    mate site looks great to me
    look is very pleasent
    but i hope you would be knowing how difficult it is to maintain a forum
    though with 590 articles you have done fairly good job to give it a start
    keep up the good and hard work

    The template would look nicer with a blue background color and a new logo design (that's not black.. perhaps navy or some other color)

    See, this isnt really a forum. It runs off of RSS feeds from several other forums...

    I'd suggest that you redirect http://dntforum.com/ to http://www.dntforum.com/ Dont keep different versions as it often becomes a problem when you get links for the site and also will result in the PR being distributed.

    It looks okay, kinda plain (my opinion). But overall good forum.

    Thanks for the reviews everyone. There is no need to register on the forum since it directs to other forums. I disabled and removed all registration options since there really is no need to post anything.


    I will also redirect to www ....good idea on the PR distibution technique.

    It has a nice simple and clean look. I like the colors and logo as well. I don't really like the large text below the logo. A different font and size would look better imo. Good luck with the forum.

    The template is a bit to plain. And correct me if I'm wrong, but you are running phpBB2? Why not 3???

    Get a more distinctive template, and maybe add some more forums. Users tend to get more active in communities that have off topic forums such as general discussion, spam/forum games, intelligent discussion, introductions, etc. Gives forum sites a bit of community value, instead of strictly business. Which is obviously essential :)

    I went with phpbb2 because I knew how to SEO the urls. I don't need the features of 3 anyway. Also, as stated earlier, there really isn't a need for a community forum since it isnt setup for a community. It simply gathers the latest posts from webmaster forums and displays them all in one place. Does that make sense? Maybe I am not explaining it correctly. Please let meknow if you are confused about anything, maybe I need to make some adjustments! Thanks for the reviews!!!
