[bashy]

I am on a 10mb connection and it took a while to load the portal about
10 seconds about the same to load the forums and about 20 seconds to
load a thread, your idea about upgrading the server is a good one me thinks...

The postbit is looking a tad big but this is cause the activity hack is above
Make it be in the middle or to the left of the other stuff and it will shrink the
postbit dramatically... see here for an example (my site) although mine aint much to go by

I quite like the style and colours although the forum status icons at the botom
would look a lot better if they were horizontal see my sig

Damn that is a lot of announcements (Rules and Important Information) lol
Your new thread and so on icons look great....

I thought i had a lot of forums...but i think you top mine
Theres n not much going on in the Whats going on box but this can be cause im a guest.....

On the whole....apart from the speed of the sight, i like it m8, well done....
