How is this MyBB design?

[kavin]

Well. I'm learning to work around MyBB themes and just made a simple one today.

Wish to know how you guys feel about it.

Background is too grey, takes away from main theme.

How about you reduce the forum width a bit more?

 

[kavin]

Thanks for the input guys.

Reduced background grey and reduced the width.

I really love your thead image. But the background along with the container just don't look very good. Keep trying though, you'll make a knock out theme in no time.

I agree

Thanks John. Any idea which colour combination i can use?

Also I just merged the container and background color. How about this?

Well I would try a light grey as the background and a white as the container background. Its really up to you though. You can check out these sites for color choice help:

Edit: Your new image looks much better than the first one you posted. Nice work.

Both look pretty good, just gotta keep playing and see what works and doesn't.

 

[kavin]

Sure John. And thanks for the feedbacks. Really appreciated.
