I think I could change forum's title image! But what is a substitute?! I have a little imagination, but I can invent something humble
If you have any good examples from other sites and forums please show me!
What do you think?

a little bit of colour would be nice...but hey, I'm a girl maybe that's why.

Why not dismiss the grey-ish look and colorise it? Let's say for the dark grey bits green (like the green in the heading "DMs Beatles Forums") and for the light grey bits a lighter green...and, of course for the white bits an even lighter green? The heading could then be gold. It shoud be gold. Cause this forum is

Yeah!! Good idea!! Colours!

And when my mind is wandering
There I will go."

What if you changed the letters of the title? Or the word "Beatles" to the tipical Beatles logo?

I see. I try do add some colors! I prefer pastel shades, because rainbow colors and much others will irritate soon.
About typical Beatles logo I think it would be too typical. I'd like to keep forum in touch with my site at least due to font  
What do you think?

It can be colorful in a tasteful way too, it doesnt neccesarily have to be irritating even if you use many colours. Yeah, too bright ones can disturb one's eyes, thats true. You have to find the ballance.

Too typical?
"I think I know I mean a 'Yes' but it's all wrong, that is I think I disagree. "
What if you use the letters only for the word "Beatles"? Would it be that bad?

just a suggestion here, of course the font colour has to be changed to something more visible on the darker backgrounds. What do you think?

You mean to show status in threads opposite each message?
If so I will not do it. It'll take much time to programm forums for this, and then every time when I upgrade it do it again. I upgrade forums from http://www.eblah.com/ I can discuss it there.
