Into model airplanes? This went online on 1/1/06. We currently are taking on aproximately 650 posts/day and we're growing at a rapid tick. I have done extensive modifications to a number of areas of VB with only 4 hacks operating internally on the forums. Please check it out and tell me what you think!

Model airplane stuff, if you haven't seen giant scale airplanes before, it's pretty interesting.

Thanks!

the main page looks awesome (and if you don't mind my asking...what Portal is it?)

the forum itself looks decent...you've done very well at masking the fact that most of the theme is vb default...though is still that bit of 'defaulty' look to it

the navbar really adds a nice touch as well.

Looks good. I think you should change the default vB theme because it destroys the cohesive theme... possibly integrating some skin. Bookmarked the site, though.

It's got a lot of promise there. You have a good structure and everything else to go with it, but as previously suggested, I would be tempted to change away from the default theme even if it is just a color change to match your header then it blends better.

For such a new site it's pretty amazing, and some of those planes are really cool.

Nice job! I love the header!

There are honestly so many links on the right side of the main page (and very small) I can't honestly see anyone trying to use them.... Perhaps less links and bigger font..

8/10 the only bad thing was so many forums, but they all seemed to get activity so thats always a good thing then :yesway:

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