Please review my reciprocal link exchange forum

    I just launched off a new forum at http://www.reciprocalforum.com where webmaster can exchange links. I don't plan on adding any advertisements because I'm more concerned about building a community than earning a couple of measly dollars from adsense. Please let me know what you think of it and what improvements could be made.

    Here is my review of your site.

    Theme: good theme, but you could try to add a bit more power ( play with color schemes)

    Content: you have very few threads and posts, you shouls add more quality content or/and hire forum posters

    I just launched the site off about an hour ago so I don't think it's possible for me to have any stats. As far as the categories go, I don't think it would be wise for me to add anything more on a mostly empty forum. I'll probably think of adding more subcategories if people actually start using the site. However, I don't think a lot of people will join until there are at least 100 members to exchange links with.

    I like the site but your logo represents something having to with recycling or the environment. I like the idea of using arrows though.

    I think two arched arrows pointing at each other would be more appropriate since it's really just a two step process. But then again maybe it could be a 3 step process if you include the step of contacting each other.

    Your theme looks cool specially the off white colour with the light brown interacted ... Your logo looks superb to me and i think so its best to describe your forum's actual meaning ...
    Your forum is not populated as its new so you need to promote it as much as you can and i think so its fine even if you want to monetize it afterwards :)
    Thanks

    Thanks. BTW I really like your webmaster forum. Did you design that yourself? The movement in the logo really makes it stand out.

    Thanks guys! Maybe a few of you guys can help me out a little by joining and leaving a link exchange request. I know the forum barely has any activity right now but I have it set to where you get an automatic email once somebody responds. So maybe you'll come back in the future.
