    To be honest, I think it looks terrible. The 3d text and background make it look very unprofessional.

    Nice forum, I think you should make the forum color corrilate with the back ground, like a green rather than a blue. :p

    A little too much movement happening there, but that's just personal taste.

    You should edit out the 3d gifs. Not only do they take up extra bandwidth and take longer for your visitors to load, they are considered a bad and long outdated website design technique (spamming your webpage with 3d graphics.

    It's really bad.

    flashing text? animated text? Crap really.

    Looks like something a 4 year old could make and think looked great.

    Maybe u r all right about the 3d text, I like it, but I dont use templates, pure code. Thanx for the advice, it seems the consensus is that nobody likes 3d. In 1996 I had never really heard of a computer, (got my first in 2001) I was born in the ghetto, we didnt have those kinds of things, but from going from street criminal to self taught web designer (HTML and CSS) I think it it is done quite well. Thanx again for the input.

    3D is not bad at all, it's when you make it spin and flash and jump around the page that it becomes terrible.

    animated gifs = bad.
    In fact, there shouldn't really be anything moving on the page unless it is due to mouseover or user initiated.

    May I ask why? You said shouldn't, is that like bad web design ethics or something, or is just personal taste?
