It's Never Too Late - Needs Rate before Revamp

[» candy]

Here is the site

itsnevertoolate.proboards106.com/index.cgi

Currently, this site is going through a revamp, and needs a rate so I can figure out what I need to change and what not to change.

Also, ignore the amount of empty roleplay boards, I deleted all those old threads, so there's no reason to rate about those. Thanks!

well dear your site is quite nice and perfectly pleasant. to be honest though it feels quite plain. there's nothing eye- catching about the skin, and maybe you would want to make a change and attract people with your skin, which is your first impression. now i am not saying go extremely bright or out there, but your grey and grey blue is quite boring. i would add some kind of accent color just to make it pop a bit. also i now some people like the type of tables you have, but i suggest a sidebar. for some reason they seem to perferred and i do enjoy them more so than the table at the top. otherwise i'll think you will do fine. hope this helps a little at least.

I was planning on changing the skin in fact, my co-admin made that one but we broke off any ties we had together. We're hoping to get a new one soon though. I'd rather not get a side table, the top table is much easier for us to work with.

Thanks though!

like dani said, there isn't anything very eye-catching about the skin. there seems to be only two colours, like grayish and then blue. try expanding in colours. you can try here to find some backgrounds and colour palettes for them. it's a great site, you should probably register if you plan on using it but it's definitely worth it. you and your admin could have a try at looking around.
mmm there's not that much else to say. maybe try and make things stand out more by adding a few graphics? if graphic designing isn't your best area, then perhaps request something from the request board? (:

hope this helps!

Thanks, like I said, the skin was developed by my co-admin but we broke apart after some large disagreements. I've taken this site into my own hands, and I'm planning to get the skin changed once I speak to a member of mine.

heyy candy.
a gorgeous site you have there.

skin,
» like the others have said, the skin is bland, but i will not comment on that part as you've said that you did not create it.
» on the other hand, simple is a good sign on some forums and i quite like the skin no matter what the others say.

graphics,
» you have a nice amount of graphics there, you didn't take me into overload.
» even though i have fast broadband [which can sometimes be as slow as dial-up when the forum is just graphics everywhere], your forum loaded extremely fast for me and i liked that.

posts,
» you have posts in all the ooc boards but not the ic boards, but i understand why.
» before you re-open the forum, i'd make a couple of roleplay posts around the forum, even though you have members awaiting the re-opening.

boards,
» from what i can see, you have a nice amount of boards for the forum size, so good job.
» some of the board descriptions could be lengthened out a little.
» you ahve the sub-boards in board cell code, that is great for a roleplay forum.

overall,
» good job with the forum.
» it can be improved and i recommend that you try your hardest before re-opening the forum.
» if i have to score it, i'd give the forum a 9 out of 10.
» and, you have a new potential member.
