TalkFC Football Forums - vBulletin 3.5x
http://www.talkfc.com/footballforum/index.php

Originally Launched April 2005 as Goal4Glory. Relaunched January 2006 as TalkFC. Redesigned May 2006.

The previous design was also submitted for review here, and I would like to thank everyone for their comments back then... and thank you in advance for your critiques of the redesign.

Interesting use of color, however the orange and grey/silver work well together.

I'd get rid of some of the ads on there. It is a bit ad-locked and if I was there looking for a football site to join, I'd probably not go back simply for that reason.

Excellent use of the siderbar :up:

One thing that actually took me by surprize (literally, I physically gasped) is your postbit. The rest of the forums are very linier in a vertical manner, even down to your page background, so I was looking forward to seeing a wonderful postbit_legacy. I really don't think that the horizontal postbit works with the rest of your design, but of course that's just my opinion.

I couldn't agree more with peterska2 final comment about the use of a horizontal postbit which totally contradicts the general layout of the rest of your forums. Nice dual implementation of avatars as signatures too

Which is probally why you choose a horizontal postbit over a legacy styled one.

Very nice and easy to follow. I like it!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
