Number of Members: (10/10)
What can i say, I think your member count just goes to prove how good your forum is. 21,245 members is a big number of members by any forum's standard. I dont think anything can be done to improve this so 10/10 it is 🙂
Number Of Active Members: (8/10)
You have a good number of active members, but, for the amount of members you do have, theres not a lot of active ones. It might be worth doing a mass email or PM to try and get some of those members back, This method does work, but its something that shouldnt be done on a regular basis. A good thing to do is a competition, If you email people about a competition with a good prize, they are bound to want to look into it further.
Number Of Posts (Spam or Otherwise): (9/10)
365,680 is a lot of posts, and its good to see that most of them are on topic. The posts in the off-topic forum are of a good standard, as are most of the posts on the forum. I think you also have a nice size moderating team for the activity on your forum.
Appearance (First Impressions):(15/20)
The Welcome page is brilliant, It looks very professional, Its when you click it you find that the banner and skin for the forum isnt the same. The banner doesn't make me go "wow" as a Graphics forum's banner should do. I found the skin quite bland also, Its nothing bad but its just ordinary.
Layout: (16/20)
The layout is good, but i think one or two forums should be merged or removed, as you look, theres some forums with over 100,000 posts, and theres 1 or 2 with less than 100, They arent used greatly either. I would suggest making them sub-forums.
Moderation: (10/10)
I think you have enough moderators for the genre of your forum, for a forum of your size with a different genre, you may need more moderators, but i think you have a nice size team who are friendly and active, i think you have got this one spot on, Full marks.
Activity:(8/10)
I dont know what time your forum is most active at, but it wasnt very active as i wrote this. You get a nice number of guests on your forum, and your who was online today shows that you have a good amount of members on daily, I think that it should be bigger for the size of your forum, but its still a nice amount.
Spelling and Grammar(9/10)
I think your spelling and grammer is perfect, at least thats what ive seen in the few posts that i looked at. Nothing to work on here, keep up the great work. A lot of your members have nice spelling and grammer too.
Overall Mark: (85/100)
Its a great forum, I reccomend it to all people interested in graphics 🙂
