Layout the format is not good


Its too jumbled up

I wonder if our resident forum/site manager could more closely emulate the look of the IMDb boards? I'm sure it's possible.

Design is something I've put on the back-burner, but will definitely get around to it. I've gotten mixed feedback on the design (some people like the simple layout, some want something similar to IMDB, etc.).

As you know, right now I am 100% focused on archiving as much content from IMDB before they shut down the boards, as this is a time-sensitive task.

A few suggestions:

Shrink the font a bit for thread titles.
Widen things a bit more (it's currently at 66%. Bumping it up to 76% or even 86% would be nice).
Alternate the background colors for both post titles and posts themselves. This helps differentiate them, especially posts.
Float the post info (posted 3 hours ago by x, 1 replies) to the right instead of having it below the title.

A lot of this can be achieved thought plain old CSS.

Other stuff:

Replies are pretty much necessary for any forum.
An edit/delete function would be great.
A way to browse the latest posts throughout the entire board would be nifty.
