Review for All Sport Forums:

Colors: 6/25 - Barely any customization with the colors. You left it as the default OpenBB colors and it doesn't look very good. It doesn't match the theme at all. I'll give you a few points since it doesn't actually look bad, but this category is very disappointing.

Images: 2/10 - It pretty much looks like the default image. The images have little relation to the theme of sports itself. Also, since there aren't any posts, I can't check out the images within each post. However, there's little customization here, and you need to work to match the theme of your board. I'm giving you one extra point for your logo, but it doesn't look too good. The white background does not meld with the blue.

Other Customization: 4/10 - I see that you did do a few things, like create short and simple category descriptions. Great! However, I can't check out any posts to see the ranking system. It doesn't seem like you've added any hacks either. More effort is needed here.

Service/Moderation: 0/5 - The most important thing for any administrator is to make a few rules first, and post it on the board. Even before anyone reviews it. Then, you need to add some posts to each category just to make it look nicer. That's all I was looking for in "Service", but it wasn't done appropriately.

Bonus: +0

Overall: 12 x 2 + 0 = 24% - You really need to improve the customization of the board.

I DO NOT MEAN TO OFFEND ANYONE BY THIS POST
This seems to be the first forum you've run, play around with it a bit...

Colors: 5/25
Well, what can i say, De-Fault

Images: 0/25
Nothing except the logo has been customized, and the white background looks bad...i mean real bad.

Other Customization: 3/25
Yes, I agree with conker, your short category descriptions are great, however, its pretty much a default board other than that.

Originality: 0/25
From what i see, it's pretty much the OpenBB board with a different logo...It requires more customization.

Overall Mark: 8% (And I'm not being harsh)

Ok a from one webmaster to another, I'll be frank, I didn't really like it.
A couple of tips:
Customize!! - The Default Board is boring
Have a "Trademark" so to speak. eg. My site (http://auspc.net) has an original nav panel with slanted dividers. THIS SETS YOUR SITE APART FROM THE REST!!
OpenBB is hard to customise, I know from experience. IMO Burning Board of PHPBB2 are good. but vBulletin is Da Bomb :)
Make your site colorful but dont go over the top ;)
Once you get a good design going, ask for another review where we can give you tips on improving it further.


Good Day
