Hi @Gemma, The overall theme is successful, but I do have a few suggestions for improvement. The current three-column layout—with both left and right sidebars—makes the forum feel a bit cluttered. It might be more elegant and visually spacious if the left-hand forum menu were hidden by default and revealed as a dropdown when hovering over the logo. This approach could free up more space for the main forum content and create a cleaner, more modern user experience.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll take it on board.

Once XF3 is released, I'll probably be starting my design again from scratch anyway, so it will be an opportunity to revisit areas that don't work particularly well - having so many navigation links and tabs is one of the most frustrating things that I've yet to find a "perfect" solution for.
