Looks great! I use those XP-like icons on my own site. Have a more professional look to them than the standard ones, IMO.

I like the re-designed header. Clean and neat. The area above looks very similar to that of Amazon. I guess their design was inspiration?

Nice header. But the blue you have used is too sharp, I think a softer tone should be used.

Over-all look of the site and the forum is very good. I also like the icons, they suit your forum!

You are correct about Amazon. I liked their idea of using the tabs for navigation. A while back I tried to modify the forum to use the same kind of idea but gave up and went with the header I have now. Maybe I should think it over again... Change the forum header to tabs. Thanks

Thanks Faizan. I changed the color from blue to royalblue. I think it looks better now.

I love the colours and icons !

The website header might look better if it was royalblue not blue, thats more of a personal preference though.

nice looking site, the people will slowly come to your site just give it more time to where they find the forums

Nice design, good icons, and good colorscheme.
One remark tough ; on topic.asp, you won't see the actual topic, unless you scroll (at least not on 1024x768)...that's a pitty. You only see the header, the navigation, the ad, and the first row of the topictable, but the actual topic itself is outside the screen.
The same goes for forum.asp, you won't see more than just 1 topic at first without scrolling...

I can see at least two things I can do to bring my topics up closer to the the top. Thanks.

I have one more update on my forum

I wanted to know what your opinions were. Here is the current forum: www.mybirthcare.com/forum and here is the new one I've been working on: www.mybirthcare.com/forum/default_new.asp I tried to make the forum buttons at the top look like the rest of the buttons on my site, but I'm also making the user log in from login.asp now. I don't like adding in that extra step but I think it looks cleaner now.

Opinion

Thanks

It looks good, but still you can only see a topic or the topiclisting when you scroll...the initial view doesn't show any information except for the header and all the buttons.

Excellent work!
Your forum is worthy of all the effort used in its development.

PLEASE don't start this argument on every thread it's getting boring already and will upset other forum owners. You know the solution.
