Yeah guys please do provide helpful feedback, your opinions would be appreciated

Beta? I always referred that term as testing "new" software to find errors
IPB has been out of beta for months

[SLiMRiDER]

No, what he meant was that we're trying to improve the forum as much as possible.

Hey,

The site looks nice and simple, logo is a little too simple though. I'd suggest you to add the affiliates to the sidebar or even latest posts / user legend (administrators, moderators etc). Add a "Register now" image / link on guest posts? No one is going to go to this thread. They might, but they'll just visit & fuck off. If you have the guest image / text in all guest posts, i'm sure the guests will register. I'm viewing a guest thread atm, and I don't see a link checker . Add WGTools link checker? (Or even one from vB.org). I'm not sure if IPB offers a "mod" like this but what about a "You might also like these:" modification (Similar to vBulletin similar threads). The current welcome/register message is .. umm BORING. Use an image instead? .. That's all I can say for now. Keep up the good work. 4/5

I very much appreciate the feedback Hawk, we'll try do what we can to improve the site

[Mac]

Thanks for the feedback Hawk! Appriciate it very much

Logo is a little too simple though

We'll see what can we do about that. I suck at GFX so I pretty much rely on slim here

I'd suggest you to add the affiliates to the sidebar or even latest posts / user legend

We don't have any affilates ATM, but thanks for the suggestion about them being in the sidebar. About the user legend - thats dont and latest posts... I'll have to find a mod for that, IPB only comes with latest threads (i.e the thread doesn't go higher in the list when someone replies).

Add a "Register now" image / link on guest posts?

Again, if there's no mod for this, I'm left in the dark. I'll have to rely on that the guest will see the register message (image in the future, that is).

I'm viewing a guest thread atm, and I don't see a link checker

Well, I added this but I don't like how the creator imagined it to be implemented. I think I'll have to roll without this one until there's a proper mod.

what about a "You might also like these:" modification

Is it really necessary? I never used that on any forum in my life, lol. I'll ask the members.

The current welcome/register message is .. umm BORING. Use an image instead?

Will be fixed soon. Hey, at least our message is hand-written (well, hand-typed lol), it's not a predefined one
