UDMB Review Please

[Watch Me Sink]

As my last review was completed a month ago today (minus a few hours), I would like a review please. Everything except the FAQ and stats page is available for guests, but I will put the premade account anyway

Hi mate! Not heard much Disturbed, but I'll take a look anyway!

• Nice Favicon. Fits the skin and so on brilliantly! Also, that's a great banner, it fits in especially well with the navbar underneath. Great on/off icons, I'm guessing that's the band's logo? Anyway, it fits the general look brilliantly!
• You have good forums for all needs, and you don't have too many. As a general rule, I say that 20 is the max for a front page, and you have 9, which stops it from looking squashed and messy, whilst giving enough room for people to chat! Also, the board looks really on-topic, the most posts on a board is on the 'Disturbed music' board, so you've done really well there.
• You have a fair number of members (68), and the post count is massive, showing lots of committed members.

  Gets a bit repetative, doesnt it?! I think you should cut it down to the last 5 posts if you can.
• What exactly are 'Voices'? Would they be affiliates? It might just be my experiences, but I don't think most people will understand that.
• All the last 10 posts have been done by you, and at least 2 of the members in the last 48 hours come from here... you need more regular members to help you out!!

• No offence, but I don't particuarly like that background; it doesn't seem to go with the grey background! Yeah, it's a bit plain, it'll do for now, but it could be improved by going for more emphasis on the blue.

OVERALL COMMENT

Well done! It's quite a good job, just try re-skinning, and sorting the points in orange, and you'll do just fine! 7.5/10

Best of luck matey! -D-

Nice review Joe!

 

[Watch Me Sink]

Thanks for the review. The On and Off is the band's logo (well at least one of their many logos). The background (the dark green) will be changed sometime soon to a more metal look. The thing with the members, I agree with. I have been working quite hard to spread the word about it (I'm high in search engines too) on site such as Yahoo Answers, but I'm not getting any members from it yet 🙁

 

[JoeLatics]

Yeah, I know how hard it is to memberise 😉
Keep working on it, and you'll do great 🙂

Maybe try contacting the band, and see if they could put a link up on the official site?
