I'm not sure about the current design of my website, IntellectToday.

Many have commented that it is plain, and not quite unique enough.
However, I haven't really found a theme that fits a site like IntellectToday.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.

IntellectToday is located at http://www.intellecttoday.com and uses VBulletin.

Thanks!

What exactly is the theme of IntellectToday? All I've seen so far is an avatar with an alien.

Maybe it isn't the theme that you should concern yourself with - it's legible enough as it is. Don't touch that for now.

Maybe all your website needs is one killer banner at the top. Your logo is merely a series of Photoshop blending effects. You need a strong image that suits the theme of your website. That visually contrasts with the content below.

People are used to good design. Aim to surprise.

Thanks for your input.

Here is what IntellectToday is about, to clear up the confusion:

IntellectToday is a website focused on Science and Technology, Philosophy, and related subjects.

it probably looks ordinary as its not as branded as other major forums. its prob your coloring and i cant see that chatbox working well to be honest. its going to hog a lot of resources from your host.

I think the logo color should be different from the main color of the board. The green is OK but the blue looks a bit not in place.

It seems the majority agrees - the theme needs to be changed!

Now, it's only a matter of finding one that fits!

The header looks awkward and is quite plain. Plain can be good if done tastefully. The look just doesnt seem current to me.

its a nice logo but it should extend all the way to the end of the page (horizontally) instead of switching to a blue color halfway.
