Stated a surf forum as an add on to my blog which is growing alot lately. Been online for 5hrs, would love to hear what you all think. Your Local Surf Forum
I would suggest making a new header for the site, or picking a more "Watery" design and editing it to make it perfect for this topic/site.
The forum looks great, it works well with the theme of your site, but it's difficult to see the following links above your header Login | Register | FAQ I think you should change the color of the font.
Been scanning through the code, but not sure where to look to change the colour on that top bar! do you know where I should go to change it?
The forums look alright, you need some categories in there though. Also the name of your category is called "introductions" I'm not sure if that was intentional.
There are a bunch of categories on there and I changed the one you mentioned to greetings now, thx for taking the time to look.
It looks a lot better now, I would make the header picture blend, or at least the same size as the full header spot.
