How do you like my new design for my forum? The Homes of the Rich Forum lets users talk about celebrity homes, mega-mansions, and anything else related to real estate.
To me this is a limited niche. Who can afford such mansions? Not a high percentage of the population. So people should discuss mansions that they wish they could have? I find the topic to be small. I would suggest that you branch out to all homes... big or small. A homeowners site to share ideas. Add in architecture/architects, engineers, decorators, real-estate agents... make a lot more available.
You can try changing the "hotrforumlogo.png" to a new wider one that fits the whole width of the forum table. That I think, would enhance the design, since you don't have many colors or photos going on.
Like the design, like the idea. I would add another colour to the forum list. How about turning i_folder_big.png into green (like the stripe you got under the logo)? It is better to sell one mega-million mansion a year than 10,000 souvenir thimbles a year LOLz
I think it's a fun idea. The layout of the website is a little boring. Have you checked out The Real Estalker website? It's kind of the same idea that you are doing? I always surf that site for fun, just to dream anyway!!
good theme.. on my opinion... the header doesn suit well.. it ll be better if u change the header.. u hav used rectangular boxes.. for the topics or search.. make the edges rounded.. it ll be nice..
The theme is too dark and the header image is not perfectly suited for the forum and it looks blur too.The number of posts is less and need to promote it.
