Please review my website

Hello

I have been running a gaming forum since 2006. My site can be found at www.unrealkillers.com

I would appreciate feedback and review. Thank you

Your banner/logo is horrid and it's 1.3MB -- You cannot really see the name of your site, which should be prominent.
You may consider a better design.

Otherwise - it's a pretty basic vBulletin install with a premade skin. The skin is suitable enough for the gaming niche. UnrealKillers is an awesome domain name. You might consider building a site with more brand appeal, as the current design doesn't read "UnrealKillers" to me at all.

Nice amount of activity it seems though - So congrats on that.

I will look into this...

I'm not a very graphically creative person, would you mind giving some hints or going into it a bit further?

Yeah....for a 10 year old game (UnrealTournament 1999) activity is pretty good. However looking to expand it a bit now.

P.D. If the theme "Aftermath" was the default one would that be better do you guys think?

Yeah, the Aftermath theme looks pretty decent for me, but again you should work on the banner.

Thanks SocialTeenz

As mentioned, not the best at graphics here. If making an animated header should I stick with .swf or something similar?
