    Hi, I just built this general chat forum, I need comments and criticisms design wise and forum wise.. And if possible can you join, hehe.

    Here's the link >> Chatzors

    Also, I need your opinion whether to place inline ads or ads on the header?

    Thanks in advance.

    I like the forum template you've used. What I would do is redesign the header.. The font is hard to read and the icon image is kind of in low resolution.

    Yeah, that's what I'm doing as of now, the header. It was just done for a minute or two. Thanks for the comment man, hope I'll see you there. ;)

    Looks simple but very nice! :)
    What I'ld do, is change the font color of the forum descriptions, which now is red .. I'ld rather change it to some kind of gray or so, as the red color contradicts your design a bit, in my opinion ;)

    Further this is a very nice phpBB design!

    Hope this helps a bit :)

    I'm not ultra keen on the general colour scheme at all... but that's just me. Probably it will appeal to some. Otherwise, cool forum.

    Sure, you are very welcome. Please do so, I turned off verification for now. :)

    Thanks for the comments, I was thinking of making it 'red' because the forum seems pale with the gray scheme. But I will change it if lots of people contradicts. :D Thanks and thanks.

    Anymore reviews? :D

    I like the look of this site I have to say, but the banner in the top right is what caught my attention particularly. I might personally go for a little more colour differentiation between links and hover.

    You did a perfect job. All what you need , now, is to start backlinking to your forums. You should also submit it to forum directories and why not - populate some threads yourself

    Good luck
