Why don't you take a look at the Snitz Hall of Fame from the homepage to see award winning forums. Then you can get ideas for improvement. |

Personally, I find the green you're using a bit dark, try something a little lighter (I use #7cc72f on my site on a black background). Also the link colours you've chosen don't really tie in with the overall look; the blue clashes with the green. Apart from that, I'd echo what Erin said; add some CSS to your forms and get some new icons (at the risk of blowing my own whistle, my green set would suit your colour scheme perfectly).

Hmmm Why not get XP Icons set from frutzle.com/snitz and change their colour scheme to green, that will make the forum look even more nicer, otherwise its very good! |

For the CSS, did you see this post:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=41953&SearchTerms=css,textarea
If you change the color values, you will notice changes right away! If you have any other questions about CSS, just ask, I'll try to answer if I can.
I like your MeTV icons; I think they look better than XP icons would. |

Personally I like the look of your forum mate, I found it very nice on my eyes and I like the background too.......
All you need is some content and to get some posting going on and it'll grow for sure |

Just open up the file with a good text editor, and change those few lines as shown in that post, making sure everything looks exactly the same when you're done.
Again, your forum'd look really great if you just changed the colors of the login boxes, textareas, etc. |
