    Site seems a little slow, text blends into the background color too much - it needs more contrast.

    Have you thought about getting a server and hosting the site yourself, instead of using sitefrost?

    No header image - which is no big deal. But some people like to see a nice fancy header.

    Meta description is ok,

    But something like "C&C forum" would probably be just as good.

    I am planning on getting real hosting once the community is bigger. Hmm for me a header image would be fine but I don't know how to do it. The site is slow sometime, but is alot faster then a few days ago when our host moved to a new server.

    Thanks for your feedback, my partner just went on a trip for 2 weeks so I am on my own for now.

    ok, ya it does seem like the site is bulky and loading real slow but if that's hosting just up your hosting bandwith and should be fine.

    the header to me atleast just doesn't look like it fits in this theme.

    i really like the colors of the forum and everything except for the header looks great to me!

    1, Hard to See

    I don't like it that much.

    You need to get rid of the red.

    Change theme or view the site with light in the room of your PC. Other way is to change options of resolution and brightness on your screen

    You don't like what much ? and the theme is red because its fan based theme. If we would remove all red it would not be anymore a C&C fan based theme would it not ?

    Anyway thanks for your feedback aldo I won't be able to undertake much.
    Yeah thanks mate, its a NOD theme. See VHostingZone this why it is then red the theme so much: http://www.google.be/images?hl=nl&q=NOD&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&biw=1660&bih=863

    I think the site is ok. There is too much red in the back ground.

    Thanks well the theme is designed to be liked for C&C fans who will understand why the theme is so much red. Lucky you can easy change the main theme to a other one.
