Thanks!

Generalities

1. First Impressions (Score: 17/20):
   When I first entered the site, I was totaly amazed with that home page. I don't eevn know how to make a homepage like that yet! I loved how theer were links and images to sertain topics like Graphics or Announcments etc. It's nice because then you don't need to enter the forum and scroll up or down to find the are you want to post in. But for the Announcment Category I think you should put the Rules in a new Category/forum. I think you should make a forum for Rules & Regulations ranked under the Announcments.
   
2. Categories & Forums (Score: 8/10):
   I really loved the Categories and Forums, especially the Tutorials section for guides and stuff, it really helps people with certain things. I loved it also because it was very clear and clean with the descriptions of the forums. I would like to see a are for Packages because most forum sites have it with promotion or help sites.

Forum Style

1. Major Graphics (Score: 8/10):
   Banner
   I really like your banner but it is Gray too, I would like more colorful colors with the forum layout and the banner too mch gray makes me think I'm in a weird nightmare or something.
   Navigation Bar
   I really liked the Navigation bar, because of it's capital letters, it also stands out cause of the orange line that underlined the words. But still too much gray.
   
2. Forum Layout & Color Scheme (Score: 6/10):
   Personally, I do not really like the theme of the forum site, well I know why you ask why but it's because it's too much Gray colors. I think it should be a theme with mixed colors. Make it more professional.
   
3. Images & Icons (Score: 6/10):
   I don't really like the icons, I would like to see ones that are custom made and I would like to see creativity I really do not like people with no creativity. The New Posts, No new Posts etc. are plain and boring. I would reccommend better graphics for the forum icons and images.

Usergroups

1. Population of Groups (Score: 6/10):
   Barley anyone in the groups, there are only staff groups and a Premium Membership group. I think you should make a group for normal registered members. I also think there should be a V.I.P group for people who have leaved staff, also I think there should be a group for Packagers. The staff groups have a total of 2 staff members, only Marc and hypokill. I think you should hire more staff because there are barley anyone in the groups. Members group for just registered members and V.I.P group for people who have left the staff or have retired from being a staff member for a certain reason, and Packagers which Package stuff for forums or other sites.
   
2. Staff Groups / User Groups (Score: 5/10):
   I like the group names and stuff but too less population in the groups, all normal members have no group but having the rank "members". Staff groups, oh goodness nobody but 2 people in staff.

I would like to see a area for Packages because most forum sites have it with promotion or help sites.

That's not necessary. My forum is a website design and development community.

I don't need a package forum.

Personally, I do not really like the theme of the forum site, well I know why you ask why but it's because it's too much Gray colors. I think it should be a theme with mixed colors. Make it more professional.

I'm currently working on a new theme,

It's not going to be too colorful, because too bright isn't professional.

I like the group names and stuff but too less population in the groups, all normal members have no group but having the rank "members". Staff groups, oh goodness nobody but 2 people in staff.

I only hire professionals. I don't just hire just any person to be staff at my forum. They must be an expert to the group which they'll be added to.

Most users are pretty active but i am guessing they come online and then go offline. I like how most members go online but it Members Connected during the last 99 hours. I would like to see a change because I don't think all of them connected from the last 24 hours.

If you check every member's profile, you'll see that they visit. 15 members were online in the past 24 hours,

Thanks for the review.

Your welcome. I thought it was like a Promotion Site sorry for the Pacakgers part.
