Website Review and Suggestions

#1 (permalink)

Ok so since last time i have taken on board all the points people have made on improving the design of my forum/site

the index/homepage is still under construction however, i have spent alot of time re designing the forum. I purchased some quality stock images and i think the results are very good and 1000x better than what it was


I am very happy with the outcome

please take a look, feel free to sign up and also let me know what you think

Looks pretty good to me.
Nice job.

3 Things

1) I like the random image banner that kind of captures the
essence of what the forum is about. Thats good. However
it presumes that visitors are going to log in enough times to
get the benefit of that. I'd consider putting up a JavaScript rotating
banner. Do a search on "jQuery - image galleries".

2) Your title tags a bit too generic. "Beer - Women - Sport" is very general. I think you need to get the word "Forum" in there at least. And why is there "Powered by.." in the title? Is that part of your deal with the hosting company? If its not absolutely necessary get rid of it.

3) Its really important to have a search box on any forum. I couldnt find
one.

Best of luck.

I really like it

1) like the logos that you used for each separate forum.
2) Very easy to navigate through. The only thing I noticed that you may want to change is that when you click the banner at the top (below the navigation) it opens the forum index up in a new window. You may want to change this to parent or put in a custom advertisement or something there...
3) I like how you targeted guys then broke it down to the things that guys like. That is genius!

I agree with this

But I love the site. cant think of much to improve it. I saved it I spend time on this kind of forum a lot I need something like yours to relax and have fun.
