They look great. but what about the social media profiles? Many people use them and you can promote our forum in those sites.
Yeah, for sure. Feel free to talk about us on your social networks. A shoutout to bring awareness of our community can help. It doesn't have to be the index page either, if there is a thread you particularly like, sharing it through twitter and facebook will get other curious on it, maybe engaging them enough to decide our community is worth their time.
Also, we do have a twitter and facebook account, but I haven't really posted through them enough. Once they have some content, I will make sure to add them to the side of the forum.
