Please review Internet Marketing Forum

Your new responsive style upgrade looks really good, I looked at it in Internet Explorer on windows phone 8. The header could be smaller with a smaller logo, and the navbar items would serve better in a hidden list that appears regardless of where you are in the page and slides away when not needed. I also noticed the ads usually visible in the side blocks are gone, is this intentional? There were some quirks in the message center, mainly button alignment and blocks side by side rather than one under another. Looks like you are on your way to a fully functional mobile style that works as today's readers would expect. Good job.

Thanks Replicant for your reviews

I'm curious why I could not press "Thank" button on your reply, it is showing error.

Yeah you are right, sidebar block is not nessarry to show on mboile screens, it needs space for main content thus I hid it.

I didn't understand your meaning on this, can you take a screenshot?

This is what I was talking about. The editor is squeezed over to the right, smilie box is needing some attention, and the list items in the left block, should be in a dropdown menu or at least tidied up. Nokia phone resolution 320x533

Hi Replicant, thanks for noticing this.

It is already in responsive for that area, now you can check private messages in your inbox or writing a new message...on your mobile phones without any problems

Honestly, I didn't use mobile style which made from vBulletin, responsive is better than a mobile style if compare to get better rankings on search engine and user experience.

That is always true because responsive design keeps all the functions while mobile style can remove these functions to save the space when viewing on it.

I don't know why you have the rule in place about having to upload an avatar or your profile is removed, that is so annoying and I imagine would only limit use. I joined just before you had a outage for about a day, and I noticed when I came back you had a lot less members.

Also the postage count of 24 is kind of annoying, I just want to advertise my logos and domains for sale, I don't want to waste time making idle chit chat.

I never understand why established forums don't get most users just want a easy experience. I wonder how many users these policies have alienated.

Ugh how rude are you webmastersun!

I did everything you wanted, got my profile picture set up, tried my best to engage in chit chat with the end goal of advertising my domain for sale. What's the deal- why ban my IP? Cause you can't handle a bit of constructive criticism on here?!

Good riddance.

So sad to hear that but may be you posted spams and didn't follow our forum rules thus our Mods banned you.

Are you sure you have read forum rules before posting?

It has more reasons for this but I can say it's helping forums, other members and yourself when you use your avatar, it looks more friendly

In the past, I got tons of spam posts or classified ads when allow new members to post to offers sections without first contributions. Require any posts first help improve forums and also build your reputations for a new member.

They dropped tons of links and leave the forum without any conversations. We are building a quality forum thus we need to manage both discussions and ads as well.

Not sure what you are saying.

Also, please note, here's a review thread for Webmaster Sun, not for reviewing about our forum rules or something else. If you need my support on our forum, don't hesitate to PM me, I am ready to support you if you feel difficult in using the forum

Thank you!

I agree with Replicant, visited your forum and it's really awesome, responsive, clean and professional. Maybe need to improve on loading speed by optimizing images on the home page.

That layout of yours is spectaculor! I'd love to achieve something similar for my forums main page to provide a more e-zine feel. Either way, this is without a doubt one of the best (if not the best) vbulletin layouts I have yet to come across

I could spend $1000 for this great review

vBulletin has many cool themes out there and I am sure you have just visited some vB themes before so that thought that our forum is one of the best ones that you have come across.

Thanks for your feedback!
