Hi Dan,
Yeah, couldn't agree more. These examples are really eye-catching.
Also unsurprisingly they are Bootstrap-based websites too :)
However I think we need to find a perfect color combo for the Forge
website (something "catchy" like the purple and green in Arquillian).
Any design expert volunteer to aid on this job ?
Best Regards,
George Gastaldi

Overall it's a pretty good theme. I have a few critiques,
though:
1. The content font size should go up at least one more pixel. The
smaller it is, the easier it is to skim or skip.
2. The black text color should be no lighter than #444444 (it's
currently #656565). Anything less than #444444 is just being mean to
readers.
3. I'd like to see some other colors than blue and gray. It looks too
monotonous as is. (One of the best parts of
Arquillian.org is the
purple and green! Don't fear color!!)

p.s. Per the color point, here are some examples that pop:

I think we should use it in our website. Thoughts?
