Default Direct-Downloading Cricket Website

Installed a previous backup of my forum and configured and added lots and lots of mods!

Check out showthread, forumhome , navbar etc

It would be true to say i completely configured it using vb.org

i second FRDS...

you have a new site, why ask the visitors to donate to make it live?!... it's just to ask for money ?!.. ask your parents first... you will see what they say.

the only moment you will be able to have cash from visitors is when your site is in danger and the members want to keep it alive... but an empty site?... nah...

I have a few things to say, and those are mixed in terms of positiveness. On the good side, your site has got a whole load of members for a very young site... but the bad is that they obviously aren't posting. I mean how can you have nearly THREE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED members and less than 70 posts? That's a great member count, but a darn well awful post count for the forum size. Ask why they aren't posting, try and get them to post. You could have a great forum if you did just that!

Secondly, your forum is a bit much overkill. You have empty forums, and nearly two pages of gimmicks in the first part of the forum a guest will see. Sure, some is useful, like the cricket stuff, and the shoutbox, but the rest is just a waste of space. Use ONE navbar, and remove all that big block of 'donate now' stuff.

Thirdly, your forum looks good in terms of style. However, it's not really related to your topic, and the style does not instantly tell me it's a cricket based forum. The forum icons are good, but you need a way more themed banner, and a few more cricket icons to reinforce the point. You've fell into the trap of premade styles, I think (is it a premade?) in that it has no real relevance to the topic. It could fit any kind of forum...

Smilies seem quite good, but you need more cricket based ones and sport themed ones. At least those are certainly not default.

Finally, as said before, it's seemingly absolute OVERKILL. Link effects? Table at bottom like vBulletin.org? Few hundred modifications? Keep the stuff linked in the navbar, but cut down on the rest and remove the link hover effects, they're just offputting.

Oh, that explains it then. You may want to tell them, when the site is launched that it's open so they get more active...
