Critique please
 

I really need some constructive criticism. My site is a low traffic site for myself and just a few gamers so I'm not focusing on generating traffic. I just enjoy working on the site.

Your skin is not very nice. But the colours do match for war games etc. At first i couldn't find my way to the forums index, if i was you i would remove the links on your banner and make it more visible on how to enter the forum i was pretty confused. Overall cool site and maybe add some more forums so more people can post in differnt sections.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my site. My first reaction to your critique was to check for valid points... I will agree on one of your critiques, the skin may not be very nice as I came up with it by altering the heck out of a style I "purchased".

I wasn't going to reply to thank you until I visited your site and discovered any critique from someone with a site that looks as your does is really kind of silly and pointless but, I will give you the statement about the style I'm using some merit, it could be better.

Hm, hey now.. your theme isn't my cup of tea either, but I want to touch on something other than that here..

You REALLY need to not have a category for each and every forum that you have. Categorize multiple forums in one, that will make your forum home not so cluttered and messy. My eyes have no where to focus, it's a big blur of Army green with a few gold lines going across..

I'm also not a big fan of the navigation in the header. When you hover over forums, all the other navigation options just disappear. Keep them there, there's no reason to hide them from your visitors at all.

Yeh I guess but, I like that little header menu I did and it beats the heck out of the Vbulletin standard issue "navbar" that just bores the hell outta of me.

Thanks for the input :rolleyes:

You don't need a category for everything.. Just add one or two categories labeled 'General' and add the forums under there.

How do you get to your forum? I had to go via a newspost, not very attractive, sorry. Although keep trying and improvement will follow.

I have links made into the header, top left of page. The menu clearly has Forums marked on it. Is it really not that noticeable?

I noticed it just fine.

Sorry, I must have been really tired. Now I notice it. :)

Hi! :) Just gave your site a visit and I noticed that most of the boards were set to private, probably cause I'm viewing the forums as a guest.

One thing that may help keep the guests coming and registering is keeping some of the forums open to the public. :) Some people may leave right away when they see that they can't access anything.
