    Can you give me some feedback on this. What do I need more of?, What do I need less of? What would you do with it?

    Thanks.

    I would lighten it up and create a logo for the forum, maybe edit the background to white to make it brighter as well as the first and second alternating colours to something lighter.

    I can see a logo with wires used looking pretty good and a lighter header background maybe a grey to white gradient.

    The forums seem well in place and very active so you cant be doing nothing wrong there :D

    As a personal preference I would remove the whats going on box for guests but in your case the activity may be very attractive to newcomers.

    I'm not fond of the target-like circle over your forum name; I think you need a real logo.

    To be honest its all ready been said. Try making a logo with wires and cables involved. Other than that i can't really think of anything else. Goodluck...;)

    Nice active Forum there sir!

    1. I'd get a new logo. I think you mentioned some where you were in the process of getting whole new headers designed so that should help.

    2. The color scheme isn't to bad, doesn't really say "electric" to me personally, but its not that bad honestly!

    3. I'd remove the forumhome guest welcome notice. You've got an awfully nice welcome notice setup using vBulletin welcomes system

    4. On the forumdisplay where you view threads, there is an empty bar at the top that has "Ads" but nothing appeared there except for the "Ads" text.

    5. Your sidebar and side navigation look good!

    Over all, another nice site Dan, best of luck with it
