General
Hello and thanks for checking out my thread. Im new to the forum business but from the comments i have been getting recently i feel im off to a good start. As you can see my forum is called "GFXMarket" which is a graphics forum obviously, the market section is where you can sell your services such as signatures you have made, backgrounds anything GFX related. GFX artist are always going to be needed so if you into graphics and looking to improve be sure to check out my site.

Competitions
Within the next week or so i plan to run a referral competition, this basically means the person with the most referrals will win a prize which will most likely be cash. I plan to run serveral more competitions later on but right no my focus is getting a active community going.

Staff positions
At this current time i do not need staff as im sure i can moderator a forum with 6 people. I plan to start recruiting members for my team when the community reaches around 200 members, this may change due to personal issues such as college, work anything that may stop me be from being unable to access the site daily. So keep an eye out for applications.

Other
This is my first forum so im taking things easy. Im doing as much as i can by myself and currently designing a good looking logo then i will be moving onto a custom MyBB theme. This will take time but im dedicated and willing to give it a shot before i start throwing cash around.


Thanks for reading and feel free to give feedback, Also feel free to sign up.

 

Nice site you have there, good luck... im loving the look.

 

Thanks man glad you approve. What software is this forum run on, is it IPB?

 

No its xenforo, its created by the ex-lead developer of vbulletin. Its very popular and the license costs $140... www.xenforo.com

 

Ahh my bad thought Xenforo was the maker of the theme. Might have to check it out, seems really nice.

 

Haha no its not, its cool... try a demo when you can.

 

Bump. 20+ members now and we just reached 500+ posts!

 

Congrats on your achievement but to let you know, you shouldnt bump every time when you get only a few members.

 

I bump to keep this thread active same with every other site i use to advertise my forum. Keep its at the top of the page for all to see.

 

Its considered spam when you constantly bump.

 

Do you understand the term "constantly"... I bump once a day that's far from constantly.

 

All right Guys, there is no need to argue over this. This thread can next be bumped 24 hours from now, and problem solved!

 

Easily going to reach 1,000+ posts today . Buying a database soon which will give us another 500 or so members and 4,000+ posts.

Ben

 

Congrats, but buying databases is not really good in the longrun if you dont by the domain either because the members wont be active.

 

I like your forum

 

The database im buying is from another Graphics forum, so all the content is what i need. Hopefully a lot of the members will choose to hang around.

 

Yeh it should be good, ill stick around

 

Hope it works out for ya!

 

Thanks Mr Joker are you signed up or going to? Hopefully getting that database today have 600+ members

 

Bumpy Bump. Got a few more members and we hit 1,250+ Posts doing well so far. Merge should happen soon.
