The layout looks great .. slick and simple, no bells and whistles ... still need to see what kinda title banner you'll put in it, but for now it looks okay... You may wanna put some sort of design in the menu headers for flavor.

The flash intro is short... you may wanna put some sort of flash slideshow at the background of the scrolling text effects... maybe some pictures of hardware, or even the blue screen of death... anyway, the intro is too plain, but the music works.

You might wanna use a different font from the Times New Roman you're using, and check for typos! (i.e. discliamer)

Let me know the progress on the layout, and good job.

Site looks better though :) Maybe in time you can incorporate flash into your site also besides just an intro :) Or maybe for the top have a flash banner..?

Just in case you didn't know yet, Bob ... you can run CGI scripts "outside" your cgi-bin :)

Hence, if you want "forums.systemoverload.net" to automatically link to your forums, then create your ikonboard in your "forums" folder... then find a way for index.cgi to run your board :)

Hehe. Thanx Laggy. I knew that already though. Reseveing that spot for the new forum script when it comes out. That way I can do a freash install of it. Which i dont plan on upgradeing ANYTIME soon. It is just preperation for when I do. In fact if I can get the money this summer. That spot is reserved for UBB. Muhahahhahahahaha

BTW I worked in the new layout on my site.
