Your Forum Review
First Impressions & Appearance
When a potential user visits your forum, you want them to have excellent first impressions. I had pretty good first impressions myself, but I have a few tips that will help bring my first impressions up to excellent, as in excellence that deserves to be in the "Review Showcase" board one day. First, I am a fan of your logo. Secondly, what happened to your forum's favicon? I remember your forum had a nice favicon when I last reviewed your forum, and now your forum doesn't have it. It isn't showing up for me anyways. Thirdly, I really like your forum's professionalism. It's one of the first things I noticed when I first viewed the forum. Fourthly, your forum has a nice header, but maybe it's a little too simple? Instead of just one color, a gradient would be better. Fifthly, I like the custom graphics on your forum. You could do more with them, but they get the job done. Sixthly, I am a big fan of your forum's custom theme. It is a great theme, the colors are overused in themes, but that doesn't matter with your forum's theme, it looks awesome anyways. Overall, I had very nice first impressions, but there's room for improvement. Good luck!

Site Layout
I think your forum's layout could use some work. Your forum has a total twenty boards in five categories. First, I don't think you should have the off-topic "Chats" board in the "Community Room" category. I feel you should consider making an off-topic category at the bottom of the forum. Secondly, I feel the "General Script Discussion" board should be at the top of the "Scripts Discussions" category. Lastly, I feel you should merge the "Resources" category into one board (with sub-boards of course) and then move the board under the "Website Coding & Development" board. You should try to minimize your amount of boards, and getting rid of the "Resources" category would be helpful. Overall, your layout could use work, it's set up strangely. I wish you the best of luck improving your layout.

Statistics and Activity
As of right now, your forum has accumulated 14,655 posts in 1,750 threads by 375 members. Your forum has only been open since early May, which means that your forum is nearing the five month mark of being open. These statistics are very good considering your forum hasn't even been open half a year yet. Your forum has 375 members though, and to have so many members, I'd expect better posting statistics. That's an average of about 39 posts per member. That's not excellent, but it's still pretty good. There seems to be many members inactive now though. You should try your best to get some of these inactive members to come back. A contest, competition, or change might be appealing to inactive members and convince them to become active once more. Also, the activity seems to have slowed down a bit lately. Maybe this is because of kavin leaving, I don't really know, but things just seem to be a bit quiet on your forum. There are boards that have went a few days without posts in them. You should work to keep all the boards active on a daily basis. Overall, the statistics are great, but the average posts per member could be better and the forum seems to have slowed down activity-wise. Good luck making improvements.

Staff Moderation
Your forum's staff team seems to be moderating well. According to the "Forum Team" page, your forum only has two staff members; both are administrators. There are also VIP members, valued members, and a designer on the "Forum Team" page, but I'll assume they're not staff members. Your forum is doing pretty well, I am surprised you only have two staff members. I think it would be good to have a regular moderator added to the team, bringing the team to a total of three. Another member on the staff team would be good to help out with moderation. Do you really need to have two administrators though? I think one of the administrators would be fine just being a global moderator. There is really no need for there to multiple administrators. Overall, staff moderation seems to be doing well, but you should consider adding a moderator to the staff team and maybe one of the administrators should just be a global moderator.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism
The two administrators seem to be posting around professionally. In fact, Script Installs in general looks like an extremely professional forum. I don't see any issues with professionalism. I think the logo could look a bit more professional, but that's about it. Now, to the spelling and grammar errors. First, in the "Blog" board description, "and other" needs to be added before "related" and "goes" needs to be "go." Secondly, in the "Forum" board description, "forums" needs to be "forum software." Thirdly, in the "Other Scripts" board description, "does" needs to be "do" as well. Fourthly, in the "General Script Discussion" board description, "are" needs to be added between "scripts" and "good and bad." Fifthly, in the "Tweaks & Tools" board description, "to" needs to be removed. Sixthly, in the "Website Coding & Development" board description, "an" needs to be "and." Lastly, in the "Themes & Templates" board description, "Script Install" needs to be "Script Installs." Overall, your forum is very professional but the spelling and grammar needs improvement. Good luck!
