Thanks Benj,

Been working non stop of this place trying to improve it and get it listed all over the place. It is definitely a work in progress.

The subforum hack was very easy to do, if you need help let me know.


I would love to collaborate with your site, drop me a PM here or email me at mike@carforums.net and we'll talk more.

Anyone else want to critique the forum?

Pretty good looking. I am not sure about the skin as it is just plain, to me.

That's what I was going for.....simple yet professional. I think it looks good, definitely not a cookie cutter design IMO.

First problem is that there are way too many forums for a forum with 125 members. It's not entirely necessary to make a new forum for every car make you can think of. It's just going overboard. Condense and expand as you get more activity.

Your header image is nice but the navbar kinda ruins it for me. Maybe if it was more graphical...

Otherwise, nice.

I have to agree. I have never seen so many forums on a new board in my life. No one is going to want to start a thread because they will wonder if anyone will see it.

Thanks for the suggestions guys.... however it seems to be doing fine as is. Each forum is getting more and more posts, remember the site is only 1 week old and we already have 125 members. That's not bad IMO...

As for the navbar being graphical, we are working on re-doing the top section to fit the logo. We'll hopefully have it done within a week or two. Right now we are focusing 100% on promotion and SEO the fun stuff lol
