your board needs a lot of work but so far you're doing fine. colors used are off. get rid of the UBBDEV-ish background color and think of something original. maybe you could go for the colors you used for your splash screen which i think looks good. use orange as bgcolor. as for your banner, make a smaller version of what you have on your splash screen. for your text, i guess black would be a good idea, and orange as your link color. it's all about consistency my friend.
