I currently run eCybris.com and I am looking for any comments and suggestions others may have. Many have said I should cut back on the number of boards but what should I keep and what should I lose? Also I am interested in finding out if you have any suggestions for new forums. Thanks for any help you can provide.
The link to my site is http://www.ecybris.com.

I deas on what you can combine:

The News Room and Current Events
What The Beep and Anything Goes
Self Improvement and Dreams & Desires

Get Connected is well organized....
Tech Support and Tech Connection can be merged.

The advice Center can be cut down into may be TWO Forums
The Whole Underground section can be combined into one Forum

You have FOUR General Toppic "Anything" type of Forums......Get rid of them and make just 1 BS Forums...

I think you have a good number of posts so far, but you need to consolidate htem more to make it more appealing.

Hope it helps.

Yeah way too many forums to start off. It makes the place look dead.

As well as the amount of forums, your banner doesn't really match with your scheme at all. I'd put something there that sticks with the scheme.

Otherwise, nice.

How about now? I drastically reduced the number of forums. Also, Tony what banner where you refering too?

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