Photo a Week is relaunching soon

I think it's a great nitch, and will pass it on to my husband's neice who's trying to become a profession from amature.

You could also have a section on editing photo's using adobe, jasc, etc for somemore catagories.

Could do a contest.

Initial Impression
Your CMPS page is a little plain but nice. I like how you really get in to what you offer your members. Very good impression

Organization and Feel
I was really expecting to see more forums, but for just starting out you just the right amount and you have a good amount of activity
Everything is very easy and nicely laid out!

Skin and Modifications
The skin is not bad, although the blue colored text really hurts my eyes I would suggest blended more, maybe a deeper blue. I really like the Header, looks very professional. I would like to see custom forum icons, the ones you have are too simple for a site like this and just don't go.
I couldn't get into the article section, this is something that you really want to open to the public because if a guest is looking for a certain something and they come across your site, they will never know if you have it or not, unless they register. You could lose a lot of potential members this way. Remember content will bring people back I was able to get into your photo album area and that is nicely setup! I think if you had some random pics on your forums home page that would look really nice, in fact maybe even put some on the CMPS page as well. This will give that added touch to make your site stand out.

Guidelines and Staff
I see you are the only staff member. I would definitely keep it this way until you have at least 50 active members. I have to say I am really impressed with your FAQ's and your Etiquettes & Privacy policies Excellent job! They are all very detailed and to the point!

Recommended Changes

• Change the bright blue text to blend and make it more easy on the eyes
• Add forum icons that match your site
• Open the article section to guests
• Add random photo's to forums home and cmps

I really enjoyed looking over your site and think you will be successful with it! Good Luck to you
