Just wanted to showoff a forum I building.

http://ALGunForum.com

This was a idea because Alabama does not have a gun owners forum and I like guns. So I built the site added the forum made the logo and used Charm to base the theme off of. Well Yesterday Facebook announced that they are going to prohibit sales of gun using pages or groups. I have offer the members of those Alabama groups a place to join and we are still uncertain how facebook is going to affect those groups so I have had 200 members join in 2 days. Not many post because more post are still on facebook at this time.

Thanks for looking.

Good idea and good luck. AR-15.com is a big source of competition. I have a couple of competitors but they discuss the militaries of other countries.

I would recommend the node icon addon and the node grid addon for you.
 
Thanks Guys, I just wanted a simple forum for people to join and I accomplished that for the people of Alabama. With Facebook deleting groups related to gun trade and sales My forum has grown alot over the past 2-3 days.
 
Changed the design after customizing it. Remade the banner with better colors and Alabama State Flag, added the Classifieds addon from G4N, Excellent addon. What do you think?

Its a larger server but I am on a shared Hosting account. I was getting errors for Host loading. But I am also configuring cloudflare at the moment and seeing how it plays with the server. my web host uses cloud linux and runs lightspeed. Only downside is they are in Vegas, but for $20 a year what can I say.
 
It looks good. I like the camo color with the target node icons, really fits well for your niche. My only concern is that the Xenforo copyright is almost invisible due to the color used in the footer. Overall, good job.

Your right! Adjusted background color to show proper footer links and text.
