way way too many forums for a new board... or too many boards for a new forum, i can never remember which round to put it.

but either way theres too many places for people to post, and it all looks empty. if you squashed it down to just the sub-cats (i.e. entertainment, common etc.) you would have a higher chance of success it getting it going.

Like the portal, the skin design is fairly clean and nice on the eyes for an off the shelf. I am not such a fan of the black against the grey though. It looks too much like your elements are 'floating'.

I have to agree with hitman... far too many forums. I seldom ever see busy sites with that many forums - reason being that its far too easy to overlook a forum while browsing around. I would crunch them all down to about 5 and then expand as your traffic grows.

Just my 2 cents

Keep on it!

Style is ok, but a little bit slow i think. :nervous:

Server was slow?

I never had problems with it. It's HostRocket, very good service.

First thing I noticed, it loads quite slow. I can't say for sure why that is, but it can be much faster.

Easy on the eyes, nice, smooth style. A few suggestions:

-Move the shoutbox to the bottom of the forum. Two reasons, it deters posting on the forums and makes your users scroll just to get to the main parts of your forum listings.
-Too many forums. Way too many. Consense it to under 15 at MOST.

Good work.
