Would really appreciate some reviews

Just a quick review without looking at seo etc.

The forum looks nice, colours go well together, top banner design looks good to me, but also looks like romance anime (I like action stuff so may put me off using your forum) If your aiming for romance and drama mainly make that clear and write it in the title.

I know you said it's still work in progress, but are you going to implement a front page linked to your forum with latest news and features etc. on

Your header isn't 100% width, so on larger screens the header doesnt fill the screen.

I feel like the colors don't look good in your theme, try new themes It's worth the time . users don't like to work with a not good looking site . also the problem with header mentioned by Tonyk is a big issue

Hmmm not too sure how to fix that banner size problem...also, what exactly is it that doesn't work about the colors?

I know it hard to give a forum look unique, but as for me, I would vote for 1/5. Not to be offensive, here is some of my opionion:

- Members who are interest in anime are kind of cartoonism, so if you could, I would recommend giving a real shot of anime style. I mean complex images system.
- It's too simple. I think you can try having a anime style front page and give a interesting button to your anime forum.

Excuse me for my idea. It's just for me, and I'm not mean to be offensive in any other ways! Thanks!

Well thanks for the input
I literally just made the site yesterday and I've been updating it all the time, it's no where near done. As you can see I'm currently adding unique forum icons, so that will add some more pictures to the home page. I'll also add more pages too, such as a gallery, blog, shop, etc.
I'm not sure about the color scheme though....

Really very poor color combination. You may change your theme it should be good.

is it the pink that is bad? if so, any suggestions?

The banner is broke. To fix it do the following.

I've cut it up for you so you now have 3 parts to the banner. Go into the CSS, set it up as follows:

#banner {
background:url ('images/bannerFiller.png') repeat-x fixed top center;
width:100%;
height:116px;
}

#bannerLeft {
background:url ('images/bannerLeft.png') no-repeat;
float:left;
width:398px;
height:116px;
}

#bannerRight {
background:url ('images/bannerRight.png') no-repeat;
float:right;
width:400px;
height:116px;
}

.clear { clear:both; }

I can't see what the header div is called in your code, so you might have to give it a name, in which case call it banner as above. What you are doing is making the slice repeat horizontally across the whole div, and floating the images separately left and right. This will make the banner the same across all size screens. I have had to write this out off the top of head. It's obviously a lot easier when you code it yourself. It looks right to me, give it a go and let me know.

Oh wow, I wasn't sure how to fix that, that is a HUGE help thank you very much I'll try my best to make it work

I'm also a complete beginner at coding so sorry but am I replacing any codes that are already in my header template besides my current banner img codes? Or can I just put those codes at the the top of my header template?

BTW the first post I made, that CSS code needs to go into your stylesheet not the page code.

I put the code in the css additional template, the code isn't showing on the the forum like before so I think that's good, but the images aren't showing..

is it just me or there is no header on the forum? A nice looking anime header would look nice on it...

Yea the header is currently being worked on, but any suggestions for colors, I like the blue, but what should the text be?

Thanks to MrMonetize, I now have a banner that will adjust for different screen widths, this bloke personally went and created the codes and put them in the right templates for me thanks man
