the navigations on the forum looks great, so leave it as is...looks professional and easy to get around on the site for new and old members, we dont have to go on the main page all the time, just click it from here..its fantastic..also brings out more of the other categories that get hidden because many don't make it to the mainpage, maybe now they will since its just one click..brings our affiliates into the forum also..and btw when i sell ad spaces it will look good also, might charge a bit more for the ads placed in the forum..it also makes us look more like a website with a forum instead of a forum with a mainpage..

also is there anything else you don't like about this design?

its not cluttered, its neat..in vbulletin, we had a huge chat in the middle, google ads on top and bottom and a radio lol that was cluttered.. this is better navigation and i need it for ad space anywayyyyyy, this is the future rhhf..if its clutterd its because of the chat and that banner add.. if u remove anything, remove the chat from the forum but leave the navigation..i use it all the time to get around easier in here when i work to update the site.. its alot easier, i get things done faster..most of the time i go from forum to mainpage fixing things up every second, adding posts, fixing catergories back and forth, doing my job in here, workinggg. if u guys did what i do, you'd understand.. makes it easier, you guys will get use to it but for me.. its easier to update, posts and fix things..i need it for working.
