|  | Learn The Box-Opening day! « Thread Started on Apr 1, 2005, 10:06pm » | |
Hello, I am the administrator of Learn the Box Forums. I would like to announce the opening of a new forum, due to our previous Invision Powerboards being hacked approximately five montths ago.
Well, we came back with a stronger template, design and a better overall community. Our official opening day will be today, Friday, April 1st. For this special opening day, we encourage you visit the site in Internet Explorer or Netscape for a few April Fool's scripts that we have inserted into it. We hope these codes don't annoy you and cause you to get annoyed, if so, just visit it in firefox, where the April Fool's codes will not work. I encourage you to visit www.learnthebox.tk or http://ltbtest.proboards44.com/index.cgi to sign up, show your suport, make some posts, start some threads, etc, just come and be hyperactive for a day, or two. We'd really appreciate it.
Thanx

This is a board to show off your work, no advertising please.
But since I just thought to make the rules, I'll let you go this time. 
Well, a nice design, but could use some work.
A nice color scheme, to begin, but the grey gradient and the shade of green for the other gradient don't seem to fit, maybe test it out with different shades and make both gradients green.
The banner looks nice, I particularly like the designs wrapping around the sides, the text is also unique, haven't seen it before. I like the design in the back and how it fades to a solid, but I think the Xbox image could be worked on, as it isn't very good quality.
Also, under the menu bar, there is like a chopped off gradient. On purpose?
The menu icons look good, the fit in nicely and look like they are sticking out of the gradient.
The welcome table in my opinion doesn't add too much to the forum. The text is too large, the affiliates don't look too good at the top, and the shoutbox makes people only come to the forum to talk in the shoutbox, too lazy to make threads.
The on/off icons are nice, but don't exactly match the Xbox theme.
Everything at the bottom also doesn't seem to fit. The affiliate bar has too much text, try finding an updated version. The table with the new/old icon guide may not be needed as the white looks out of place, and on most forums the colored icon means new posts. I don't think the counters, etc at the very bottom are needed either, in my opinion.
A nice forum, but I think parts of it need some more work.
