Does this site look like a good one?

http://narutonation.narutorpg.org/forum.htm

To a guest, does it look to complicated, cheap, professional...?
Roleplayers: Would you roleplay there?
Viewers but not Roleplayers: Does the site look ok?

It looks complex, in a very bad way. In GFX style (bad renders) and in Roleplayers eyes. (I'm as you would call "Advanced Roleplayer")

Which part has bad renders apart from the banner which is being redesigned?

And which part is complex in a roleplaying way?

For starters it's filled with too many forums. Make sub-forums. Then LET US USE OUR OWN CURSORS.

Next, it's so empty and pathetic in the background, add a nice image.

That's for design. A roleplayer wants an active place is all.

Ok, background image. Thanks for the suggestion.
Sub forums - Will ask about moving adverts and such.

Not bad. It doesn't look professional though. Work on a better and smaller banner.

New banner up as well as background (for those who haven't seen background)

The banner is great, but its way too big.

Resizing then.
EDIT: done.
Now working on sub-forums. (Ala a site re-arrangement)

Still too big. It has to be smaller.

How much smaller? I have a very large computer screen xD

Make it like https://2img.net/r/ihimizer/img338/9222/adhotbanmasc02.png

Hmm, trouble is most of the image is at the top too and stretching isn't good for the image. This was the best I guess I could do.

You can always make or request a new one

That image took over an hour! Argh!

Be patient young one

What I meant is the image took me an hour to do ^.^"

I know

xD xD
*Goes to find a new image and do the same thing to it*

EDIT: you know the annoying thing? Most image edit programs don't actually tell you the size of the image in pixles before you actually edit it!

Try Tinypic

Oh, I use photobucket.

well

Photoshop tells.. I can check your pics...

My dad's getting me photoshop soon

Wow, than you better get better in your graphic skills!

Yeah! New banner. Again, lol.

hmmm..... not a big fan of naruto so no

For those who are not fans of naruto: does it look good?

nope. I can't stand that shade of grey. ask my friend, avian. I dislike any site with that shade of grey

Ok, should the grey be lighter?

Look's good so far. This is just me, i dont like the dark theme's that much. Overall it's a good forum

Someone tell me what it should be if not dark xD

I like it black , But I really think you can have your background darker , or changed

The background is black...
Now I'm confused xD

looks darker... awesome. alot better

It was better before. e_e

WHAT THE HECK

Its the same!

idk why but it looks different o.o maybe it didnt load right the last time we saw it >.>

Perhaps a monitor display setting changed? Or its the banner and background together?
