The forum looks good, in my mind, and seems to work well also.
A suggestion would be, if possible, to make the boarders between posts more distinct.

There are buttons at the top and the bottom of a post, and it can be difficult to see where they belong.

I agree, Slorri, posts weren't sufficiently demarcated from one another. I've added a 30 pixel margin to the bottom of posts. Please let me know whether you think this solves the problem, or whether we need further action.
Yes, better.
Maybe the line just above a post should be darker and thicker also.
How's this? Too much?
Laird, it might help if you could darken (and maybe thicken) the line separating the posts.

Good.

Done, although I'm not sure it's all that aesthetically pleasing.

yes, it looks foul

That's a better way of putting it. What would your solution/suggestion be, Max? Right now this dividing line is 4 pixels high with colour #333, and the bottom margin of posts is 30 pixels high. Hit us with your best alternative!

Mmm, I tried that (with your suggested #e9e9e9), but it doesn't seem to have made much difference. Let me try something a little darker.
Too dark?
