Quick Review: General Discussion

General Discussion

First impressions- The (rather nice) smiley icon stands out for me.
The forums look very tidy, and neat, and I'd probably rate the spelling and grammar 90/100 (or 9/10).
Don't understand the favicon very much, but it's okay. The one thing I did notice was that the white text (Search, Members, FAQ, The Team, Affiliates) clash with the banner, so you can't read the sub text on the banner very well.
I liked the old green theme more, even though I like the new mascot you have recently made (the smiley). Perhaps make the theme changeable (if you can't already)?
Animal Discussion (the forum) has a rather small description (compared to the others), I suggest you added a few more words, e.g This is the place to talk about animals/Talk about anything related to animals here.
James Bond discussion is a little- pointless. Add it as a sub forum somewhere else. Tropical Fish is also a area I don't understand- not many (if any) people ever want to discuss it.
I think you have excellent statistics, 9,000 posts is very good, considering you only have around 40-50 members, but I suggest doing some more posting deals, or get some more new members to join, as otherwise it will be a small group.
I think overall, I really like the forum, and I wish I had made it.
Overall Verdict:9.5/10

Thanks Daisy for doing this review.

You're welcome
I suppose this can be moved.
