Display/Layout
1.Index Appearance & Organization(7/10):
When I first came to the forum, it led me to the index so let's start the review to the index, I must say that the forum is dark but it's looking good!, now, the first thing I noticed is the banner, the banner looks good and partners with the colors of the forum, so the top portion of the forum looks good with the banner however, the banner will look good if you will extend it's width or by centering it, so just get it fixed, further more on the top portion of the forum, the scrolling message there is looking good and gives some important informations to the members, nice work, as I scroll down, I saw a very smooth presence of forums and categories on the index, looks very organized! however, I noticed that it looks a bit inactive with forums some forums having less and 0 posts, so i will give suggestion here later, the bottom part is looking good, nothing wrong there, I forgot also, you had a snowy effect on the forum, looks nice, gives essence of Christmas, nice work here.
2.Categories & Forums(5/10):
For now, the number of categories and forums on the index are fine, although they're considered less, it's good to maintain a less forums for a starter forum, so nice work here, nice positionings & organization of forums too, I can easily find important forums on the index but there are some things wrong also, first, may I suggest you to have separate forums for announcement and suggestions than combining them, it will just confuse members if there's mixed topic of announcements and suggestions on the forum named 'announcements/suggestions', this will reduce confusions and will look more professional so try to fix that, also the category 'chit-chat sport' should be placed at the bottom part as it is only for off-topic or in other words, they don't have any relations on the topic of the forum, so try to fix that, now, I'd seen that there are lots of posts on several forums, nice work since you only have 25 members, however, this are the forums that have been left dusted: 'interior & ice' and 'wanted', there are also some forums having no posts so my suggestion here is to merge/combine forums for the meantime unless the forum has gained more activity, so try to adjust those things
3.Forum Color Scheme & Layout(4/10):
As I'd mentioned above, you had a nice work having snowy effect on the forum which makes your members and guests feel the Christmas sensation, nice work, The forum's colors are mainly black and gray, not that really looking eye catching, you had too much dark colors on the forum, the index is also looking plain with only those colors, so my suggestion here is to have other colors than dark colors only, try having medium colors such as blue,green,red etc. or try also having more graphics that can make the index more interesting, if necessary, have a design on the background to make it not looking plain, so ya, try fixing these also and it will look good.
Display/Layout Total:: 16/30
