well i have to say the colours clash abit a good start but the colous hurt my eyes.It will look better if you get some custom codes and Images like a banner Info center icons and a set of on off icons. Keep adding topics and maybe a BG. well not bad and good luck.

Things I like:
1. Everything is so nice and centered, at least on my computer, that it is easy on the eyes. I like the clean look and how it melds together, especially with the colors. I thought the colors too bright originally, but when I looked several times after that, the contrast helped to bring everything towards the actual boards rather than the background. Good thinking.
2. I like the disclaimer you have set up on your forum about the Neopets and how they are not your creation, etc. Good thinking on your part to show that you are a fan and an admirer and as such, not responsible.

Things I do not like:
1. You have a lot of boards that sound similar to me. You have the General Board and the Unrelated Board, but they sound like they have the same purpose to me.
2. The Neopets Game sections is weird to me too. You have a board for favorite games and one for least favorite...then you have a whole new section for actually playing those games. Why aren't they together?
3. I would have answered some of these questions from browsing, but access is limited in most of the cases, so I could not do so, and that is something that makes a guest edgy about signing up at times in my opinion.

Do you have rules in your forum? An introduction area? I did not see it, but I thought it might be in a section I could not access.

I think you have a good start, but you might want to condense some of the areas or explain in their description how they are different from one another so guests know there is a difference. So far, I would say a 7/10 based on what I can see of the forum.

Thank you both very much!!

Zafar: I am working on some custom icons and stuff at the moment. I made a whole set and then decided that they didn't match well enough so I have to start over again.

houdiniderek: Thanks for the compliment on the colors and disclaimer!! As for the general board and the unrelated board I thought at first that I wanted both but now I see that they really don't have a great ammount of difference and we could do just as well with only one of them!! The thing about the Neopets games and then the games section is that the first section is for talking about games from www.neopets.com I don't blame you for not understanding that because most people that don't have a neopet probably wouldn't. The other game section is for forum games that are totally different from the other games, the board I have started is just for games that have something to do with neopets. I will change some things up so guests can actually see more of the forum. I also seem to have left out the introduction board!! OOPS!! I will add one right away!! As for rules I haven't actually added them yet but I am going to!!

Thanks a bunch once again!!

Hello Good Monster. Cute name . Ok, I will start from the top and work my way down .

1. I like your banner. It's very cute, but it really could be stretched across the entire space.

2. Your menu buttons as well as your login or register words can barely be seen. Perhaps you can adjust those colors just a touch.

3. Good for you in making sure you have the permission to use the neopets as a forum. that definitely prevents future problems.

4. The green category title bars are definitely a contrast to the rest of the color, but it does work, but here is where I do have two problems. the first one would definitely have to be the amount of purplish color on the site. Although the board is seperated with a different colored border, it just seems like a lot where as some variation would help enhance it and help it to stand out a bit more. My second problem is the orange highlight for the boards. It doesn't really seem to work with the colors you have. Perhaps a lighter or darker shade of the purple if you keep it all that one color. Something that won't be as drastic as the orange. (remember, you know what your vision is for your site and I don't, so these are only my thoughts on it )

5. I saw where you said you are remaking old/new icons, so I won't address that issue at this time.

6. Again, down in your info center, the text of whatever is there (that smoky blue color) is not able to be read. Once again, perhaps change the color a little bit to help with that.

7. Actually, I think the amount of boards and categories you have are very good. Not too many, but not too few. I can't read what the title of them are because of the color, but it does look as if you have a good start with that without getting overzealous.

Overall, I would rate this 5/10, but I think you have a wonderful start and I wish you the best with it

well, the purple doesn't really go well with the pink, but i do like your banner. I see it is small, good luck in finding more members.

7/10
