Review of a Social Forum!

    My website died a month ago, and I've had to start from the ground up.
    So I'm wondering what everyone thinks of MotiveighT Social Forums.

    Keep in mind that I will be adding new features, in the coming days. :)

    I have 2 suggestions for you:

    1. The header seems to be too big and there is a lot of black space - try to fill in this area.
    2. Try to make the URLs SEO friendly. I run a local phpBB forum and use this - http://www.phpbb-seo.com/boards/phpbb-seo-toolkit/phpbb-seo-mod-rewrites-vt66.html . My forum is powered by phpBB2 so I don't know if this will work with your phpBB3 script but I believe there will be more solutions how to do that.

    Good luck :)

    The layout and design is not bad, but there is quite a bit of negative space in the
    header maybe it would look better if you added some graphics into that space.

    why not move the top part of the graphic (the hoops part) down to the left of the site name and make it smaller so you can then lose the huge header.

    I'll rework the header. :)
    Also, I've added a chatroom to the site, and will be adding more (ie. arcade, etc)

    The logo looks nice in ff3.In IE6 there's a big green box around it. Also lot of blank space in the header.
