Before you start the comment & suggestion, I would want to say the forum is still under maintenance.
So no flames. :wouhou:

  • First impression: Where is the forum? You only have four forums..which look like one seens you use the 4 in 1 of Jalokim Tutorials..I did register and did not get any other forums to see. Where are all the members you have? I can't see any posts. The background isn't fixed ( I have a big screen) and that gives a bad template look. And your banner needs improvement.

    Advice:
    fix your background and forum placing Smile to have a better look in all viewers and browsers. add links to your forums , not only to your images.

    Score: 10/15

    Layout:

  • Images: Banner is ok.. your forum icons aren't exactly cool.. A for announcements E for events..ok your inbox, sentbox, and some buttons are in french or from another theme

    Advice:
    fix the wrong icons and add something stylish to your banner to make it look more to your forum, its kinda in his own world there, and change the background image, its just not my style maybe , but really you could have something better, in mix with the colors of your forum, it doesnt go nice.

    Score: 10/15
  • Colors: The colors are dark and fit propably to your forum, although something has to change or it gets odd.

    Advice: Change the background of the forum maybe? To make the banner go better in to it , and your background maybe deep grey.. But not that black. you also may want to change the categories row colors. Although this is not a must since it goes with the theme of your forum.

    Score: 13/15
  • Categories: Really nothing here, I see you have the main categories, but there is nothing inside so I don't see the meaning and what they are used for.

    Advice: Add some more categories for your members to discuss, like wars, your wars, and in general take a look here http://www.god-makers.com/forum.htm , as a CS forum you should have something more for your members, or why have a forum? make a site

    Score: 5/10

    Total score for layout: 28/40


    Activities:

  • Members: 84 members, but they are not active.. if this is because you are under maintenance ..you shouldn't have asked a review that time then ^^

    Advice: Make some more forums to keep members active and advertise to get more members for you and your forum. But for the moment you are classy for a CS clan Smile

    Score: 10/15

  • Staff: you have a moderator.. what you do with it? you have no posts.. Designers? since you don't provide gfx creations why have something like that?

    Advice:Create the forums as I said above and make your members use the forum , then recruit some friends to help you moderate, but keep it low..for the moment I think you shouldn't have anyone part from you since , the forum is dead.

    Score: 5/15
  • Statistics: Nice stats ..84 members..5 posts???

    Advice: As I told you , if you want to have a forum, you need to keep it active! advertise, add interesting forums and posts and give your forum so life.

    Score: 1/10
  • Language: I cant say.. I can only see from 5 posts..no sms ..ok , no full phrases though.

    Score: 4/5

    Total activities score: 20/45


    Ask again a review when you do what I told you..

Just to get back on your review.
About my icons like A for announcement E for event section. Does it really need to be changed to something stylish or what?

Background
What kind of style are you trying to prefer? I didn't get it too much, You mean something grayish.
What if I'll make it as purely black.

Banner
The banner should be placed into more something stylish and hardcoric right?

Christos it is nice review. But If you tell:

" Where is the forum? You only have four forums..which look like one seens you use the 4 in 1 of Jalokim Tutorials..I did register and did not get any other forums to see. Where are all the members you have? I can't see any posts. The background isn't fixed ( I have a big screen) and that gives a bad template look. And your banner needs improvement."

you shouldn't give 10/15... I would have given 6/15 or 5/15
