user posted image Strengths
  • Very attractive skin that is neutral enough to please anyone, regardless of whether they prefer light or dark skins.
  • Descriptive but concise guest welcome message.
  • You've done a terrific job of setting everything up and starting a few topics in each forum.

user posted image Weaknesses
  • Guests cannot view any topics. There is also some issue with the script you're using to do that. Occasionally the topic would load halfway for me, and then I would get a page error in Firefox.
  • "Features and Codes" section is unnecessary and out-of-place on a music discussion board, or any board that is not a resource board for that matter.
  • The forum names under the "Enkreevia Music HQ" category, though clever, are slightly confusing. At first, I was under the impression that users could host their own radio station from the forum.
  • The "Affiliates" page is messed up in both FF and IE.

user posted image Recommendations
  • The effect created by the hover image on the submenu drop-downs is cool, but I suggest you make its background transparent.
  • Diversify the descriptions for all the forums in the "In The Band" category. It's obvious that they were all just copied and pasted to one another, and therefore they all contain the same spelling error ("given" should be "give").
  • Specify the difference between the "Writer's Moment" and "Writing" forums in the latter's description (i.e. one is for lyrics, one is for everything else).

Thanks Morgan. For now I have removed the script as it isn't needed.

And also, the board is set up so guests can see the forums, but not topics.
