Your header is not centered.This is all what i could say.
Good Luck

I think you could make it less... blue... The sites graphics are a little "boring" I guess.....

And you need to center the header...

Hey!

Just an idea, but you could get a custom theme designed, no? There are a number of free ones around that might suit you.

Apart from that, good site (y)..

Forums are all about content, not design. If it's simple, clean and easy-to-use then it's OK.

Only thing you can improve is your header so I decided to do that for you. Below you can find background image you have to add into your body background css like this:

background:#E1E1E2 url(images/background.png) repeat-x;

Note that I preserved your background color.

Logo image is transparent PNG so to avoid problems with IE6 visit this site:

It's really easy to implement (one line of code in your main css).

BACKGROUND


LOGO


You can freely use both background and logo. I made it and I'm giving you the license to use it so you don't have to worry about copyright :biggrin:

Some credits or rep would be nice :naughty: but not required. It's up to you. :biggrin:

It looks great except that large header is kind of obtrusive. not what your looking for on a forum. On a website its accseptable.

Oh, you changed the template. My previous post was based on your first one.

Leviathon, just playing around with different templates and looking at changing site name.

The header you made was excellent cheers for that, any chance you could do one with www.tenpinforums.co.uk

Put it in a div and set align propertie to center. For example:

<div align="center"><img src="header.png" /></div>
