    Well it's still a bit under construction. I am heavily modding the site's code and also the layout which I selected. Let me know what you think and if you have any constructive critisism! Oh, and if you're interested in programming, modding, or computer security feel free to register! We are looking for some good members :)

    What do you think? Keep in mind it's not done :D

    I like the design and all the rollover effects on the forum sections.

    Just wondered what are you planning on putting in the rectangular white box above the forum? I'm not too sure if you need anything there really, so you could just move the forum up a little?

    The color scheme is a nice start, so it the logo. For all of the white borders in your template, I would make them black instead so there isn't too much of a stronge contrast between the white and blacks.

    I was thinking of putting some ads there or something. Maybe not right now though since I don't have barely any traffic, or memebers. But in the future, that's probablly what it will be used for. I'll probablly just comment out the div for now.

    I was thinking of changing the white lines to dark grey or black; that's what I had them as in my initial design, but it got changed midway through for some reason or another.

    I didn't expect to get such good reviews :) So thank you!

    Well I sure hope so! I used to have a very active computer security community about 4 years ago, but the team got disbanned and we all lost contact. So hopefully I can get things going again! You're all welcome to join :)

    Thanks again for the comments!

    I like the design but I don't think the top ad needs to have the huge gray band stretching across the whole screen.

    What would you recommend? I want something near the top, however I don't want a band that is just big enough for the ad. I was also thinking about just moving it to the header (beside the logo). What do you guys think about that?

    The layout is too simple.
