You might want to think about the size of a reply in a thread. One little reply is taking up the entire screen because of all the images (Avatar and Siggy). You might want to consider schlumping the member's name and info over to the side, it would make for easier navigation.

-Absolutely pointless splash page. I could understand if it led to more than one area of your site but because it doesn't, I don't see the need at all for it.
-That 'register now' popup won't get you new members, just annoy the hell out of guests when they're trying to browse your forum to see WHY they should join up.

And consider yourself lucky you have a decent member base too, those forums are VERY common and so you've done great to get the member base you have. The trick now is to maintain it.

Well, its not really the point that it's annoying, it goes off after 30 seconds...but if all of you say that it sucks, I might take it off...

How have you been advertising to get that many members? I'm kind of struggling to get members at my own forum http://www.hostaddicts.com, I was just wondering if you could give me a few tips

Doesn't matter, it's annoying for that 30 seconds and you could lose a potential member in that time.
