A theme Im working on.
Well I am working on a new theme. I brainstormed this morning and drew a design on paper. I made a few changed to the drawing I made, but I like it...

What do you think, and what do you think I can improve on?

RE: A theme Im working on.
I find the layout nice and simple. Are you planning to keep the scheme and style with it?

RE: A theme Im working on.
Possibly. I might change up some spots. As is most of it is just plain color. I might give is some light to dark grey gradients here and there. I might also use the background image MyBB uses for their site. Either that or find another one that looks just as good.
I also need help thinking of a name for it. I cant design themes, so I certainly cant think of names Tongue

I had to use an online clan name generator to think of a name for a clan I was going to start... I refreshed the page over 100 times to get a new list of names, and STILL couldnt pick one!

RE: A theme Im working on.
lol it happends to me! Names are always hard to choose (at least for me) Tongue

I think you shouldn't use MyBBoard background, it's nice, but try to use something different for a couple of reasons. Also, I advice you to just choose any color and start your scheme from there, so it doesn't end having random colors. You can then add color variations.

BTW, the attachments seem to be not working Confused (I'll have to dig on that, as I have no idea of what's causing it).

But I will see what I can do.

Odd... Its working fine for me? I just re-uploaded it, because I wanted to add a watermark on it.

Also, here is a slightly update version. I lightened up the menu and panel, and also put the footer for the forumbit inside of the tbody for the collapses. (Probably doesnt make sense, you will understand when you see it Tongue

EDIT: Update again. Added a light to dark grey gradient to the panel, menu, and trows.

Yeah, it seems to be working now. Thanksfully Smile

The gradient looks nice on the panel and menu, but for some sort of reason, it makes me beleive the table is fatty?

Weird word choice but I see what he means Tongue. I would say remove the rounded corner on that part and it will look better Wink.
