Re: new site.....

Cut the size of the banner some so people dont have to scroll left and right for anyone below 1024x768 resolutions.

Hmm now that i think about it, maybe its the skin of the site on the left site off centering it? Anyways,looks good not to busy at all. Its a clan site with all types of great info and tools for the clan to use.

Re: new site.....

Nice site .. a bit of constructive crit if thats ok?....,

I cant understand why youve used invisionboard hosting for your forum when e107 comes with a built in forum system based on invision anyway?

Do you find that your front newspage takes a while to load?. I dont know wether its my connection but i think maybe all the plugin menus are holding back the loadtime of the page? Lots of "live" menus on the frontpage is never a good thing for loadtimes unless your hosted on dedicated space.

Part from that looking good but maybe make your own bf2 theme?, its not "that" hard.

<added> ...., If your looking to make it more UF to 1024 viewers get rid of the code for the left hand graphic ( found in your theme.php and possibly in the .css file too) that says "e107 Alienware skin" your allowed to do it .. its under gpl :P

Re: new site.....

I like the color scheme.
what content manager is that? nuke?
the front page is a little busy, but thats what happens when you use 'nuke' style CMS's. might need tone it down a bit or add some interesting content.

Re: new site.....

ok took a quick whip thro the theme.php and style.css .., this is what yah gotta find and change in stlye.css

/* CORE STYLES */

body {
    margin-left:57px;
    padding:0px;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:12px;
    color: #cbcbcb;
    background-image: url(images/bg.jpg);
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: top left;
}

Change

margin-left:57px;

to

margin-left:0px;

should work and easily fixed if it breaks lofl.

you could also comment out the

background-image: url(images/bg.jpg);

bit.

/* background-image: url(images/bg.jpg); */

However it seems to make the bottom all wacky :/ but then i never said i was a css guru lol, no doubt its a footer css issue.., i suggest yah start to look into themeing as its not somethign that can be solved in a couple of posts.
