As you can see, the theme has been customized to look like the main site. This theme was created using the default, subsilver2 theme that comes with the forum software. This is also my first time attempting to modify a phpbb3 theme to this extent. If you see any issues, colors that don't fit well (dark background with dark text for example) then please let me know. It's still a work in progress, but it's always better to have more than one set of eyes looking for mistakes.

What I am aware of:

  1. The forums navigation links at the very top of the page (logout, messages, FAQ, Search, Members, User CP) become dark when you hove the mouse of them, thus making them virtually invisible. This will be corrected, soon.
  2. The text at the very bottom of almost every page (powered by phpbb) is very light and also almost blends in with the background.

Those will be addressed shortly. I just wanted to get the site live as soon as possible.

Looks nice. The colours (I prefer not to say color - Not like it matters :P) blend in w/each other. Although, white text on posts would've been better than black as it's easier to see. But I suppose that's just me - I've never actually been any good at design.

I had it set to white at first, but I felt it was a little difficult to read the white text on the light gray background table. The darker table looked good though.

I fixed "Search"! Thanks!! :lol:

Edit:
I changed it back to white, let me know if it looks better/worse. 8-)
