    I need some tips on what I should add to my site to make it more useful for gamers.

    The content on it right now is mostly directed towards text based games/gamers, and I want to change that as much as possible.

    Also, please check out the forums and let me know what you think of the board structure, I just re did it and Im quite proud of it so far, but any constructive criticism is helpful.

    Thanks for your input, and I will try to base any further development of the site on the reviews I get from DP members.

    Site- www.flashfirenet.com
    Forum- www.flashfirenet.com/forum

    Also, I am wondering...

    There are SMF addons for things like downloads and whatnot. Should I make the forums the main part of site, and just scratch out whats on www.flashfirenet.com? (and put the content of it on the forum part) So that when the people go to the site, since its a gaming community, they see the forums first thing.

    Then Id add a link to an actual website part of the community to the forums. I guess, sort of swap the places around.

    www.flashfirenet.com would be forums
    www.flashfirenet.com/site would be the main site.

    Sorry if im confusing anyone lol.. Let me know if thats a good idea, but also please still give me whatever input you have :) Thanks again.

    Site:
    The design looks really outdated.. especially the header design (you need a new one re-designed)

    Forum:
    The forum is okay but you need a new customized logo on there because the text is hard to read (because of the layer style and colors)

    Thanks for the input :)

    I will make a new header image for the forums, and try to find a decent template for my main site. :)
    The one I currently have I made myself with css and a simple admin panel i created, hopefully shouldnt be too hard to move it over to a new template :)

    Yeah the design needs a lot of work. Also check how it look at resolutions over 1024 width.
