Additional Notes: Your forum layout is amazing! So many places to post for specific RP adventures! Very original indeed. And for a RP forum, even though with the small amount of memeber, you have a very high post count. RP forums don't usually have that many with that amount of memebers.

Additional Notes: I've seen alot of Harry Potter forums in my time but this one seems to have something extra. Perhaps it isnt the use of a Chamber of Secrets style skin that makes the forum scream originality (You get knocked down to 3/10 because of the forum theme.). I like the skin it is quite warm and appealing. The layout could do with some work, it all appears a little out of place, i know that having lots of forums can promote diversity but because most are inactive it may be a good idea to originally merge some together? Also whilst viewing the forum home page you could do with reducing the height of your "HogwartsDreamRP News" table to something less obstructing. It takes up too much of the room and is actually deterring away from your actual content.

I like how you have customized some of the more default areas of your Who's Online segment, makes it look a little bit less like InvisionFree which is always a plus. Since your main audience will no doubt be teenagers how about introducing an Arcade into the forums, (I am sure that IF supports this) this should help as an addative to getting members joining.

Thanks both for the review, I hope I can give some feedback to them XD

I hate the skins currently available on IFSZ, this was one of the best I could find, but I'm seriously thining of going with a non-themed skin. I dunno if that's a good idea, but it's always good to try out. Also about the news board, I think it's to big also, but I don't know how to resize it >_<. Also I'm still trying to be more original with the theme, but it seems it's just really hard. An arcade could be an idea, I'm gonna check that out.

Additional Notes: Average board. Fairly active members. The layout and images are nice looking. Overall, you need to attract more members, which isn't easy since there's a lot of RP boards out there. Pretty nice job.

I suggest getting more members by holding an RP event or something. Get some activity going, maybe scan for a new skin (I'm not fond of the color)

Well, tommorow a Hogsmeade weekend will start, so I hope you all won't do any reviews then XD, because half of all the boards will dissapear then, and then the Hogsmeade boards will come up. It's a big event for the members, and also the first time I'm doing it *getting fingers crossed*. Thanks for the reviews ^^

Hey ShinLi, would you be interested in affiliating with me?


Planes of Infinity hasn't officially opened yet, but we plan to open within the week if all goes well.

I have several members preregistered, so I'm not going into this completely empty-handed. I'll make a review page on TSL when we do officially open, but for now, know that we have two RPG systems; the Planar RPG which is completely original and the Mirror RPG which is inspired by anime, movies, and even Harry Potter, if you catch my drift.


Think it over, okay?
