Looking for criticism and suggestions
 
Really looking to get some feedback on what I should change/ add/ remove!

The site looks ok to me except for the colour. A site like this should be exciting and visually cool. The dark colour is depressing. ( just my personal opinion)

A bright colour with interesting things seems the way to go. :cool:

You obviously have put some effort into getting it going, why not make it visually exciting for your members?

Some great points. In future I may look to changing the home page up a bit, however for the Forum I find that a darker colour allows more time to be spent on the forum while ensuring your eyes don't burn out!

The front page will definately be updated in the future, the forum skin will be customized further.

Thanks for your input!

Hopefully you're saying you like all my dark skins! If that is the case, then thanks!

Otherwise, I'm confused and hurt! Haha.

Well it's very dark looking as a few have already said.
I think a much better logo is needed and get yourself a custom fav icon not the default vb one.

Guide_ 08-06-2012 08:35 AM

A new logo is in the works, so that's sorted.

A favicon is also being made!

Thanks for your input. :)

I would definitely consider lightening the skin up as when it comes to blind people like me lol it makes it difficult to read "Thread And Post counts" As well as what time the last post or threads were created. Again though I wear reading glasses so it could be time for me to just get a new prescription lol!

I like it very much especially the login and register part. Good work!

The register part is nice of course, it's used on various forums and part of the theme.

It does look very bland at a first glance, aside from that - it's difficult to tell at a first glance what the website is about.

I actually had a lot more luck finding this out on your root homepage itself, - which by the way looks great. Very simple and easy to navigate. I would work on making your vB forum match that quality.

Btw, check out Answer Forums for your Q&A section, we have a free version on here.

I've thought about changing up the skin, may simply get some modifications done instead to lighten it up a bit!

Thanks for that :D

I'm working on incorporating more of the game into the theme. Any ideas on good ways to do this? :)

I did spend a lot of time putting the front page together, with my limited knowledge it wasn't an easy task.

I shall do that! Thanks for that. ;D

Well first of all, if it's in English, it doesn't make sense.

Secondly, you took the time to reply but not to reword/ rephrase it so that it would actually make sense.

Due to the fact there's no way to determine what tone you are using, due to the grammar being nothing short of terrible.
