Hello i recently made my own forum http://coding-gaming.com/ well i havent done much just installed template and i like it how about you? shall i change? and about expanding i spent some mone on advertising and seems it's not working at all people comes but not posting any suggestions for how to get members? guys help me if you got time post some topics on my website or any link exchange with any forums for free?

Myself , I do not like dark forum designs.

I agree -- it's too dark, and the colors make you jump back from the monitor.

Think about background color.
Site got login option at the bottom, better to put at top.
Got adsense at the bottom too. I suggest you to put somewhere on top. So that it may generate some more $ for you.

Yep I agree with the others, to dark for me. The no new post icon can't be seen either as it blends in with the background, not sure if this is the way it is meant to be or not.

I can see why you have put your Adsense down the bottom, might work for you but all the literature will tell you to put it up the top somewhere.

Goodluck with getting members.

like the site it is a nice forum good layout I just do not like the dark colors that you used other than that I think it looks great good job

I

Don't like the black background sorry.

thank you for reviews i really like black background but seems i will need to improve it to some other colour.
and ads it looked good for me and aswell near login so it catches the eyes but oh well will think about placing on top then. thank you very much.

looks good

all about the dark design...... it is tough to read long time... pls try something lighter..
