Additional Notes: WAY to many inside forums. The Coverage, while making it easier to find certain forums easier on the front page, it kinda sways people from checking out the regular larger forum. The main problems here are that you have to many forums visable on the main forum page. It would make your forum look better and easier to navigate if you make certain forums, SUB-FORUMS. This way, you can have something like this:

Metal Gear 3 Forum:

Sub-Forums: Subsistance.

This way, you'll still have all your forums but not on one page. When a member is interested in Metal Gear 3 and clicks the forum page for it, the SUB-FORUMS will appear there for them, instead of them looking for that certain forum on the main page. Having so much on the front page can actually intimidate a person into not joining.

Yeah I've to agree with you. That's exactly the same thing what my other administrator said to me, too. We do certainly have too many forums on the main page. Therefore I'm thinking of getting rid of the Classic MG forums and have them as sub-forums from now on. What do you think? And what's wrong with my skin? I thought it was pretty cool since Metal Gear is all about darkness. Nah, a light skin ain't gonna work on a MG forum, you know.

I say you just lose the Classic Metal Gear. With the new one comming out, who cares about old school? I say just keep the current one's like the PS1 version, than as sub for that - all the VR games plus the Gamecube remake. All 3-4 in one forum. See how it'll look with that.

Than for Metal Gear SOL. Forum that, than sub-forum - the remake, and that VR re-make. The Forum Metal Gear 3. Sub-forum - Subsistance, and w/e else I'm missing.

You get the picture.

The skin is kinda blah. Get a skin that uses Metal Gera icons as buttons and what not. Kinda lame sounding but it fits the theme IMO.

Uh I'm not sure if I'm gonna organize the forums like that. Each MG/S game deserves it's own forum even if the game's 1,000 years old because my forums is ALL about the MG series and I intend to make the world's largest MG community forums.

And as for the skin, we're going to have our own, custom MGS themed skin somewhere in the future. I can't afford any money at the moment 'cause I'm saving up for the vBSEO product. I really need to get this product before my custom skin or anything else.

Whoa thanks for the ratings, Hector. I'm currently working on a new forum skin. It should be a light one this time. I'll post up a preview on my forums soon.
