[Theme Tempest]

I like it overall! There are some niggling issues, though . . . at least looking at it in FF.


The "GO" button doesn't line up with the search text box in both the footer navbar and sidebar.
The top navbar would look much better if it was expanded to the edges of the contentWrap div.
Add some margin to the bottom of the page so the vBSEO links won't sit flush against the bottom of the browser window.
I would increase the width of the forumlastpost and forumstats divs to make things look a bit better when the sidebar is expanded.
The Facebook Connect button in the header needs to come down a bit to align with the rest of the toplinks content.
The sidebar for the blog section contains a lot of white text on a white background. This is obviously undesirable.
I would replace all the default collapse buttons with the custom ones used for the forum categories.
Along those same lines, I would create custom tab collapse buttons for the sidebar, as the default doesn't fit the custom theme.


Again, these are all small issues, but getting all those little things just so will really give the theme a more polished and professional feel. Best of luck with the site!

Wow, that's a REAL review. GREAT STUFF.

Yea I guess you kind of get to a point where your looking a big items and you some how miss the little things.

Thanks so much for the feedback

Theme Tempest said it all :)

Run a pokerbased site myself, I like yours better :)

[wheretobet]

thanks for the props! It has been a year and a half just on the development of the product, but now I think we have a real viable project.

thanks for the support!

Find a way to get the users location via IP without having the popup. I would suggest geoip.

[wheretobet]

it uses geoip, however that is not allways correct.

Hows it looking now?

[wheretobet]

any more feedback?

Hows it looking now?
It looks much better! I'm a stickler for those small things. The only thing I spot right off is that the "Go" buttons are still misaligned next to the search box.

Simple couple of hours theme design with enough dark/light and a spruce of orange

The statusicons dont suit it.

When I join I got my account deleted because I didnt meet membership requirements .. very poor!

wow :eek:

It just seems sooo true. Every post made on my forum by someone in the russian federation is a spam post.

That was rude wheretobet. I'd bet real money your antispam software misread his IP. Sometimes banning an entire country leads to undesired results. I suggest you re-evaluate your antispam methods.

Great design. As a poker fan, I think the idea is awesome. I hope your site does well.

I'm thinking about creating a similar map site for amateur sports leagues throughout California. Would you be so kind as to direct me to where you obtained the google map template and explain how you embedded it on the homepage?

Much appreciated.

Looks like someone who knows their job designed it. Really nice. I'd comment on the category bars (you have some problems, since the orange #top button comes too close to the left side (let's say I can't see the entire text there). Something with your css?

Other than that .. really good job

[BF777]

Funny how he just wanted to feedback, but he wasn't willing to share the customization info. lol
