Ooh, I remember you showed us this forum before, beforer their winter skin. I think I said it back then, but I'll say it again: they've done a fantastic job.
They've taken a free board service that's mostly used by newbs to host their 3 member forum and they made a 21742 booming community out of it. Amazing, I personally never thought that such a thing was possible.
And the design itself is almost as great as the achievement. The colours are soft and delicate, and the header is beautiful. everything works out really well, there's no wonder why they went so far.
And yea, it's a pity that Proboards won't let them customize the colours of Google ads...
Surprisingly, the forum looks better than their site itself, http://www.solidsnakedesigns.com/index2.php
Offtopic: about the TF skins, I'm on Dimitrix... So relaxing for the eyes.

Thrik > um no offence but if a designer can;t take critism one should not be designing in the first place. no matter where you go in life designing people will always like or dislike your work.
im very picky on what i like. and in this case i do not like this site. i can;t suggest anyway to improve it because i see nothing wrong with it. but in short it just does not apeal to me. if he is gonna take "i don;t like it" or what ever offensivly then thats his problem. :/

Criticism helps nobody if you don't point out ways in which it can be improved. If all you're going to do is say "I don't like it", then you may as well not bother replying at all. I'm not really concerned at all about him being offended by your posts, I'm more concerned about useless posts altogether.
If you don't like it, take the time to look at it and explain why you don't like it. If you can't come up with at least one reason explaining why it's not a good design, then you shouldn't be browsing the site review forum. This isn't the site rating forum.

That's what I was getting at. Everybody knows that there will be people that don't like your website or forum. I was trying to get him to say what in particular he didn't like.

Critism is not simply saying that you do not like a design. That's just being a prick, simple. Critism is offering why you don't like the design.

I hope you get a warning for that. :mad:
