I don't know if I should say this or not, but I will anyway. This website's set up is driving me crazy. I love Dan, so I'll stay, but it's one of those auto set up sites. I have a friend who works in web design and it makes my heart ache just to see these cheesy websites. They also make me think of junior high, when I had website using an auto set up design. I don't know, it just looks unappealing to me. Please tell me this is not going to be a permanent site. Oh! I love the idea of the site though, I just don't like how it is presented.

Hahaha well how's THAT for some brutal honesty. Personally I think the Web site looks nice to my untrained eye, but I make no claim to being a Web designer. Currently I built the Web site to resemble the basic structure of two sites I like the look of RoosterTeeth.com and LoadingReadyRun.com. I'll widen up the topic here. If anyone has any suggestions or comments about how to improve the site or changes they would like to see describe them in detail below and I'll take them into consideration. Also if anyone would like to directly help with Web design or functionality shoot me an email on the Contact page with some examples of stuff you've done and I'll get back to you. Thanks

Nah man, I love the layout of these forums. It reminds me of all the forums I've ever ever been on since I first got my internet connection. Sure, they're kinda boxy and maybe not as sleek and shiny as some others, but they work and that's just fine for me.

I kinda like that it doesn't look very good; it feels like a homemade website. I know that's not a real thing, but you get what I mean. Though I think (and correct me if I'm wrong) 0chiya0 was only referring to the forums; the actual site doesn't look too bad at all.

I also like this website, and don't mind that looks a little old-fasioned. Side note: echo, I think I have seen you on the new Our Pants site. I recognize your name and picture. I'm nathans115 on that site, idk if you have seen me or not. Odd how I've seen you on two entirely different websites, though when I think about it, it isn't really

Uh-huh, that's me! I got lucky on Our Pants by being the first one to make the Introductions post, and I tend to throw a lot of random crap up there.

Is there any way to make the site mobile friendly?

I made the main site mobile friendly to the best of my ability, but I don't know of any way to make the forum more accessible from the forums. Unfortunately my ability to customize these forums is pretty limited. Sorry. I'll look into it though and see what I can do.

Maybe there's an iOS or Android app?

I think there is an iOS app for the web hoster's sites. But I think it's $3

I have finally put my finger on why the forums feel as if their design is dated. It is the header box (not the HTML header mind you). If you were able to add something from the main site to there, it would add consistency to the whole site, AS WELL AS making it seem more complex. Well honestly, anything is more complex than an outlined box.
Perhaps make one of those fancy collages for the header box, and put the stamp on the 'Me Time' logo/home box. Set the box outline width to 0 and make it look like it extends all the way up and over, and fill the box...with something. It's a about what I would do. If you visualize it, you might see what I what I'm trying to go for.

I honestly love old pages like these. But I'm a nerd from way back so...
