Arresto Momentum is an Alternate Universe Harry Potter canon only roleplay site which follows the canon till the trio's fifth year and deviates from the battle of department of mysteries.
The site is fairly new and thus I would appreciate any comment which would make me improve it to a better place !!

Yay first one!
Hi there!
Good Points:
I love this site - very, very pretty. Easy to read, easy to navigate, not too wide, not too thin, can find everything easy peasy. Big thumbs up and much love - it's beautiful. Especially love the hover effect on the logo and info at the top. Everything I say below is a serious nit pick. But I figure that's why you're here right?
Might Need Attention:
At the top of your site you still have "Staff Name" as the hover info on your staff hover images. This seems very cut and paste template - you might want to change this to "Open" or "N/A" or just have no hover on those images for the time being?
In the info it says the "current time is July 1997". That's just irritating grammar as months and years aren't "times".. like on a clock... and would bug me (told you, serious nit pick sorry). Maybe "It is currently July 1997"? ((this is just me being seriously OCD - if you want to ignore me feel free)).
There should be a space before Please in your credits text. ((Sorry, couldn't restrain myself from saying it. See comments about mad OCD above)).
The boards are a little.... samey. Don't get me wrong - they are lovely. But when you scroll down it's a little repetitive. Might I suggest integrating some kind of latest poster avatar or a faded out location image in the title bar of each board perhaps? It doesn't have to be a lot, it doesn't have to be obvious. Just something subtle to break up the repetitiveness might make the site a little nicer to look at when scrolling.
You have no boards in your archives category. Not necessarily a problem but it seems random to have the category there is there's nothing in it. Plus, because of your coding, the message to say that there are no boards there is cut off so it looks a bit weird.
Atm Draco Malfoy is being shown on the left of the info center but I'm not sure why. Is he the member of the month, or the latest poster or... what? I know he isn't the newest member because George on the other side says he's the new member... And it says "Draco Malfoy" created by "Draco Malfoy" which seems silly. Oooooh is it the latest thread? Has someone posted an application entitled with their own character name?? Okay, that might be it, but see? It took me a moment to twig...
You have the shoutbox active at the bottom of the screen which a) is odd when you have a cbox at the top of your home page and b) it just kinda fades into nothingness because it's not customised. Just kinda looks a bit lost and... odd.
I can't help but feel like the whole site (especially that bottom shoutbox) looks a little like it's lost at see in your background. Personally, I would probably put a background in where you have a block colour running down either side of your forum, so that you have your site nicely bordered and framed on either side. This might give it a touch more "organised" / "polished" feel.
Hope these comments are helpful! Once again, I think the site is beautiful. Your templates on your default threads are lovely and your mini profiles are pleasing to the eye too. Really awesome job!!

Hi JD
First of all ,thank you for taking time to go through AM !! I really appreciate it
Thanks a lot !! I am glad to know that it is easy to go round the site. I have intended for it to be simple yet aesthetic and really happy to hear that it was achieved.
And yess, I am here to know on the things which need improvising !! so thank you for pointing it out to me !
I remember changing this as N/A.. never mind,Thanks for pointing it out.. This has missed my eyes altogether, given that it would be behind the hover.. and yess, i agree that it looks rather boring tbh..
Again, I remember changing this, I guess that session was not saved and I failed to notice it .... Thanks for pointing it out !!
Noted !! I do tend to skip the spaces at sentence start
This is a nice suggestion.. Would look into adding some hover effects or such if possible .. OR may be I can try something else.. Either way thanks
I still needed to add into the board. I have been postponing this one and few other board creations, Will do it now
Oooh interesting... it is quite different to see it from layman's perspective !! I agree that it would take some time to figure out what it actually is.. I will add some description of sorts (if the coding allows for it)
Not customized at all.. I didn't find a way to do it which blended well with the site .. so need to work on this as well (added to to-do list)
I understand what you mean, but I think it is going to be a lot more difficult for me to integrate into the forum.. Thanks nonetheless
Once again THANK YOU !!! I really am glad to have your opinion and a few are really great suggestions I've got I customized the Mini-Profile myself, so as to cover everything without having to go to each profile.
