Heck I've reviewed several other sites on here. So it's only fair that I offer up one of my own for review and comment.
Preface: My site's "web" side isn't opened just yet but it's close. It's running on a Joomla backend that's been integrated into VBulletin's user database. Which means if your registered on the forums and your on the staff you'll have access to Joomla's admin area. The forums are open and that is what I'm asking a review of.
Pix3licio.us - Gaming and Gadgets site - Focusing on the gamining industry and high end technologies.
LINK: http://www.pix3licio.us/forums
Website: (closed atm) is Joomla. I've attached a screenshot.
Forum: Vbulletin.
Skin: Titanium from Extrempixels which has been modified to meet my needs. Several custom graphics have been created to brand the forums to the website.
Hacks used: Custom made featured threads image bar (forumhome); BBCODE Staff Notice; BBpixel jvbPlugin; Cyb - Advanced Forum Statistics; gXboxLive; nCode Image Resizer; Ultimate Side Columns; vBadvanced CMPS used for custom pages.
Addtional Tools: Openx to run my ad campaigns.
As with any review. I'm looking for suggestions on improvements visually, and how I could better organize the site. This is my 3rd Vbulletin site so I want to make this as success from the start. So I'm really look for the help. Thanks again for taking the time to consider my site.
