I didn't make the forums. The official forums aren't done yet.
The site itself isn't totally done as you can see
I know about the black line around the news posts.

Comments/Suggestions?

You might want to move the navigation links to the side. On the pages with a lot of content you have to scroll down to see them.. I don't like that.

Other than that, it's pretty cool... Also, I don't like the grey background around the pictures in the "Members" section...
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.

Lassev: I guess there was something captivating in savagery, because I liked it.

Ok.

The menu is hard to read and should be at the top. I would strongly recommend using text rather than images unless you are an incredible graphic designer.

Looking at your other pages, learn to use the <H1> to <H6> tags, they exist for a reason.

You're using css for layout but your use of semantic markup is terrible, this negates a lot of the benefits for using css in the first place.

Increase the line-spacing of your body text, the defaults that browsers use is too small.

Use an unordered list for your menu than style it with css.

I'm sure I can think of more but these should be enough for now.

Sarn, i don't see a grey background on the pics in members? Can your browser view .png files properly? Also, thanks Detty, will try and fix a lot of that stuff tonight or tommorow. (just realised there is no need for the png's to be png's. I'll make them .jpgs so all browsers can view them)

Cool.

Tips:
Move menu to top, maybe make a little bigger
Change the logo on the forums, can't read the name
Make headings a little bigger

Other than that, looks nice.

BTW, I love that GvG Ele. That's actually about what my RP character will be once I ascend (Stuck with Mesmer as second, only use one skill :( )

The reason the menu is at the bottom is so people have to read, or atleast see the entire page they are on before going elsewhere. It's kind of a way to make people read the guild news, heh. I think I might move it to the top afterall though. It could work out better.

Also like I said before, the forums aren't mine. I didn't make them. The forums I am making aren't done yet. Forums are a pain in the *** to set up. :)

Will increase heading size next update (tommorow morning)

Also, I still need to fix a lot of stuff Detty said.

Thanks, that's actually the only set-up that I made on that page. The rest were done by the guild leader or Alarik (Savage X). I'm real proud of it, because it's so detailed, and the set-up works so well.

Maybe because SAJN took the design from my site. :p
