[Yellows]

The main idea for this forum was just to provide a place of knowledge that everyone could enjoy and learn from. It wasn't about money for any of us that currently run that forum, so no ads, no upgrades, or anything like that.

Ahh that's great.
Honestly, though, I don't think having upgrades is wanting money if privileges are provided. If you don't want to have paid upgrades, you could have a type of quality upgrade on the forum.
It's really good that it isn't about the money though.

One suggestion I might have is to change the white background, I always find it hard to view websites and read for extended amounts of time (or anytime at all for that matter), with white or another harsh color blaring into my eyes.
