BuyPoe.com is about a year and 2 months old with approximately 7000 members.

Just wanting any reviews, advice,

Thanks for taking the time.

Great looking site there Poe,

I'm not generally a fan of dark themes but they do fit the genre well and you do a great job with this one.
One thing I found is the navbar doesn't collapse so well on thinner resolutions, I'd look at including a min-width directive in the CSS to avoid this.
Perhaps look at theming your wiki, it looks a bit out of place in white, but then again great job in getting the wiki embedded into your site with common logons etc.

On your front page in the News section I'd play around with distinguishing the two columns of articles from each other more, perhaps a subtle verticle border between them to stop the eye merging the columns. Maybe you could play around with two similar shades of grey with one for the site background and one for each content block. Not even sure if it would work, and the place already looks great.

Hope this helps some,
Moses.

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