Please also recommend some nice themes for both joomla and phpbb which match each other.

Regarding your forum...

I'd suggest designing/modiying your logo that answers the question to any vistor coming to your forum: What's In It For Me For Being Here?

Right now it doesn't.

Eg. I visted the forum and really have no idea what it's about. Hence natural reaction is to leave.

So add text like:

> Tips & Tricks for X
> Secrets About X
> Facts About X
> X Discussion Forum

X is the subject your forum is about.

This is the 5th time that i've looked at your site since you posted for a review and i'm still not sure what to tell you. There's nothing enticing, nothing that catches my interest, emotions, or spikes my interest. I'm not sure if its the mud color scheme of brown tones, the very bland logo, the very limited content... there's just nothing (for me personally) that would have me coming back, other than for an eval

I'd suggest to spice the site up, bring some elements that have that "wow" factor. Congratulations on getting Joomla configured, i hated it, that in itself is an accomplishment.
The forum contains the same brown/earth/boring colors. The logo is tiny, etc.
You have all the frame work in place, evolve from this point.

Overall, i think the best way to sum my impressions into one key sentence:
You're missing an enticing visual theme.

Thanks For the reviews.
The site is meant only for the people of Karnataka.I just wanted know about the forum design and colours.
I will try to make it visually enticing and i will try to make the topic of the site more clear.

Can anybody suggest a good theme for joomla and phpbb which match each other well?
