What exactly do you want reviewed? You have an out-of-box vB 4.x install with generic forum index icons. Looks like the content and member participation is doing just fine though.

I'd recommend you immediately commission a logo design at least, as the forum has no real identity. The logo should be specific to the niche and if you can - why not custom your forum index icons to match the logo. It can be done and your membership base will likely appreciate you more for having done it

You're welcome. I do quite a bit of design freelance.
Let me know if I can be of assistance to you.

Looks lean and mean. Good stuff. Love the forum icons. Good postbit.

Logo needs work. Header is too big for no reason.

You have great activity. Lacks style, and your footer needs some attention. I am impressed that you have that much activity with just a straight forward default vbulletion. You have a good forum, depending on how much you like your forum I would do what the above stated and commision a full custom design. Job well done. You are the 1%

I think it's a great start.

Cons
Header too big.
Remove the '400,000+ posts' text in logo.
Place the header link ad text somewhere else.
Below navbar banners is not showing up ... I see a big white space.
I don't like the custom forum icons. It makes the whole site feel immature.
