yeah, on the colour scheme, this has already been debated to death, and I was one in favour of a more "mythy" flavour, but in the end, i've been totally won over by the final result.
I still think the game banners are too much, but I do like the thumbnail for maps.
At present, users can add markup (actually, markdown) to their descriptions which allows for banners and screenshots etc (check out some of the magma entries!), BUT that assumes you have a host for your images, and it doesn't allow for them to be displayed in the short descriptions. At some point i'd like to see the option for people to upload an image which would be resized to an appropriate height and width for inclusion in the description and in the short list.
Anyway, give it time, it will likely get sexier as time goes on. Right now the focus is on content, stability, and functionality.
One big upcoming features is user controlled theme. Specifically for the front page, but maybe more. allowing you to determine what you want displayed, in what order, and perhaps more. This could tie in nicely with VR's suggestion of a graphics lite option.

/ your susceptible to such smooth graphical ploys. And it does look clean and concise its apples iMyth evolving.... though it is surely far departed from the game and thats what my posts are pointing to that any site myth game related should clearly and with spice, creativity and maybe even goulish art relate to the games ... that's what my feable attempts are trying to push.
