Rather oldish but I would to get some feedback so I can edit it again if needed.

Edit: Also ignore the header. I know there are text and buttons all over the place.

Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore!
:o I really really like this. I love the concept of the theme, it's simplicity, yet it still clearly specifies its theme. I really love the h2. There are, however, a few things that I would change. First off, the glow on the new forum marker looks off, so I would simply remove it. Also, this is minor, but I think the X for the collapse button should be a simple, white minus icon rather than a red X which would typically portray closing a box, rather than minimizing. My last/final thought is concerning the text. All of the text may perhaps be the same font, just different styles, but to me it looks like you have 10 different font families going on which is really....weird xD

Fantastic job on this, you should definitely finish up and code this!

I agree with all of your points. I redid the collapse button so that it is a lot less obtrusive. Tell me what you think: https://i.minus.com/jsaeIObiAm530.png

And I'm still working on the other 2 points :)

I actually remember being offered to code this a while ago for Nicholas's Minecraft forum. It's a shame that never went through. :P But yes, I agree, I absolutely love this theme so I hope it's coded one day.

This is looking really excellent - perhaps one of the best and most professional Minecraft layout designs I've ever seen (that includes their own website). Besides what Nick said, all I'd like to see is perhaps the submenu being developed a bit more - it doesn't need to be much more complex, but I'd at least like to see a hover state. :)

Are you wanting this to be coded? I could perhaps find you a coder to release this if that's what you'd like.

Definitely one of the best Minecraft themes I've seen :) I really love the h2. You have that Minecraft feel while still keeping it pleasant to look at. I do agree more should be done with the submenu, but the rest looks great!

I did some minor changes include a new header concept?

Do you guys think I should keep that header or think of something? Be honest.

Edit: BTW thanks for the comments, I appreciate every one of them. :)

Loving the update. I like the new header area, though as Cody said something should be done with the submenu. Try at least maybe adding a hover box for the links?

I think the topmenu should be brown since there's nothing else in the print that color.

Yeah, I have to agree. I just looked at it with that in mind and it really does stand out. ;o

Beautiful theme tho.
