Once again, constructive criticism is key! Let me know your thoughts, what I should add or takeaway.

Too plain I'd say. I prefer it to have some background color for header, link and column.

Steve

I kind of like it. Too much empty space on each end though for me.

I agree with the others. Maybe even a mild background texture would help.

Will add a soft background to the column headers.

Will do, would you happen to have one?

Probably best to use a semi-transparent, repeating bg. You should be able to find quite a few by Googling.  ;)

Edit. Try the bg in the attachment.

Looks good. Maybe add that same transparent be to your header as well.

Now that's one sexy header :D

I just looked at it on your Biology Forum and it looks great on there. Even the empty space on the footer's left and right works because of the width of the forum. :D

Thanks Steve, and thanks ARG... I really like the second version.

It's amazing what a semi-transparent bg can do.  ;D

Indeed. The footer is much more better now.

I'd prefer using text icon rather than image icon beside header using font awesome. It loads faster. But it it is just preference. No big deal.

I haven't made the transition since some browsers oroperatings cannot render them properly.

Yes. Not all browsers though it is working in most modern browsers just fine.

True. I will make the transition soon. I really like simple icons...
