Developers of the forum software are giving it a new look. They mocked up an example and looks like this.

index.php?t=getfile&id=1780&private=0

Noted are the highlights of the changes being made:
1. The main menu has been moved toe the left the way most other programs are
2. The angel and text logo has been replaced with a place to put your actual logo. There's still room for a banner and the search bar.
3. Note the boxes on the right. Those will be plugins that can be enabled/disabled and displayed on the left or right side.
4. Colors can change. Right now he's using the colors of the logo.
5. The design would be fully responsive.
6. The login menu option has been removed in favor of putting the actual login up there.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions for the new look. We do have a say in this. Once we get a good release candidate, I'll put it on our test box here in Seattle and open it up for you all to play around.
