Your Forum Review
'Webverts'

Generalities

First Impressions (Score: 9/10): You have a great homepage. It's very tidy and professional and it looks good to me. The only flaw is that the "Latest news" section is not really news, more like latest topics.
Index Appearance (Score: 9/10): Again, nice and tidy. It looks professional but lacks "another dimension" if you will, maybe a couple of widgets or something like that rather than just text will surely raise your marks.
Forum Layout & Color Scheme (Score: 10/10): Your forum has an excellent colour scheme as well as the layout. Everything is neat, tidy and well-organised. Well done!
Categories & Forums (Score: 10/10): A wide range of categories and forums you got there. This is good because it allows the members to have a wider range of discussion and services to request.

Generalities total: 38/40

Forum Style

Banner & Navigation Bar (Score: 5/10): Ooh, let's see what's wrong here.

Banner
Okay, the banner is good but I don't think it matches with your forum's colour scheme. It's just way too different and it's kinda off-putting if you will.

Navigation Bar
It's a shame because there isn't a really exciting navigation bar up there which I expected there would be from a professional looking forum.
Images & Icons (Score: 9/10): You have some nice images and icons and they go well with your forum's colour scheme. The only problem is that they're rather simplistic.

Style total: 14/20

Forum Moderation & Groups

Staff Population (Score: 6/10): You've got a decent amount of administrators, however lacking in moderation. You should hire maybe one or two more moderators.

Administration - 3 member(s)

Moderation - 1 member(s)
Staff/User Groups (Score: 7/10): A fairly small amount of staff groups, but a few user groups. The numbers aren't too bad, but could be better.

Usergroup total: 13/20

Forum Activity

Post/Member Ratio (Score: 9/10): 1735 posts for 53 (excluding my Review account), is pretty good but I expected more for a resonably active forum.
Member Activity (Score: 6/10): A rather low member activity when I got there. It's mainly staff members posting and there weren't many people connected quite recently in the "Who was here" list.

Activity total: 15/20

Overall Mark: 80/100

Conclusion

What could be done to improve your forum: Maybe a small change in the banner, more staff members and getting your members to post and go online more often.

The best thing I like about your forum: The professional look of the forum and the colour scheme of it.

Best of luck to you and your forum.
