Maybe I'll hire some smart dude to slick it up...

Better, but even better would be blank. Just a solid colour background makes everything slicker.

Here's an example with more modern looking fonts and a cleaner top without the donate button, so all focus is on the banner...
I'm a sucker for minimalism though, especially on the web: the cleaner, the better.

So all you did is remove the one thing I need to survive?

And I have to be honest...I absolutely can't tell if you've changed any fonts in those two pics.

Dots bite. The plain blue was slicker.

You still have the donate button on the bottom... The font that looks a bit shit, it's Trebuchet MS.
Anyway, your site, you like how it all is, don't change it.

Dude, you are aware that this site operates on donations and ad revenue, correct? I can always learn a little from everyone...but I'd appreciate it if you didn't come on to my free board, not donate and then say the site looks like shit. Jeesh. |

You specifically ask for an opinion, and then get pissed when you get one... Good luck with that. |

Well, this all started because I posted a thread asking about opinions on how to get more clicks on advertisers. You then told me it was because the site looked "tired"...Hey - no sweat - you could be right. So, in response I posted this thread...So, maybe I'm overreacting a bit, but you are a new poster and you came in and called my baby ugly...

Sure, for most people your question about advertisers is just about business. Nothing personal. To clarify the misunderstanding: Tired = could benefit from an update Shit/ugly = can't be helped For what it's worth, to this non-donating new poster, your site looks better already  |
