Well, over this weekend I gave www.communityforums.net a total face lift; here's the community features :)

Click here (www.communityforums.net) to go to the community.

new postbit theme
the postbit now is more organized then it was before; much more easier to navigate and doesn't look as stressed.


media database integration
now you can add your images to the media database by just being logged into your username and password; I also fit the style into the database for ease of navigation and to just look cool


portal update
I was thinking the portal was a little too ugly for my tastes, so I've added two new features to it - A random image from the media database and also a Weather Tracker (you must be logged in to view this).


new right menu boxes
Well, to help you navigate the forums and it's core features, I've put little boxes on the right side of the forum home and forum display pages.



chatroom
Using phpMyChat, a new chatroom has been added for members to have real-time discussions or to just relax from posting for a bit.


huge arcade
We pride ourselves in our active and large arcade community; New games are added constantly and scores are reset every 2 months which allows for more competitions.


new right menu boxes
Well, to help you navigate the forums and it's core features, I've put little boxes on the right side of the forum home and forum display pages.


style fix
The style was very hard to navigate, so I pretty much gave it a major face lift :)


Comments are very much appreciated!

Over all it seems really nice, but the fixed background really slows down browsing of the site.

Check it out now ;)

I like it but the overall site navigation is a user nightmare. You've got at least 4 different navigation areas. It took me a minute to even find the forums link.

Considering it's in 3 different places I don't see why :)

He does have a point, but nevertheless, it still looks good.

Overall, a good job. Looks very nice.
