Lol..Thanks..Please Give us a Review

I like it!

It is well laid out and bright.

I like the idea of the "ticker tape" to announce news. And it comes across as friendly and informative.

There is plenty of scope for growth and topics to discuss.

A very nice job it seems. :up:

Thanks for the review :D

A few suggestions.

• Change the default favircon
• Remove the shoutbox link from the navbar to guest, you have to be logged in to use it
• Remove the code that you have in the breadcumbs “-->”
• I like the setup you have with your forums and the forum icons, nice work there but they do seem a bit busy.. do you really need the date in there, or the icons for the new post.. I’d remove the date and the two small icons for the new post.
• I’ve never been a fan of the scrolling text, so I would remove it as well by the navbar breadcumbs
• Since you don’t have many users or guest on, I’d suggest hiding the what’s going on box.. no one cares how many spammers have been denied registration.
• The black parts are a bit hard on the eyes, I’d look for a lighter gray or find some dark blues to replace the black in the header and footer.
• Remove the google ads after the first post.. if your site had 100 or even 20 users on, I could see adding ads but this is a big no no imo to load up the site with ads and no one on it. You may have more ads but adblock takes care of them. I just see the empty post that says Google after the first post.
• Add a few more links (remove shoutbox) from the recommended Links in the footer. Like links that says what the site is about, good resource links from your forum would also be good here.
• Change the “if this if your first visit…” text in the header. Use a notice, make it look nice. Explain to your guest why they should sign up.
• The logo could use some work but that may be something you’ll get down the line.
• Why is there a “home” link in the navbar, remove that as well. Your logo will take you home.

The black footer looks out of place. The shout box link in navbar you can set it so only members see the link apart from that the rest is good

1.- Adjust the marquee speed. Not all your visitors are 20 years with spark yes.
2.- Remove the marquee bordrer or adjust the padding to a higher value, or set just bottom border
3.- Does not appears well on 1024 X 768. Yes I know that is a low resolution. But even if my hardware supports 1366 x 768, I'm using 1024x768 for easy reading for the same reason mentioned on (1).
4.- Brandon Sheley has post some very usefull advices. Follow them

I would set the heights of the div containing the forums on forum home to the same height so they line up across the two columns.

BTW- is the two column layout on your forum home custom or a mod?

I would remove that text above the welcome banner, make that banner a link to your registration page and change that green color to black so that banner actually blends in and doesn't look out of place. :up:

Thanks for your suggestion.I did it.Please check :D btw I liked it :P

ya that part if much better now :up:
