    It looks allot better than when I first looked at your site, but right after home it says google ads in black underlined. I see ads below the line, but I don't see ads for that. It looks out of place. but other than that, I would say your time was well spent. Looks Good!

    I didn't see your original site but this looks fine for a fan site. Doesn't need to be too professional anyhow.

    I think it will be better if you add a theme to the main site

    Not bad, I would change the default phpbb skin though, it usually looks good, but in your case you might need to change it to the theme of your site,

    good luck.

    It looks like you finally got out from under that free hosting stuff.

    But why does your meta tag say <meta name="copyright" content="2007 phpBBservice.nl" /> Is this your site, or does it belong to phpBBservice.nl? Did not know someone had a copyright on your site?

    The home page is too "white", its bland. Its as if the white space is overbearing. Maybe consider a theme that has a little more color to it, maybe an off white for the background. And maybe some borders around the columns


    I think your off to a good start. Just like any other website owner you will learn from your mistakes. I expect your next changes will only improve your site and forums.
    :)

    The forums is still on the free hosting forum, but like I said my friend owns the site I am using the forums with, so he changed it for me, and made like I own the forums
    And about the website design I am getting an entirely new WP made custom for the florida gators, along with a phpbb3 forum template so ites going to look pretty good i think
