First impressions
Well the first impressions I get when I visit your site aren’t very good. The banner’s height is too much and you should reduce the height of the banner and increase the width. Also I really don’t like the custom icons, they are too big and the size of them needs to reduced. Furthermore the skin really isn’t appealing, I wouldn’t call it a terrible skin, just not something at all enticing. Also the name of the forum is horrible, sorry. Fsdz is not a very good or easily remember able name, maybe you should have called your site freespiriteddiscussions or something along the lines of that, it might be a long name but at least it isn‘t too difficult to remember.. Sounds like a bunch of random letters to be honest. Also the site doesn’t have a domain which doesn’t make me think your site is that professional, .info domains are only $1 if you want a domain. However on the positive side your site does have a favicon, but surely it should be blue?
3/20
Site layout
I don’t think your site is in particularly well organised but you have sort of rectified it with the names of the forums. However surely you should have an announcements forum, and it should be at the top of the forum? The layout isn’t great, not exactly very clear, but it’s not a huge issue and if I was a regular at your site I could live with it.

Staff Moderation
Well seeing as your forum is brand new and it isn’t an advertising forum, I can’t really comment on your staff moderation. You are the only member of staff and you are the only person who needs to be staff.
N/A
Forum Statistics
It’s too early to comment on your statistics much like with moderation. I don’t think it’s fair to pass any judgement here.
N/A
Spelling and grammar
Had a look at a few posts and you have made a couple of spelling and grammar mistakes but generally I don’t see any huge issues. The spelling on the main page is fine though and I see no issues here.
15/20
Final marks
A very new site, it doesn’t look great but really it’s too early to pass judgement on things like whether the forum will survive or not.
What was most liked about the website/forums:
I thought the spelling and grammar of the site was good.
What was disliked most about the website/forums:
I didn’t like the skin, the banner or the icons.
How could I get you (The Reviewer) to join my website?
I don’t think that sort of forum would interest me so I wouldn’t join.

On another note, what makes a skin appealing, all the ones I looked through either seemed to bulky or if I liked them the board was slow and stuttery. The skin I picked I liked because it gave the board a neater feel :S
