Gaming Window

So here we go.

Formally known as Forum 'n' Stuff I'm here to show off Gaming Window.

I've recently changed my domain + theme.

Please let me know what you think

Also, improvement ideas ?

Url?..lol

 

Well... That was silly of me... My bad here we go... http://gamingwindow.com/

 

Could anyone give me a review on this ? Or a rating out of 10

Must be doing something wrong, It's been up for a few months now not really had any genuine members join Most of what you see are being paid to post! I'd love some help

 

Well how are you advertising and marketing? I don't think there's anything wrong with your site itself, but there might be with your promotion efforts.

Realistically, there are tons of gaming forums out there so in order to get people to join, you're going to need to stand out and give them something they can't get elsewhere. For some forums, that's an awesome community vibe. For others, it's articles or videos, etc. What makes you stand out?

 

here you go @damowhite666

My first review of it is you need to seriously work on the speed of the home page. Just going off what I see in firebug is the images you have in your slider could be optimized. Here are some tools to help, I’ve used smush it before, it’s nice.

Also I’d remove the chatbox to guest, it’s constantly refreshing the page.

I’d see if I could style the facebook like box, I’m not sure if that’s possible but I’d look into it or make a new box just with a “like” button, the white really makes the nice style you have, look bad.

Again on your home page I’d consider removing the members online and maybe the members in chat. There are zero users online now, and one in chat.. not very inviting I like the members online recently block since it’s shows a few, I’d highlight that info.

Do your usergroups have different colors to them? Might be something to consider if not.
I like the style, it looks like a gameing site, the logo could use some work.

Checking out the forum index now

It looks good, there aren’t any empty forums, all have about 25 threads or more with the exception of one section.

Again on this page, I’d trade out users online, for users visted today block
Maybe bump the new threads block to 7 to fill up some of the empty space below those.

Consider added a notice to further explain/somewhat annoy members so they want to register.

My quick review J

 

This is good stuff. Thanks for the help
