Name of Forum:Heart of Gielinor.
Forum Link: Will be messaged to who claims the review, Irviding said this is fine.
Type of Review ( Quick Review / Forum Review ):Quick
Date Forum Opened:Not Applicable
Demo Account for reviewer (Supplied by requester):
Additional Notes:So, my site hasn't been released yet but I want a review concerning primarily the styling, appearance, layout, and features of not only the forum but the site as a whole. I already talked to Irviding about it so this is fine. Remember, I don;t want much emphasis on the activity side as the site is only released being shown to the reviewer and the staff I am recruiting. I'd like you to look over all of the pages on the site and tell me what you think. Thanks!
 


Your Quick Review



Pros:
- I like how simple it is to navigate your site. The nav buttons are consistend, and easy to understand and use. The pages have a clear layout which it makes it even better.

- I like how your forum is integrated into the rest of your site clearly. It's makes your forum look more unique. It also makes your forum fit right in, versus being separated from the rest of the site.

- The fact that your rules are clearly written out and explained are good. That ensures people have no excuse for breaking the rules. It also minimizes the risk of people accidentally breaking the rules.

- I like the skin on your forum. It matches the rest of your site. Also, custom icons were used which also gives it a unique look.

Cons:
- Some of your images are sort of out of whack. For example,
admin.png
. That font is sort of ugly, no offense. Also, it's dark and really is not appealing to the eye.

- Your banner is sort of lackluster. It has nothing to do with Runescape, it's just some boring text. Liven your header up with some images, brighten it up, etc. Make users feel like they're on an exciting site.

- I appreciate you handcrafting your site, and that's great, but your layout looks...old. It looks like something from 2000, not 2009. Sometimes the font blends in with the black and becomes hard to read, the color scheme is unattractive, etc.

- On at least one page, there was this weird gray and black gradient background. It was under the content and really did not look good with the rest of the style.




Final/General Thoughts: Your forum is nice and original, but the style could use a tune-up.

What was most liked about the website/forums: Unique, simple, navigation.

What was disliked most about the website/forums: Layout, skin.

Final Score : Score - 7 (Out of 10)
