill with all the wood. Even if its easily changeable by the user, the default view is what should be the "best"... depending upon personal views of what is best of course But I would argue that the contrast provided by the wood behind actual words is more of an objective problem than a subjective one.
