Need all sorts of opinions 75% finished in Dev.

[ManicMe]

I'm not quite finished with this yet but I really want reviews, insights, and opinions before I go the last 25%

TipPros.com

So far I have over 130 Forum Categories/sub-cats, and 300 directory catorgories (adding more as we speak.)

It's a network site for social and/or sharing information. The concept revolves around a site for questions, answers, tips, and advice.

I've covered a lot of subjects and topics in the forum, and plan to fine tune them soon (same with directory.)

Everything is free including directory submissions.

You can actually submit your own site if you want pre-launch to test it out for me (gets you a backlink.)

So my questions are:

Hows the overall layout?
Hows the forum?
Hows the categories/topics covered?

What should I add?
What should I take away?
Hows the concept?

I'll ask design questions after the site is finished, but the over color schema is going to revolve around what I have there now.

Thanks to all in advance

Also adding soon:
A script (or writing or modifying one) where users can write a tutorial.
Questions and Answers script.
