   Forums have been poorly designed, usability nightmares since forever. Great work, Mac.

   I’d tone down the drop shadow on that industrial pin, and make it a bit smaller (maybe so its height is the same as the search box.) Things have to be flat if you want to be in the minimal clique.

   Thanks Matthew! Yeah, I've run a few forums before and honestly the biggest issue is some of the bad forum software out there (vBulletin). Pin shadow needs some work.

   It's really well done. Since it's not public, maybe a full screenshot? :)

   What's the software behind this forum? Vanilla?

   P.S.: I could say too that it doesn't seem minimalist, by the meaning of "reducing to its essential elements". It's plain, simple, but not minimalist (the paper effect, the unnecessary dividing lines, the pin...). But it would be really nitpicking, that's true: it's great and that's enough! :)

   @Davide It is custom software. And yeah I know it isn't truly truly minimalist, just needed a title for it and settled on that one.
