    hi my new site www.howzmyflying.com has a forum attached for "petrol heads" where like minded people can share comments on F1, cars, new cars etc.

    the forum is up and runnning, but the actual site has only an index at the moment, as i am working on the content still.

    i would like ideas on the content of the site,

    also looking for dedicated people for mods and admins

    have alook at the forum and let me know

    thank you all

    well the front page could use a little work, make the picture clickable atleast, and add some links.... maybe export topics from the forums to the front page.

    The forum color needs to be changed IMO, too dark....atleast on my eyes

    thanx guys, although i dont understand the 1st reply, lol

    the 1st page is temporary as i said i am still working on the website aspect.

    and still experimenting with the colours

    also thinking of adding a portal to the forum, should i use this portal as the 1st page of the site or shall keep the forum and its portal seperate?

    thank you

    the homepage takes too long to load but i guess there's not much u can do about that considering how huge ur image is.

    i love the colours of the forum but when regular text is the same colour as the links it gets a bit confusing and uncomfortable. good work on the forum anyway. ;)

    Definitely need to change that big picture on your homepage, or at least make the image click through as well.

    You change the img cause its too big and slow loading, waht you also need is some content on your forum.
