Well, I think there seems to be some confusion ... at least for me.

We have a Design forum, which I had assumed was for design related topics. Then we have a Website Reviews forum, which I assumed was for reviewing live sites. Sam, could you clarify the purpose of each of these forums?

Both forums are being utilized to post designs and seek feedback and criticism.

Wouldn't it make sense to have both a Design and Website Review as sub forums within the Design forum?

Or something like that.

I don't know, just a suggestion.

Good point i've also noticed this, i believe website reviews is for live sites and design forum is for all help and comments concerning design i guess, but would be wise to put both together in a sub-forum.

Hey Bryan! Sorry I haven't got round to responding to your thread untill now, I read it and it simply slipped my mind! sad.gif

Website reviews include design reviews but also browser bugs in html, code suggestion, SEO suggestions, domain etc... where reviews in the design section should only be for design/usability.

Hope that makes sense. I get where you are coming from though.

Why not lump everything together into one review forum? It could cover a whole gamut of things from initial mockups (for layout, functionality, etc.), to 'finished' templates, in-progress web coding work, prototypes, and indeed live and running web sites. If we are going to split reviews into groups, perhaps it's not a bad idea to look at the type of reviewing (form, function, prettiness, usefulness, code-reviews, etc.) rather than segregating them by the stage of production. Just some thoughts.

That could work yes. Under which category would you say it suites best?
