When we was saying that the forum design suck and don't look pretty good , we got told that this is more then likely not the last changes on the forum and there will be more so it shouldn't look like this , so are you sure that the screenshots you posted are from the final version ? Because if it's the case then I will be more then dissapointed and this is definitely not the work of a 1.5 million dollar forum .

The design has changed a bit since those images were taken. However, the theming engine is should be almost done by now.

I haven't been keeping up with the developments either was wondering though if we had a rough idea of where we are now in the development cycle and how much longer it will take, seeing how this has been an ongoing topic for a damn long time, I was wondering if we are going to be done before the next Bitcoin halving.

I'ld say that it should be at least in an open Beta by the time of the halving.

Learning the troll avoidance button :)
While I haven't been watching development lately, Epochtalk isn't Bitcointalk. Epochtalk is the generic name for the new forum software Bitcointalk commissioned. For an apt comparison, Epochtalk is like Default SMF. Once the work is done creating the backbone, Bitcointalk will be built onto it. What you are seeing there is the default that anyone will be able to take and customize to make their own forum. The orange isn't a theme, its just a placeholder. Styling work will be done last or near last.

Do you have to use an orange skin? I think most folks like the blue grey of the current forum, easy on the eyes. Or at least give users the option to switch skins.

I dont develop the software so I dont have any idea.
You might create a issue here https://github.com/epochtalk/epochtalk/issues to allow theme color change on a per user basis.
