RangeRovers.net Forum
I just started this skin, let me know what you think. This is my first skin that spans 900px. I think with widescreens and large LCD displays that 900px should be the standard, but that's just me. It is still a work in progress, but let me know! Before you comment "ughh the cars in the header are crooked and their lighting is off" Well after doing 2-3 sites using vehicles in that order including my own site ( www.exotiXboard.com) I can tell you that it's not easy. You must find near perfect picture from e-bay and other sources. I think it looks good, and if you take into account what the current Range Rovers dot net forum looks like you will understand. www.rangerovers.net/forum.

You already critiqued your own work. Now I have to fill this space up with something else.
I would make it so only one vehicle's tire goes onto the navigation menu. Or get both vehicles proportionate and snazzy, but that would be rehashing old things.

Thanks for the comments. Im going to make the fourum area smaller, change the nav color, scrap the nav curves, and add more content. I am happy with the colors, It really gives that "off-road" type feel, which is exactly what I want. It won't look "Bland" when I have everything in place.

I like the banner, apart from the far left image of the Rover, the prespective is a bit wonky. You've made good use of th earthy tones which fits the site perfectly, and the curves on the menu also look nice .

I like the header and it stops about there. The content is to plain and I would love to see some dirt textures here and there to give it an "off road" feel like you said.

Very nice so far, colours work well together. Only thing i would change is the nav text colour, maybe to a yellow to make it stand out more!

I decided to remake this layout, and make it more of an experience! What do you guys think? I am basing the buttons of the range rover L322 aka MKIII interior.... I made the buttons at 300dpi so that I can reduce them in size later on easier.
Don't mind the blue, i just made it so i can switch between colors...
