Good job I'm not epileptic - scrolling through all those different boards made me feel like I was having a weird acid flashback (and I've never had acid *lol*). Might be worth altering the colours to something easier to read, and reducing how many different boards you have - it's a long trawl

As Lisa said about too mant boards, Shrink them down into more catagories so theres less.. Get me? Eg; +Praying Mantids Then within there have all the little sub-catagries Just an idea like ,,hehe -Samm

Hiya great forum but there is way too many catergories. When you start a forum you only need a small amount of catergories to get people interested then when it grows make it bigger. People will not bother to join if its not simple. I have seen many forums flop over time and I have my own forum which is very sucessfull have a look at mine for ideas www.shelledwarriors.co.uk

regarding my forum and the fact that you think the colours are too bright most members seem to like it plus if you joined the forum youd see that their is a selection of 8 skins to use.
the amount of catergories is fine as my forum is encompassing all types of animals not just a certain kind!.
its not an invert forum as one of you said above as if you had took the time to even look you would have seen that it encompasses more than just inverts! ie fish ,gerbils,dogs,cats,hamsters,ferrets,rats.as well as the invert part of forum theres stuff for all
thanks for all you kind words on my forum lol as for flopping well if it flops it flops we have 16 members including myself which isnt fantastic but isnt bad for only 3rd day of forum
thanks again everyone! ;D bye for now! ps theres a snail section too oooh!

Not a bad forum at all,colours are a bit bright but not offputting I think.It has a lot of categories but they way the lay-out is,it's still easy to use in my opinion.I wish you good luck and will pop in now and then.

We're not saying get rid of al them catagories, but were saying i think; Make them into sub-catagories. So theres like a catagory of; Invertabrites, that all invertibrate forums go in there..... If you get me?

yeah i get ya! lol i made the catergorys and some boards and charlie made the mantid boards n stuff but tonight ive been making adjustments to skins and rearanging catergorys! so the colour is easier on the eye but i wont lie!!! i was having severe difficulties in trying to make skins!!!!seemed whatever i did was too bright!! or clashed! think i have it now In my first day of opening i had 20 members within 3 months 300 members we had to start over 3 times now, we started off as a free forum. <<<<<wow!!!!!!!! well done! ;D obviously my forum is poop lol! but it might get better i know you werent meaning it to flop but i dont really mind if it does as this is my first attempt and seeing as i know virtually nothing about computers then its a struggle but seems to be coming along now hopefully if some of you could spare 5 mins and come along and give me your expert opinion on snails thatd be cool! maybe write up a small post about various species of snails as i knw nothing on snails bar giant african land snails itd be much appreciated well thanks for the tips and bye for now folks! spiderman81.proboards92.com/index.cgi

Muuuuuuuch better colours My advice? Stick with it, and plug it wisely - dont spam boards or pm folks without them asking - pass it on to people you speak to instead, you'll get much more respect and less trolls that way I started my forum back in 2001, and it's now got 600+ members. It's not a snail/invert forum though, tis for rescue greyhound and lurcher owners. To be honezt though I've let it go to pot over the last year, so it's kind of run itself.
