CompuForums - New Look, New Software!

Hello,

Some of you may remember my site, http://www.compuforums.info/

Well, I've made some changes - infact, we've switched to MyBB.

This time, I'm designing the skin myself - it's based on the default, and changes are always being made.

The forum is open and ready, and you're free to sign up - in fact, there is a mystery prize for the first person who reaches 500 posts (You heard it first on NamePros!)

So, I can do with some reviews - Constructive criticism appreciated as well as positve comments!

I think the header text and logo is attractive but you should use a background color. The layout of the forum is good. Just try to keep the forum active and get in a lot of members.

Good Luck!

Thanks.

I plan on adding a background colour soon

The design does not look professional. The colors are decent, although I think the teal is too bright. Other than that I would just say redo the logo.

What was wrong with phpbb? PhpBB will always be better than mybb :P.
Also, don't change the logo. I like the old one :P

phpBB has far less features - and in my opinion myBB is much better - far less security issues - phpBB needs to relase pactces every few months, but myBB is still in development and is far more secure and has many more features.

i like the design of the site but just the header looks a bit un professinal

 

[Masahiro]

Well, I feel it does look professional - but it's not a business site - it's supposed to reflect the overall modern and techy feel to the site.
