Default Critique my forum design (since noone will listen in the proper thread)
I need C&C before i submit this for the comp ladies and gentlemen. It's not finished, so i need you to tell me how to make it better.

Without further ado - I present TIBB 2.0!


and a full-size BIG version for inspection

SO should I make it smaller, or scrap it completely?

the logo font could be better, and I'd widen the Forum tab and narrow the Last Post tab, but otherwise I love it.

The user cp etc at the top could be spaced out to fit the whole page more as well

I like it, the colours are a good blend and soft on the eye, though I agree that the header is a bit large. Damn sight better than I'd be able to do since I'm handless with this type of thing.

Just change the logo into something more memorable and brighten the colours a bit and it'll look amazing

Prefer the white forum body background like the top one tbh, I like the logo better in that one though (maybe not the font) you could also maybe use a colour from the eye design for the first letter of each word.
