Review Symbianism.net

[techdx69]

The site used to be a big site when it was on a .com domain, about 100k+ members, however, lotta stuffs happened between admins and financial problems with dedi server, so it was closed. And used to be a vB forum & sold the license to a friend.

Now, I restarted it on a .NET domain, and didn't have enough for a vB license, so I use myBB as my forum script. Traffics are still okay but comparatively low of course, since its only a 1month forum.

Forum Link:- http://symbianism.net
Blog Link:- http://blog.symbianism.net

Please give you review and suggestions or opinion or some constructive criticism.

Thank you in advance.

I always liked this blue color
as for forum; the skin is good, while registering it asks additional information, maybe you can add there another box called "Your Mobile Phone Brand/Model", and i hope spammers will leave your forum alone

as for blog; there is no direct link to symbianism.net back(if there is, i couldn't notice). Maybe you can add there a Forum link on the header. I don't know if you wanted forum and blog to be different colors, but it is not bothersome. It separates them.

good luck with the website

Thank you, glad you like my skin. Okay yeah I think I should add that(that detail field option was there on the old domain though), but yeah you reminded me. Thanks, and certainly I hope spammers will leave my forum alone.

And looks like you also have a site with the "ism" thingy.

Yeah, this theme I used was a premium template from katz, its so hard to customized it, or edit the header, there's something wrong with it. But yeah I'll find a way.

And this doesn't seem to flow with the forum? *sigh*, I thought I changed the font text it would've looked more or less the same kinda "theme". But sadly as you mentioned its not. But yeah its hard to find wordpress themes which is of the same color as my current board.

Thanks for your C&C. I appreciate it.

I also had funism domain before
yeah i know it's very difficult to find lookalike/same skins. That's why i stick with WP Blog and a forum plugin which is pretty good (you can see it on both of my websites)
the colors being different is not bothering me, but i will PM you soon about this.

Now with some help from Psycho and all, what do you think of my forum and my blog, cause after the help and suggestions from Psycho, my blog theme changed completely. Cheers
