Nothing fancy about this really but it sits really well within a portal based on Joomla. The Joomla set-up was taken straight "out of the box". Forum sits in a wrapper module. Did some colour matching thats about it. Does not get many posts as we do most of our contact face-to-face

I like it a lot - nice work. My only q is if the green color text really is a good choice - it is nice but how about readability? Isnīt green a difficult color for color-blinds (do not know the correct word in english). |

Cool :)
Nice and simple - focussing on content over chrome, which is business-like without being dull. |

Ok thanks Roger, I will check that out. I looked into it a while back for another site but must admit I can't remember the problem colors.

it is not the actual colour green that would be a problem, it is when it interacts with other colours (depending on your type of clour blindness) green on white is fine, green on blue or green on red would be bad choices |

Its a good looking site.
Couple of points - you have spelt "resources" wrong on your front page and your forum version is quite old 3.3.05, I believe there are numerous bugs with that version. |

I like the look of the overall site, and the color is not bad for it. There is just one thing that you should do with the forum, and that is remove the logon stuff (Username, Password, Forgot Password link and the Save Password boxes) from the top of the forum in the iFrame and place it on the side as you have done on the front page.
That would save a lot of "white space" at the top of the forum, but I would only do this after upgrading to the latest version of the forum. Apart from that, great job.

I'm color-blind (or whatever it's called in english =)) and have no problem reading the text. If the background would be red I'd probably have some trouble though =)
