Yea, it's a damn shame there has to be a category for each manufacturer.

Very clean and professional appearance. The only question I have is why there is a large gap between new posts and new articles in the sidebar. You have to scroll down quite a way to know the new articles module is there. Is that intentional or is something else (like your QuickLinks module) causing that gap?

It's just an opinion but I think if you could fix that issue your layout would be perfect.

hey, many thanks for your reply.
any idea how i could solve the "many category" thing in a more clean way so that users won't get hit by the amount of forums? Any help is welcome



The large gap is caused due to a skyscraper banner, which probably wont show on your computer due to adblock?



Thanks for the good feedback, I am going to optimize my forum with this feedback

If you really want a clean look you can always hide the forum categories entirely and have only Navigation Tabs or Quick Links. That would shorten your index page considerably.

The thing is you have a considerable number of members and you don't want to make sweeping changes that will confuse them or cause them to stop visiting. For your site I think the auto manufacturer's logos are self explanatory but maybe you want to give it a try on a test forum and see how it looks to you before going live with that much change.

I really like that idea and I will try to realize that!
Many thanks!

You should give the cat obove Alfa Romeo a title like "Auto-Marken"...

then (just for Audi Forum) put this css to your additional css template:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

You need the forumid before the category header and put together #forum + that id.

Hope that helps.

And I thought I had alot for forums on my board.

First you should look into your forum-list view. Thats a little displaced.

what do you mean with displaced?

I guess sooner or later I need a pro for some design stuff :/
