    Hello,

    Today i ask you to review my forum. My project for my site is to enable other IPB webmasters to have a source to download arcade games for their website. To do this i have download system in my arcade. Members get 10 downloads a day. I also have a shout box installed for other member’s enjoyment.
    How will i benefit? I offer the option of paying for unlimited downloads. I hopefully get a community too. I’m currently finding out it Vbulliten forums can use .tar format games. If they can then that’s great for me.
    When i have enough money i will also be buying the skin: http://www.skinbydragonfly.com/forums/index.php?automodule=gallery&cmd=sc&cat=10

    My website is www.chillground.com (the one your reviewing)

    If i could have some feedback of what i could improve that would be great.
    One question i would like answering is should i get some more staff? Im active on the net so i believe i can do it along with my other admin and global moderator. When it starts to get more active then ill add more staff. Is that a good idea?

    I thank you greatly for your time.
    Matt.

    I like how your site looks great with all screen resolutions because it resizes to suit various widths. :)

    What I would do is use a thicker bolder font for your site's name (it looks too thin at the moment)

    Hi - Pretty good start. Nice use of colour - good job :)

    I think the Red Cross could perhaps be a touch smaller though ...

    One thing I would suggest is to drop the shoutbox. It discourages posting and is a huge server resource drain.

    Yes i thought the same. However the members wanted a shout box :( So i removed it from every page and just put it on board index.
