I was thinking that the site would look so much more... professional if it had a different skin. The images are lovely, but the colors of the forum are bright and unnatractive. I suggest that you either find a premade layout (RPGC has a good database) or rearrange things so there is a similar color scheme and it's more pleasing to the eye. I'm sure that you would get many more members if you changed things around a bit. I'd be willing to help if you wanted me to, but I'm not even that good at skins. Just a thought, trying to be helpful, that's all.

o.O Blue, white, and black are unattractive? Okay, what other colors could I use?

I'm not saying that they are unnatractive, I'm just saying that it doesn't go very well with the site. I could give you the link of some of the RPGC layouts (you have to be a member there to see them) or you could make the scheme be reds to match the banner. Or you could make the background black or darkish grey and have reds of any kind as font, but then you would be getting yourself into the stereotypical vampire rp site layout.

Yeah, I didn't make the layout, somebody on the Twilight Lexicon did. =/ I was thinking of making the banner gray, as that would match things better...

Okay, that's fine too, but here's another thought from me: maybe make the grey a little darker and the blue a little darker as well, instead of that bright, standard blue. And the backgroung picture of the barbed wire kind of gets on my nerves, not the picture itself, but the fact that there is a picture to begin with, I tend to lean towards the textured or just plain backgrounds. Just wondering, did you make the banner?

No, I messed up on my last post. I made the layout, somebody on the Lexicon made the banner. I'm a retard sometimes and mess up my words.
I like the picture background... I'm not a fan of plain ones. They're just too... well, plain. I'm making another layout right now, so when I'm finished you can take a look and see if you like it better.

Okay, I can't wait to see the new one. Here's a texture background that might look nice, I'm not sure how it would look since it's small, but it might be worth it. And you might want to upload it to PB or ImageShack or whatever if you decide to use it.
