Hello, i am making a new skin for my forum but i think i'm not being able to give it the right feel. So i need suggestions on how to make this look more Web 2.0, css and usability related. For example when you visit alistapart.com you know there is something special there. I'm trying to be original but also get that feeling but it's hard. Feel free to give suggestions about colors, layout, fonts, and any other thing you think that can make this design look more special or web 2.0.
I like how you rounded certain corners of the tables on opposite ends, it gives it a good balance As for the web 2.0 look, getting close! I would add a light grey gradient on the top part of the header
Hi 8everything, thanks for your suggestion I have attached a screenshot with a few changes, included the gradient you suggested, please let me know what you think .
Looking very nice! You might also consider dropping the light grey lines that separate forums or even recoding the fourmhome_forumbit_level1_nopost template to move your Posts/Threads/Last Posts columns around a bit.
Thanks for your nice words . Do you know any forum with such modification?, just to have a look and see what you mean. I have also noticed that it needs some color, there are only grey and blue tones now. The problem is that i can't find any color that matches with the current ones. Any suggestion? Thanks, Gaston
