Hey,

I think you should re make your logo, the red, green and blue don't go together very well, and they are rather bright.

Get rid of the spacing between Chat and Register on the nav'.

Your content boxes, the blue strip? Make the text there white, would look alot better than black.

Maybe add a white background?

Looks like the default PHPBB maintitle. I've got a vast selection of maintitles if you want, PM me.

Forum needs advertising. Try link swapping and getting some friends to go on as members.

Get a new banner that suits the site and theme well.

And as Hitch said,
"Get rid of the spacing between Chat and Register on the nav'."

Hello, To start off with my review on your site. The site is very clean, including the posts on the Forum ;p, Try making Threads on any forums, so that members will just reply on your thread. its like your starting the thread, so that your site would show some 'activeness'.

The Banner, The banner is not bad. but you need to make a new one to have that greatness on your site/forum.

Are you sure thats a PhpBB Forum ? Cause the images looks like an InvisionFree board. >_<

Thank You,
Janine

thanks guys for your review.
it is just 4 days old site and im still doing testing before starting full operation. so trafic is not that good.
im trying to make another banner but the problem is im not a good illastrator.
Actually i really wanted to get rid of the space in the menubar. but im not finding anything that can be put on the space. maybe another new feature can be put there.

yes it is phpbb. but really modified. i have installed 20+ mods and also modified a lot by myself. few icons are taken from webwiz forums. few from ipb 1.3 one even taken from msn spaces

it is very hibrid.

Hi. First of all, I really like how you integrated the site with the forum using a portal mod. Good job on this. Second, I really like the style of your forum. Also it's nice that quite a lot of mods have been added to the forum. Now it needs members. Advertise it, post it on forums, post in link directories, if you want paid advertising, then go to sites that offer advertising space for a little payment per month.

I'd say it's a very good job for the start.

Overall Rating: 9/10
