I am a software guy who makes a living writing software. However, I am totalling lacking in imagination and artistic creativity - I think the most awesome data entry screen looks a lot like an exel spreadsheet - so I when I go to layout an data flow interface, I do it the American way - I copy someone else's. Give me algebra expressions and formulas and I can't be any happier... coaching my softball team comes very close. That being said, what I do when its to be artistically creative is steal the best of the other guy's stuff, of course avoiding breaking laws and copyright issues.
I love what you guys have here for the most part - but I do not like the goofy coloring scheme you are using to indicate that a thread has been read - stick to black and white - use a icon to indicate things like 'unviewed' or whatever. Also thin down the display per topic so you can see more at a time, make it easier for us to a) see what we havent viewed, b) see as many of the most recent topics at a time.
You may have bought this package and dont have writer's priviledges to make changes but this is my 2 cents. I dont know much about what other people like about eteamz but I know that making it easy to view new topics or messages is big to me.
