CU, and ViaCAD are sold as tools for designers.
Designers like to make things look good as well as work well.

How about making this forum a bit more appealing for the designers that use it ?

The software that his forum runs on vBulletin allows for alternate styles. or skins.

If you click on this link:[URL="http://forums.omnigroup.com/index.php"]http://forums.omnigroup.com/index.php[/URL] and then go to the popup at the bottom of the page you have the option to view the forum with this dull very PC like look, or a much cleaner and easier to read and follow look.

The attached image (that for some crazy reason can not be viewed as an inline image) showes the two styles side by side.

My vote is for the 'Lithigraphica' style.

A source for skins is:[URL="http://www.vbstyles.com/index.php?do=vbulletin-skins"]http://www.vbstyles.com/index.php?do=vbulletin-skins[/URL]

Many, many others are available, just do a google search for "vBulletin styles skins"

"ViagraCAD"?! lol!

Yes, agreed, the ViaCAD logo is really, really UGLY

Yes I kind of agree with you on the forum looks too- although my grumbles are more towards how it works. Of course as a designer, looks are important, but functionality afaic, is paramount. Good design shouldn't just look good, it should also work, wonders. This this forum is a tad on the clunky side :(
