I know I need a nice logo but does anybody know where you can make one. Is there a website where you can me logos.
The site looks pretty decent as far as design. You should look into hiring a few people to fill out the forums with some content... It would be worth the money, imo. Also, I would consider losing some of the categories. When there are so many, people don't seem as willing to go sorting through them. Try to keep it simple as possible. Besides, god only knows how much maintenance on resorting posts you'll have to do if the member counts starts to take off.
In my opinion forums are attractive when they are scretched to the page size. The forum in the middle seemed a little strange to me. I advise you to remove the wordpress and keep the forum only with a nice logo or make the forum open in another page.
good lay out and color but usually the best way to start a successful forum is to create it for a pre-existing and popular website.
Thanks Turkey Eater. Anybody else. I also added a place to shop for members. Let me know what you guys think
