I'd like to get some critiques on the site I'm working on. It belongs to a friend of mine, and I was asked to make a skin for it, but it's nothing fancy. I'm wondering if I can get some constructive criticism on this? terathia.proboards83.com/index.cgiIt was once a site for winged wolf roleplay, but is in the process of being converted (hence the lack of boards). I use internet explorer, but have no access to other programs, so I can't see if it glitches anywhere. |

Logo: 8 I like it a lot but the size and proportion is a little unpleasant. If you made it shorter and wider, it would blend better.
Skin: 10 Awesome job with this. It looks great, especially with the background picture.
Coding: 9 I don't personally love this style, but it is a good design and looks well organized.
Content: 4 The boards you have look great, but you are hugely lacking. I'm sure it's just because you're still starting up, but definitely don't forget to add 5-10 more boards.
Overall:6, for the lack of boards

Thanks^^ Yes... the boards really aren't my job, and we've just started rebuilding. I expect there'll be about 5-10 boards in each category, with about 2-3 subboards each when we're done.
Thanks!

For starters...
Uh, just to check: you are active, right? The first thing I see on this beautiful site is "I'm stepping down and abandoning the forum." While this might not be true, it's rather disconcerting. It almost made me auto-close your banner. I had to double-check to make certain that you were still going.
Anyway, I really like the idea of a space pirate, which is why I chose this site to review. Your design and layout are visually appealing, and more or less easy to follow (more on the less later). I also enjoy your intriguing name.
...digging deeper...
>Your style makes it so that some threads are crossed off. Is this intentional? because it makes me think that thread is closed, and I don't have to read it. I mention this for a very important reason: your rules are crossed off.
>You have absolutely no world descriptor. I have no idea what this forum is supposed to be about. If it's open, if there's a general plot. Nothing. I don't even know what jobs to be, the races. This is really crucial for a RPG.
>As someone mentioned, your forum is severely lacking in boards. Maybe the idea is that more will pop up as you explore (believable, in a space pirates RPG). Or perhaps some are locked off until we log in as members (I've seen this before). Regardless, a little more substance would be nice.
>TECH LEVEL. This is vital to a space pirate RP. You can have Star Wars tech, steampunk, and just about everything in between. If you're leaving this open, we need to know too.
... in conclusion.
Terathia is like a beautiful planet with no life upon it. On the surface, it's magical, wonderful, and you want to look closer. Once you get deeper, you realize that, well, you can't get deeper. I really want to see something more to sink my teeth into. You desperately need a world description, at the least, and more information would be better. Races, jobs, technology, weaponry, all this and more needs to at least get mentioned. And we really need to know whether you're open or plot based.
You've got a beautiful planet, now fill it with beautiful life.

Thank you so much for the criticism you guys, I'll pass it along to Cade.
In response:
~We aren't active yet. Cade had it in maintenance mode, which I disabled in order for you to see the progress without having to guess and doubleguess. It's been out of circuit for over three years, and just recently we decided to get rid of the winged wolves and start something completely different.
__~Quick fix: Edit, removed silly admin's message
~Striked-through posts are posts that are locked. It makes it easier to find open roleplays that way. Good point on the rules though. I hadn't thought about that...
__~Quick Fix: Made post reply on rules thread available to staff only. Removed strikethrough of rules thread.
~Lack of boards- As I said, this is a big work in progress. Cade had me do the skin, saying she'd do the rest... and just recently pawned the boards off on me to do when I started working on them to help out. So... only one person working on the boards^^;
__~Quick fix- Well... I'm getting there. I'm adding more boards gradually when I have time, and I'll start on subboards in a little bit.
~World-Race-Weapons-plot descriptions: Here is where my influence and knowledge on the site stops. I really have no idea as to what Cade is doing. I'm pretty sure that all weapons and races are open to anything, as she's not really all that big on rules. I suppose she'll eventually have me make up some sort of plot, but to the best of my knowledge, there's nothing in mind at the moment.
So, you see, you have a frazzled co-admin hereXD I'll try to fix some of that, and I'll go add more boards.
Oh. BUMP?
