Ooops, didn't see that part. But you're right, you don't need a complicated template-looking forum to attract members.

Content and interesting posts is what is going to keep people coming back and posting. You have to give them something worth talking about.

I agree 100%

So basically, I should make my own layout or edit one of the ones I have already... that doesnt seem that hard.

About the content on my site, what do you think?

You need to make the concept of your site clearer. Is it a general discussion forum?

Its Alien Entertainment; videos, music, flash games, etc. Does that bring the concept to the first time guests?
