Hey...this is my first board so I'm kind of floundering a bit, would somebody mind rating it? ...I'm not sure about the Golden Wood skin....the other two I quite like, but they don't fit that well with the name of the board.. Thanks ;D The Golden Wood

Well, can't comment on the other 2 skins but the one I see looks really nice. I would have choosen a different background though. Either something simple with just a pattern or textured, or one with a "wooded area"? This site has lots of backgrounds, foresty ones included: www.top100-websites.com/bg/Just click on "Nature/Flowers Textures" and have a look at some of the wooded backgrounds. Just a suggestion. Also, change the blue default colour of the scroll bar to match the rest of the board. This code goes into the Global Header: <style type="text/css"> <!-- BODY { scrollbar-arrow-color: #color; scrollbar-base-color: #color; scrollbar-face-color: #color; scrollbar-highlight-color: #color; scrollbar-shadow-color: #color; scrollbar-3d-light-color: #color; scrollbar-dark-shadow-color: #color; } --> </style> Of course, since you have more than one skin, I would suggest to either choose a neutral colour that matches all skins or get a code that allows you to use a different scroll bar colour for each skin. A little tricky that one though... Also, get a nice set of old/new icons - those on the left-hand side. This site has lots of nice icons - all the right size: www.iconarchive.com/BTW, you might want to consider using the colour for the title bar in Windows 1 as well. Looks more interesting if the posts have alternative colours. All the best for your board.

Very nice, love the new default colour. Again, use the scroll bar colour code and try getting a nice creamy colour that is neutral enough and looks good with all skins. Frankly, anything is better than that blue default colour. Cute menu buttons and nice banner, but what is missing is a nice set of old/new icons - just to give the board more life. Again, choose a different background, something with a pattern or textured, otherwise it looks too bland. Good luck.

If you are using Firefox, you won't see a difference in the scroll bar colours but IE users will. And the old/new icons are what some people call on/off icons - those on the left-hand side that tell you when there is a new post.
