My political forum has been running now for nearly six years. We started out on EZBoard in 2003 and moved to our dedicated .com address in March 2004. I have recently redesigned the website and reskinned the forum. The archive forum and current website are hosted on .com, whilst the forum since 2005 has been on our .co.uk domain.

I would appreciate constructive criticism/advice on how I can improve it further.

The website is viewable here: Political Discussion

From there you can then navigate to the forum.

Many Thanks!

Dave

A great looking site, I really like your banner, is it intentional that the flag of the UK is in the shadow of the Stars and Stripes ;-)

The one thing I have against your site is that you use white text on a black background which coupled with a small font size makes it hard to read. It would be improved if users could choose the size of font. This is easy to correct, use a relative font-size and not absolute.

I have booked marked your forum and will return and possibly contribute.

Good luck.

CONS

- the font is bad (too small), it's white (should be light gray at least)
- the blue header tags are hard to read and too small
- the links are default blue AND on a black background! That's a no-no! Use AT LEAST light blue
- the two red advertisements are annoying, too bright, and again, bright red does not go with black or blue
- the site is not really organized, you can tell that it's about POLITICS and CURRENT AFFAIRS, but since the font is so small, many visitors visiting the homepage would quickly leave (unless they had a good reason to stay)
- the general design looks very outdated

PROS

- nice forum, seems to be very active, and with a nice community
- with so many users you seem to have hit a niche (which through a better design and more on-site content could bring you a lot more traffic)
- nice header image
- apart from the poor design the organization of the site (page-wise) is very good

I like the concept. The colors are little dark, might want to contrast it a little bit. Other than that, looks professional.
