Default ofHellfire.com a World of Warcraft guild site

I am the webmaster for a World of Warcraft guild site. I am interested in reviews of the "Wrath" theme on my website. In about 7 days I plan to make it the defualt an want to know if it's as good as I think it is. I use IE 7 as my browser an I just checked it out in Firefox an it all seems working as intented. If you find any of the defualt vbulletin graphis let me know, theres alot of them. I logged out an could see a good bit of the site as a guest. The theme originaly was designed by Cloudrunner who unfortunatly took the files down. I can post a screen from the original design so you can see I made extensive changes. First image should bo my site, second(ScreenDefaultForum.jpg) is the original theme.

Link to theme: http://www.ofhellfire.com/index.php?styleid=10

:/ It's a big one, isn't it?

That being said -- It looks nice.. Very "WoWy" I would personally rethink some of those large images and try to shrink them down mainly for bandwidth reasons, but whatever.

KTBleeding, is that document checker something you can link to? I'd like to recheck the page to see if I'm improving it. Thanks guys, looks like I'm at the optimizing load times stage.

Like what you've done with the place, style works well, nice structure and layout.

That news script you have for loading the caption and thread titles with the background images, where did you get that javascript source from?

That is the famous Joomla FrontPage Slideshow, the "tt" template. I found it easy to work with an customize, it's an imported php file that has the html hardcoded in it. So it doesn't use templates which sucks cuase it doesn't quite work with the other styles. At some point I'd like to try an integrate it more so it can use templates. Thanks
