We try to decide which style to choose: Dimension or Ortem

Personally I like Dimension a little more, but what do you think?
I'd personally also make the background color more dark, more like our old theme we did have with XF1, but thats all after choosing the style first.

PS: We'd also need someone to create a custom background image ;) You know what to do.
Thanks.

I think Ortem is more eye falling, but too late since you already bought the other one :confused:

You may still help us with styling.
We still need some nice images (2000x300) for the header.

I'll have a look on the PC soon. I'll get back to you

UPDATE #1
Okay, I got something for you!

Seach box
The search box is in the way of the menu. Maybe replace it with a magnifier icon and make the input box popup when pressed. That way theres more space for the menu links.
I noticed that this depends on the resolution and browser..

Userbar
The userbar is floating above the navigationbar. Make it positioned to the navigationbar instead. Looks much better.

Header
Decrease the height just a little. Make it "height: 150px;".

To be continuee... :p

UPDATE #2
I modified the source a few times and came up with the result below. I think it looks much better. What do you guys think?
Header original: https://imgur.com/a/RhYId
Header modified: https://imgur.com/a/K3XXt

The idea is that the search input box will appear when you press on the magnifier icon, just as the "mobile version"

did that.

maybe, but there is no way to do that easily, also it would cause space issues with a smaller width.

What I did, only applies if the width is above certain pixels. Otherwise it will look like the "mobile version".
I can send the CSS code to you tomorrow so that you can test it for yourself

The new one looks way better than that weird dark one you added after changing to the new xenforo ;)
