Hey lexyboy,

Thanks for posting this.

By and large, it is 610nm as default which is quite nice. You might want to see what touches you can put into it to make it uniquely yours. I would say to create a more unique logo, as well, but you probably already have that in mind.

This appears to be a general discussion community. I would say to see where you can pare down the forums a bit so that you don't have so many and don't spread yourself too thin at the start. You can always add more.

I see you have some guidelines in place at the start, credit to you for that!

Good luck with the community.

Thanks,

Patrick

Hey lexyboy.

The font for the forum header is in rough contrast with the orange background. Changing that would make a significant difference as that piece of text is one of the first things people are going to see.

The forum gives me a "bland" impression. I'd start adding things to liven it up. Maybe a side navigation to fill up some space?

Truestar,
Thanks for your observation and suggestion. I'd need your reply to a few things.

1. What font and colour do you suggest.
2. Give me an example a side navigation bar.
NB. Being a newbie, some things would have to be made simpler for me .
Once again Thanks.
