    Looks good. The only thing is, I would put something(border) on top of the pic at the top.

    The template looks good however, the image in the header is slightly wider than the rest of the
    template everything should be the same width, and you should also have the name of your site
    or a logo in the header.

    Nice work but I think it would be better if your site title was much more prominent.

    Minor suggestion, try setting viewing attachments so it does not require membership. More people are likely to stick around and possibly join if they can see more of what is going on.

    I feel the same way. Nice design but should have images showing without requiring registration. it will spark more interest if visitors can see before they commit themselves.

    looks good. I love the colour scheme. Someone mentioned that the header is slightly bigger. I don't think it matters too much. Good luck with it.

    Its really nice. Specially the colour combination of the site. The most best thing is that the pics are very natural and the clarity is also the best

    I think it's a good website, but there are already several other photography forums which are already very popular, and also people are more willing to join those forums. Try to compare your wife's forums to the other popular photography forums, and try to make your forum different and unique.

    As for the template, I feel that the template doesn't make me feel comfortable. Try to get a mostly white template.

    Just my thoughts, and your website has great potential.

    Remember, NEVER give up and ALWAYS try your best...

    This gives people a reason to register. The goal of a forum is to get members. Having to be a member to view attachments gives people that do not post a reason to register.

    And thank all of you for the kind words.

    A couple of days ago a new header image was installed. So maybe take another look and let me know what your opinions are of the new header.
