Category Layout
#1
Since I disabled My Tabbed menu for navigation I've decided to redo how we have categories listed. I'm liking it a lot how it is now.  It's fast and efficient.  Any comments? And if you don't know WTF I'm talking about just visit index page.

Heh. When I went back to the index I was confused for a second. I like it a lot better. Some people may complain about the small text, but it looks great to me.

The columned subforums look much better. I didn't even notice that Tabbed Menu was compatible with 1.8 so far.

I will very likely increase the text size. I haven't touched layout at all yet from default theme/templates. Another thing that really is annoying is that quotes are the same white color and I find it hard to view a post if it has a couple quotes in it. Likely I'll make quoted text have a greyish background.

Yes, that'll be much better. I'm glad you've turned off the advanced text editor. I kinda hate the IPB styled post editor which they've included in 1.8.

Earlier I thought that the post blocks were difficult to distinguish from one post to another, but now I see the light gray above and below each post. Was that something you changed, or was that just the monitor I was using at the time? Hah.

I've so far made only the change to the logo background so it matched. Oh..also the link color to match our green. That's it. I'll get to do more overall changes once I use the forum more and have a better vision of what I want.

Can you add a container background as well? The white background seems rather too plain.

I like the forums layout, the very same as on my own forums.

I like that layout, its actually very professional and you find it a lot on support forums, since neophytes might not even notice the tabs to switch forum areas.
