lol do you have an example? :O im asking for alot, do you mean the main background? Yeah, the background behind the border around the boards. Maybe something like this colour? Then my recommedation would be to use that colour to adjust a textured background from subtlepatterns, and apply it as your background image.

I love it. I really do. The background pattern you chose feels really appropriate stylistically to Naruto's art style somehow, and the added purple tint in the background gives it just a pop of colour without detracting from the main boards. I like your incorporation of a piece of the banner in the category backgrounds too.
My only other recommendation is to define the ends of each board a bit better, somehow? The subboard listings are kind of merging with the board name and since the font sizes are similar it rather gives off the impression if you don't look at it properly that the subboards are listed on top of the board they're in rather than at the bottom.

other than doing that im not sure, i was thinking of a changing the layout of the boards but i dont know what would look good either lol

I'm pretty sure the subboard container has a class, you could probably target it via CSS. I'm on a laptop with a bad connection right now so I can't look, but if you don't find it by the time I get to a better connection I'll see if I can get it.
As far as the board layout I agreeeeee I hate the default design. I quite like a grid view, but everyone is doing that lately so IDK how much you're into being similar to other sites in that regard. I mean there are plenty of ways to make a grid view look vastly different from everyone else's but grids are grids, you know?

So I've added a lot to the layout of the forum. Still looking for more stuff. Wonder what you think now? Feels like it's missing some stuff but idk what. Haven't slept in over 24 hours so I'm about to run to the bed.

Suggestions:
1. Make the board name font size smaller; one of your boards is getting cut off and they're roughly the same size as the category names so I think it would create a better emphasis on order if the board font size was smaller.
2. I'd make the purple accent a little darker and less saturated. I see where you're going with it and I think it's good (greens and purples are complimentary colours, if you dabble in colour theory at all) but while the lightness and saturation of the green against a dark background provides good contrast, the lightness and saturation of the purple against a textured background comes off as being a little too vibrant. This is also especially true for the contrast with the green text against the purple background in the menu.
3. You're probably aware but the board description text is not uniformly contained within the area you've specified for the description so that needs some troubleshooting.
4. I would probably fiddle with the CSS on the welcome table so there's a clear indication that it's tabbed / what tab is currently selected.
As far as what it's missing... Hm. I agree with you in that it's missing that extra something but I can't pinpoint what it is either. What about collapseable or tabbed categories?

I like the design. It took a little clicking around to find out that it was a Naruto site. I'm a little confused as to the status of the site? No plot or rules, but the discussion was started in 2016. I would spend more time finishing the site before asking opinions? In my opinion. :shrug:
