Nice, clean colors. I like it. One thing though, if you view your site at 800x600 or lower, then your navbar links start using another line. I keep an eye on this kind of thing since about 46% of my visitors are set to this resolution. I know it's tough to deal with. Check out Dalan's drop-down menu hack. It's around here somewhere.

Also, I don't know what your users think, but I tried that flashing lightbulb thing with them once, and they just about skinned me.

I like the suggestion forum you have set up.

Do members get anything for donating money? You may want to think about that. It could help open some wallets.

I like your "Become a Moderator" link. I tinkered with this at my site but was going to have them fill out a form and then conduct an interview with them, but the idea didn't make it past congress (my moderators).

That's all I have for now. Keep up the good work!

Yes they get access into a private forum when they donate which has phone modifications and hacks that is only available to donating members, if I use the drop down navigation can i still put it up in the header?

Peter

You sure can. I have it at my site http://www.drumlines.org

I found where the hack is here, so you can check it out:

Well what i did was used a java script drop box, i have all the important links in there and I thinks its fine how it is for now, i might change it around at a later time to this hack though.

Peter

That's groovy. It works and cuts down on the space. The only difference with the hack is that you don't have to click a button.

oh ok

I went ahead and changed a few values and got rid of the "go" button and made it to take you there when you click it

Looking good!

Aesthetically, I'm not a big fan of the stock look, but that's just my individual opinion.

While I know you want to look like T-Mobile, maybe you should think about offering other styles to members, while still keeping the T-Mobile look as the default? One thing I do at my website is offer as many different styles to my members as I can, because everyone has a different opinion on what looks good on a website.

thanks AKD96 i will bring that up with the other mod
