Not really a design, you use default templates !

Nice header !

[Sooner95]

didnt realize it had to have a design..lol Yea, I like it simple.. it works which is all that matters to the members

[School-Help]

Your sites been runnin' for 4 years! You've only got 67 members. Anyways , yeah the headers cool pretty much the default design though. So can't comment too much!

[DeRtY JoHn]

Wow, 4 years and 67 users. You are using the default templates, so there's not much to say about your forum. 5/10

[Spam Grover]

Lame layout, few members for so old of a forum, I give you 2/10.

[Sooner95]

well, i guess i like to weed them out, dont see much in keeping members around with Zero Posts..LOL

Its not about who has the most, its who has the most active..IMO

I have switch it, so the dark style is default if that matters. I dont care about Eye Candy, I care about functionalilty.

Thx again for the feedback, feel free to join if you choose..

[Sooner95]

Main reason why membership is so low, is site was never really promoted. I have opened it up now, and got it listed with google. I hope my me,mbership goes up, tho it will take time. I do know I have a solid foundation of current members, most ofthem have been on it the entire time, which is cool..

What does your site have that others don't?

[blackpheonix]

hmm mayb split up the categories also its a bit of a strain on the eyes imo.

i dont think the colours go either.

[lasto]

looks ok to me m8,maybe needs a new design or soemthing

[Sooner95]

colours dont go? any suggestions as to improve?

is skinning vb difficult to do?

[Sooner95]

What does your site have that others don't?

I dont know, like to think my site just offers a bit of everything. Have done my best to incorporate alot of the good hacks provided here, arcade, rpg, vbookie ect..

We have our own IRC Chan, which has been running for over 4 yrs as well.

Have a wide range of topic to discuss, general chat, to Tech forums, and i try and and not limit it just to the USA. have a good portion of members from EU, Asia and Auss as well...

Alot of us have been together on this board for along time, so its kinda like a family, have even met a few of them, rang in the New Years! hehe..

I will be the last person to say, my board is better than yours, becuase I dont beleive in that. everyboard out there offers something in particular to there members, and thats why they are their. I just try and make sure my members njoy there experience on Bulldog, and if new member are drawn to what I offer, then that is great.

ok, i have went thru and re designed the site. i like it better already.. let me know what u think, still needs some work here an there..

Ok, updated the first Post with some information about the site.

(Thanks kall for the wonderful idea on the format for the first post.)

[Sooner95]

added FlashChat to the mix.. pretty snazzy, and was ez to do..

[Sooner95]

Thanks

[Sooner95]

Hi all, site has went thru a rebiuld and a cleaning. VB 3.5 with all the cool stuff. Also installed 2 pretty good themes, a dark and lite.

Anyhow, weeded out alot fo members that never did anything, and am looking for new members and feedback.
