Wow... thank you everyone for your comments! It's also a bit of a concern when doing something new (and this is quite new, as previous OWF designs have looked somewhat similar) as to whether it would be okay or not. As what one person thinks is good may not be good for the rest.
With the logo, I got some assistance from a multimedia designer from work (who has played all Oddworld games), as whenever I tried to do logos they kept messing up. That was always one of Sydney's high-points; Logo design. He added the stuff at the back to make it different, it's a distortion of the words "Oddworld Forums". If people don't like it though, it can be easily removed.
Mitsur, how much slower are the forums running for you? I have cable so it's hard to tell such, but when I created the graphics originally I actually noticed the total size was smaller than that of the previous design. I'll check again though. I could also try reducing the size of the Paramonia image at the top and see if that helps.
Abe Babe....
