As I said in the introduction tread my forum is made for pupils in a local secundary school (2000pupils). They have the ability to chat about all things and to discuss some rules used by the school (off course parents and teachers are also welcome on the site). In January the promotion for the website started and we get daily some 50 unique members. +900 members regged though. But due the (unexpected) success we probably will grow in the future with other schools etc. But what do you guys think of the website (it is in Dutch). I also want to get some revenue from google AdSense but for some reason my forum always gets rejected if anyone could give some advice for that it would be welcome :-)) And especially tell me what would you guys change?

Thx in advance

Bart

Edit: www.swalus-productions.be (we are planning to change the domain to a more relevant name)

Do you have the url?, can't review what I can't see...LOL

Initial Impression: Well, firstly I'd like to say that I couldn't really give an outstanding review on this because it's not in English. It was rather hard to review. Anyway, I thought it looked a bit cluttered and under construction. I didn't really like the skin as it was too white/bright. Also, the things such as the "events" at the bottom with all the repetative links was rather distracting from the overall feel of the forum.

Organization and Feel: This isn't really applicable as I couldn't really look into it... however, it looked a little unorganized (with things such as the events links). Also, i would recommend getting rid of the moderator column on the forum home. I find that it is rather distracting.

Skin and Modifications: As I said, I didn't really like the skin. It was okay, but it, in my humble opinion, was rather too bright. It was distracting. To simple. To bright. To dull. Also, the graphics were only mediocre. I'd recommend you make some custom ones yourself.

Guidelines and Staff: I couldn't look into this because I can't read German (which is the language I believe this board is in).

Recommended Changes:

1) Consider changing the skin.

2) Graphics - get more customization.

3) Remove the moderator column from the forum home.
