My message board design

I'm in need of opinions on how my message board is presented. Obviously, it is the same old 2ch style with a different style sheet and quick reply removed.

I'd really like to know other people's opinions on the presentation. Do you feel like this is a board you'd like to post in? Is it intuitive? Is it inviting?

It looks ugly, and someone who isn't familiar with 2ch style boards would be confused by it.
