Why we chose .us domain,
We chose it because .us have 2 meaning, thats:
1. United states of America - our main language is english.
2. the meaning of our domain meaning will be : we are fx crews.

In our forum we will get mentors that will teach others, in short (school)
well for now mentors will not get anything, but as our forum will gain and we have more activity and as we see our mentors are working hard they will get some payments.
and btw school is free.

now 2nd part:
as we all know in gfx forum there are battles but what is with us that , in our battle category named (LAOM - large art of month) the winner will have a award picture and also a 1$ prize to his paypal. (we will not give the prize of 1$ every month but in our many events,)

3rd part: we do not have V.I.P'S ( the forum is totally free but you can earn by your gfx skills and mentors earn well too...)

4th: we give our member to create their own team, and the team members will have a special picture ( we are working on the plugin)

5th:
we aren't using some free or nulled forum scripts, plugins. themes.
we have bought our own forum script and etc.

Well that's all. please review our site fxcrew
thanks.

Advertisers: Those that help us gain members and also will have respect on our forum, alway's

How will you help us gain members?
Are you going to other forums and posting in every section about us?:

Need to be real carefull about the second statement there. If you go in to every section of another forum and all you talk about is your forum, that can, and most likely will be, considered spamming. That can lead to being listed as a spammer and that can hurt.
Another course of action would be to contact admins about link swapping.
I'm not real crazy about the splash page. If you have mature content that's fine but it appears you don't so I'd consider removing it.
The url lands on the vbcmps page with no way to get to the forums. Except... If you click on a thread then back track the breadcrumbs you can navigate to the main forum index. Long winded way to get to see the content. The search engine bots most likely won't do this. Remember Content is King. If they can't see it, they can't crawl it.
Get onboard with the search engines. Yahoo!, Google, Bing, MSN, maybe some of the low key engines like Dogpile.
Other than all that it's clean and neat.
