Generalities

1. First Impressions-14/15
The banner really stands out! When i first visited, i first noticed the banner and than the pop up. I think you should disable the pop up as it is irritating and it blocks some stuffs. The skin totally fits your Harry Potter forum!
2. Categories & Forums-12/15
I see some forum inserted in one category each. Maybe you should throw in at least 3 forums in a category instead. 1 in a category is'nt a good amount and will make your forum look weird and messy. You have all the necessities in your forum. Introductions, rules etc. Well, good amount. Still can work on your forum descriptions.

Forum Style

1. Major Graphics-3/10
I
really like your banner:) I can see that your forum favicon is provided freely by Forumotion. Can work on that. I also know that you created the skin all by yourself as you mentioned a few days ago. Very good job on your skin. Love it so much! Good graphics skills but you still have room for improvement! Have to work on your forum's affiliate image!
2. Forum Layout & Color Scheme-10/10
Good job on your skin once again. You created the skin all by yourself which makes it looks so pro. It totally fits the "Harry Potter" show/movie. Colors match perfectly well! Black is a good color for Harry Potter forums.
3. Images And Icons-8/10
Neat, excellent, fantastic, brilliant! If you created the icons too, than you're an excellent Gfx Designer! Very well done! I cant find what the icons that represent each forum means. Should'nt there be a legend below the forum?

Usergroups

1.Population Of User Groups-6/10
From
what i can see, you have 7 groups. Good portion. I also understand that every member joins a team. Like the Hufflepuff:) I wonder if i'm saying it correctly. I have'nt been watching Harry Potter lately. But i cant wait for the Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows movie! Anyway, every group have at least one member including you.
2.Staff Groups / User Groups-6/10
If i'm not mistaken, you have 2 staff groups. Which are the Head Masters and Assistant Professors. Good amount. Maybe have a Gfx Designer group in a Harry Potter forum;)

Usergroups total :: 12/20

Forum Activity
1. Post/Member Ratio & Quantity-6/10
Our users have posted a total of 652 messages
We have 41 registered users
Average ratio. But a good ratio for a new forum. Still can improve here:) I dont see a Forum Games section. Maybe consider having one. It can bring your post count to a higher level.
2. Users Active-8/10
Members connected during last 24 hours : Blackcat, hermione granger, kingsleyshacklebolt, nevillelongbottom, Professor Dumbledore, Professor Flitwick, Professor Remus Lupin, Professor Severus Snape, Professor VampireLord, Voldy(11 members) Not bad! 45 members and 11 members active! About 30-40%! But yet again, room for improvement:)

Overall Marks

70/100 Congrats! You passed!

The Conclusion

Nice Harry Potter forum! I like the fact that this type of forums awards points to teams. Like Hufflepuff and such:) Gel your members together and make them have good member relationships with each other:) A forum with good friendship--> A forum that will always be remembered!
