Today, I will be reviewing the Pokemon Evolution forum!







General Appeal & Impression Scale







When viewing the page for the first time, one thing popped out at me. This was the logo, as good as it is, it covers all



of the links, including the portal, members, home, etc. I wasn't pleased with this because members would have to



manually type in links, fortunately, thats not a big issue! I suggestion pasting in the themes layout code in theme



manager provided by ZetaBoards. If that does not work, simply resize the logo and re upload it, then edit the html



code in the theme settings in ZetaBoards' themes section of admin CP. After that, the theme popped up in my head, a



perfect pokemon like theme, including pokeballs as icons. Moving on to the forum index, as I scrolled down, some



things caugt my eye, first, each forum had a picture from a pokemon game, I thought that was unique, and i kind of



liked it! Secondly, the forum had a unique "please register" redirection forum, I never saw this before on a forum, and



I thought it was pretty nice! Moving on, the forum had unique names for the forums, and they incorporated the name



"pokemon" in almost each name! If I go back to pokemon gaming, I might come back and check out this forum!







score: 20/20







Flow and the "wow effect" Tally







The theme colors look AMAZING together! The forum theme looks like a gigantic pokeball! Not only do the colors



match, they resemble the theme really well! The forum has a clean, and professional look, The boarders are really nice



and the background is very simple, and matches the theme really well! The clean theme makes the text easy to read



posts, names, usernames, etc. Overall the theme is awesome, if this was actually coded by the admin or a forum user,



then, this forum would sky rocket in this category!







score: 20/20







Content Interest Survey







Unfortunately, on the first post I clicked, the grammar was absolutely horrible! Personally I do not know how to fix this



so I would suggest the only that comes to my head, google it! The spelling is also not the best, of course, everyone



makes mistakes, so this category will be pretty hard to judge, but when there's a will, there's a way, right? After



looking around a little bit more, I figured that the grammar and spelling would not be the best on this forum, but I had



to make sure my hypothesis was correct. After browsing for bit more, I found that not the whole forum is poor in



grammar, but the content was arranged in short, choppy sentences, or in one long sentence!







score: 11/20







Customer Navigation Report







The categories and forums are really well divided. No forums are repeated twice, and the rules are in some cases so



well written, that they are the same for many forums, which makes the navigation easier because you don't have to go



through rules for all the different forums! Most topics are in their respective categories and don't go off-topic, this



makes reading and understanding topics easier! The categories are well organized and divided into seperate forums,



browsing the forum is very easy on Pokemon Evolution, if you need something like which version of the new pokemon



game should you get, then you can simply scroll to the General Pokemon Gaming forum! The organization of the forum



is very important, and this forum is very, very well organized!







score: 20/20







Visitor Appeal Study







Overall, this forum is a great place for pokemon fans. Infact, it almost persuaded me into going back to pokemon



games, but being me, I don't let desires get best of me, I would definitely mention this forum to someone looking



for a good pokemon related forum! The forum really surprised me, and I really enjoyed my time on the forum



reviewing it!







score: 20/20







Final Score: 91/100
