Website Review and Suggestions

**Garala** · 10-19-2008, 02:10 PM

Hi,

I've acquired a new music forum few weeks ago, and I've added a new skin, re-organized the sections, and now I am here asking you guys.

What else should I do to improve the forum?
How does everything look, the sections, organization, style?
As a guest, would it convince you to join? If not, why not?

Please give me your honest feedback and suggestions.

Thanks.

im not a lover of a shout box on a forum due to its full of messages anyway, but everyone has different opinions on shout boxes.

Everything looks good and is nice and clean, i deffinetly like blue on a forum skin, as a guest i would register and i think i might just do.

:-)

Thanks for feedback, I was told by many that the shoutbox should be out. But my members love it. I'll have to see...

Any other feedback guys? I would love to hear your honest suggestions and feedback.

I agree with hairpin. Your site is nice and clean. Unfortunately the blue theme makes it look like most of the other forums out and about these days. Your subject matter is not my thing, so no if I had stumbled upon your site, I wouldn't be inclined to join - but that's just me.

To be honest, the forum default theme looks like a default theme for all forums. In order to really attract guests, find a unique skin for the forums and maybe investing a little money for a banner to suit the skin.

Your forums are very well organized and neat.

As a guest, I would have to think about joining. It's not really something that is like "Wow! I'm joining right now!" but, still looks like a professional forum.

I find it very similar to this forum. Try to recreate your forum theme. Perhaps an image of a man and a woman's shadows with headsets on the header would do. Add some curve lines with scattered notes symbols. Well, I guess that's how a music forum should look like.

you should change the background every day/week for the artist of the day/week that would be cool
