    Your website loads very slowly. I am not a big fan of the theme colors. The blue and orange colors don't go very well together.
    The font color is a little light. You may want to make the text color a little stronger so that it contrats better with the background and it is easier to read.

    page loads fine for me. i have to agree, the colour just does not seem right. perhaps it is only my choice but perhaps black and a deep blue with white txt.

    overall very good.

    I really like your web 2.0 header design :) But.. I think it stands out too much on the site.. What I would do is place it all the way at the top and make it wider. The rest of the layout looks great however :)

    Thanks for your comments guys, I will try and take on board an overview of the points raised and see if I can improve things on the design side,

    Thanks (keep them coming!)

    Change your forums colour because Yellow and Blue doesn't seems that much good. Good luck dude.

    Maybe try to create a traditional looking head, it is modern. I think people who like chess would like a classic look, it calms down the mind.
