    Things to do:
    -Make a custom header
    -Work on ad placment, don't use too many or it just kills the look of the site.
    -With pre-done magizine layouts don't give your categories a slug manualy let wordpress do it automatically or you will get that page 2 error all the time. (don't know why just needs to work itself out)
    -Upgrade your wordpress to the newer version (hackers can ruin all your hardwork)
    -Custom Channels/Fields need set for your images for each posts. With the web2feel skins I'm not sure if they are all the same.

    For Feature'd images use Custom field - "feature" For thumbnails on the posts use - "screen"

    The site is basically a demo skin without much to it. Remake this thread in about 2 months once you get the site going so people can help you with placment and not just see many errors.

    Make sure you have all your files pointing where you want them.

    On your about page - http://guideforex.co.uk/?page_id=2

    Add your "hello" post to it.

    There are quite a bit of errors on the page, I think you should get a more
    professional template and a logo.

    Most things have been mentioned, I hope you havn't launched publically as it's not best practice to go live with so many errors and an incomplete site

    I would move the tabs "announcements", etc. to right below the slide show feature. I would also add a bunch more sidebar modules like "recent post", "recent comments". A logo would also be a good addition.

    Good luck with it.

    It has a virus true!!!!
    its HTML/Crypted virus?
    get rid of it.

    but really changed the design.
    i dont like white and green combination tho.
    make the white gray or something dark.

    it will be good .
    to rate me this site. for me its 4/10
    sorry mate. got to rid of those html virus.

    image errors, fix those,
    make the outsides bars dark, and make all the content in them light.
