Noh, my site is vbulletin. For the frontpage I use vbadvanced CMPS. For my advertising places I use phpadsnew.

Thanks for the suggestion, I would like to keep this thread up because I LOVE suggestions.

Thanks again

I find your website ok but I think that your colors are a bit too dark. You should put lighter colors. It's very hard to concentrate and read the different articles.

The top bar is great. the rest of the page is a little hard to read. the google adds are a little disturbing with their white background. the top bar is a little big (hight) on 800x600 the top bar is just about the only thing the person sees.

Suggestions:
move login to just bellow the top bar (horizontal one, maybe incorporate it into your top bar you have space on the left)

ditch the google links (if it stays make it part of your design at present it looks like a last minute adding)

lighten the text to maybe #EAEAFF

prehaps move the google adds to the left verticle bar but use some style there.

i agree with steveneven about the users and login

conclusion
GREAT SITE exept for Google adds

the background is fine but the font colour is too dark lighten it a bit it will make a vast difference

the forum "by" line and the "replies / reply" boxes need to stick out a little more

let me know if any changes are made and i will be happy to have a look

solid design to blue for me

I dont know if you changed it since the begining but i dont see anything that they're talking about. its a great site...

My question for everyone is how they came up with the $300 for vbulletin? I have no problem coming up with it, but i have a problem stepping up and spending it on a website that i'm not sure will have the potential to be huge and profitable...

I guess you all have faith.. (thats great!)

maybe if i follow through with a website and put some serious effort into growing it... then i can imagine spending the money to get the "high quality" forums....

Looks great ! Always like darkish sites...

But when I went to visit the -arcade- I was a bit dissapointed. Before playing I had to login, which made me leave the site emediatly. Maybe make 1 or 2 games available for innocent bystanders. Why would I register if I have no idea of what to expect ?!

could just be me...but it seemed to load a little slow. other than that, looks great!

I think we all know no one actually pays for these things.

Looks like all the work has payed of, that is one awesome looking site.

Man, you have no idea how happy I am to hear that..no idea.
