    They are nice. But you must make the right color combination in the design.

    I like the colors personally, but it's just the "backbone", right? You should modify the logo, if I can suggest anything right now, notify us, when you expand the forum features, we'll review it

    Hi,

    SMF is one my favorite forum software. You should try others themes. It's easy to install. I saw the categories :) Will take time to develop the forum ;) Best of luck!

    It seems like you are using a free default template. The topic is probably too broad and the domain name is unrelated. I don't see this project ever taking-off.

    .info domain name isn't suitable for forums. If possible get another domain.

    I think you need to utilize categories / sub categories a bit better.

    Also try posting what you forum is about at the top. I think it is "All things American made" but that is just a guess from the different categories i saw.

    I also suggest to start with the proper name and then get to the design and content
