Unless you have advertising to insert, the green area at the top of the page is way too much. You could trim 33% by raising the Log off & Hi,Member! , then eliminating the excess green. It would free up about 3 lines of space that could be used to add 3 lines to the Chat/Shout Area. It would be a better look.

PS, I know you edited your post, but just wanted to give you a little reason behind the madness.


Edit, that reminds me, our "Packers Schedule" is freaking hideous. Really need to figure out that design.

The idea is to get a layout that will work for small devices, big devices and all the various screen resolutions. The most commonly used resolution is 1366x768 which is what most laptops display content.
