So I got this:

Code:

#ipbwrapper {
background: linear-gradient(#e6e6e6,#51708f);
margin-top: 390px;
margin-bottom: 200px;
-moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 10px #121212;
}

I changed the main backround (page body)color from the dark blue to a light gray to a darker, bluish gray gradient. I think the forum is too blue.

Code:

.borderwrapm, div.borderwrap {
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
background-color: #2a639c;
border: none;
color: #fff;
margin-left: 47.5px;
text-shadow: .5px .5px #303030;
width: 90%;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-left: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}

Instead of a lighter color than the page body because of the translucency effect, I changed the index color to a little lighter blue.
