    Tell me what you think about my photography forums. It's a free theme but I tweaked the hell out of it. I installed installed vbSEO so no need to review the seo. :)

    I'm also running a free pro flickr account contest, so tell m what you think of the actual contest (marketing wise).

    Looks good. Now, how about lining the 'Want a free Pro Flickr account?' section with the Login box? As your layout consists mainly of square shapes, it would look much better to line up the top.

    The contest is a good idea yet you have to change the layout if you want somebody to read till the end of that post. Sort all the ways of earning points in an <ul> list. Make those 10points in bold as well.

    AND explain what benefits would they get from the Pro account. Never assume that your visitor knows everything.

    Good luck!

    nice clean design. My only criticism is with the logo. I would remove the dot net.

    Great concept, well executed.

    One word of warning though: Initially, I thought the "free flickr" thing was an ad and almost ignored it. You have to make it more prominent.

    Good luck with your endeavor.
