Default AngelsPunishment.net
Hey all,

I have a message board for the band Lacuna Coil. It's called Angel's Punishment. I'm looking for a review of the skin and just how well things are running so far. The board has been open since August.

Thanks!

Pros: Nice color

Cons: The width is too wide did not fit my screen

lol Tommy you cant go around just suggesting people change their skins.

I really like the design very smooth and clean, the red white and black works well together

The font may be a little bit small for some people though.

How would I fix that width problem? I know some people still use 800x600...I just checked and you're right, it's too wide to even read.

good color combo - provides a lot of contrast

you could change it to a fluid width = 95% instead of your 1080 fixed width

That real dark background is depressing....which also makes it very hard to distinguish the header/logo area.

(Note: This review is in Firefox 2.0.0.1, not my usual IE)

Your logo is nice, but almost too simple. It seems like you could do more with the space to the right, but I am not sure what as just dropping ads there would spoil the simple look.

The Google ad is well placed, but a bit large for the area....I think they have a narrow selection that would fit perfectly here.

There is very little on the page to tell me what the forum is about. Where you have the wanted message would be a good spot for a quick blurb about the forum. With the space saved by going to a narrow Google ad you can fit more info here...make sure to use keywords you want associated with your site.

The forum icons are well done and have a dark feel about them, fitting well with the rest of the site. However the forum link icon feels out of place (/statusicon/forum_link.gif). This ine should be made to match the others, using the symbol at the background and with the arrow to show it is a link forum.

You have a good amount of forums for the traffic. Keep an eye on the community needs and expand as they need to.

In all you have done a great job so far. Keep up the good work

The header area looks better, did you lighten the background color up some?
