The Admin Zone is a great resource for this sort of matter (I know I mention it a lot, but I swear I'm not spamming), even if it does run on vBulliten. 
I will say that in terms of first impressions:
a) You have a lot of announcement forums and other mundane stuff placed at the top of the forum listing. Generally, you want the most interesting forums up top to attract visitors' attention.
b) You have quite a few forums, which both makes scrolling from the top to the bottom a pain and spreads postcounts out too much, thus making your board seem less active than it is.
c) It's not that apparent what the board is about.
I hope that helps!
Moved to modifications
I'd ask the mod's author about this, either in its release topic or via email.

What is bad??
My site or the fact that I used frontpage 2003????
Primarily Frontpage. But the fact that your site is a bunch of copied scripts and Frontpage-generated code doesn't make that very good either.
I don't know elbekko, I've fallen in love with this concise coding style:
<tr>

<p style="margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px"><b>
<font face="Arial" size="2">- <font color="#3399FF">
<a href="news.php">

Well, having multiple URLs for one site is bad for SEO, so you might want to address that.
If reputation_plus enables/disables the mod, what does reputation_minus do?
tryadmin wrote:Looks great, Ill give it a shot right now. Thanks!!
BTW- Where in the page do you recommend me inserting this code?
You shouldn't insert it anywhere. It's code copied from install_mod.php to give you some idea of the DB structure. Assuming you already have the mod installed, you need to use phpMyAdmin or another tool to modify the column(s) (depending on whether you need the last voice column to be set from the beginning).

Personally I don't mind having closed-source apps like Flash mixed in with my OSS system, but I understand that some do. I wonder if the Flash output of this program is compatible with Gnash or Swfdec.
switch ($db_type)
{
case 'mysql':
case 'mysqli':
$sql = 'ALTER TABLE '.$db->prefix.'users
ADD COLUMN reputation_minus INT(11) UNSIGNED DEFAULT 0,
ADD COLUMN reputation_plus INT(11) UNSIGNED DEFAULT 0,
ADD COLUMN last_reputation_voice INT UNSIGNED
';
break;
}
Can you set the default value of reputation_plus to 10 and that of last_reputation_voice to the ID of the administrator?
When you check to see if this works or not, keep in mind that it will only apply to new users.
Ha! Good point 
Which reputation mod do you use?
Why do you have two domains?
And if there's supposed to be a banner, I don't see it.
Publish to Flash, AVI, WMV, EXE and PowerPoint.
Your best bets for cross-platform use will probably be Flash or AVI.
It's hard to say. Sometimes designs and PunBB play nicely with each other, sometimes they need a lot of work. It's best just to take a quick crack at it and evaluate how much more work it'll need.

That's merely emulation under which the programmes can run. Must admit, I'm curious about the question too.
You could get into some serious flame wars calling what Wine does emulation.
Anyway, I know it doesn't convert anything; I just mentioned it because I'm not sure what he's doing.
See for yourself (subject to change, of course).
You need to include include/parser.php.
Will it be hard to upgrade to vanilla 1.3? Probably not.
However, your mods will not be carried over. You'll have to wait until their developers convert them into extensions or do so yourself (as far as I know a beta version of 1.3 will be released for this purpose).

And you can do it, too. 
.bin files behave somewhat like .exe files.
You can also run some .exe files through Wine, and Mono compiles C# programs as .exe files and runs them.
I'd be interested to know exactly what you're hoping to do.
Can you modify the default value of the reputation column in the users table? I've never used the reputation mod so I'm not sure how it's structured, but this method seems logical.
In that case, just skip elbekko's mod and remove this block of code from register.php:
// Check that someone from this IP didn't register a user within the last hour (DoS prevention)
$result = $db->query('SELECT 1 FROM '.$db->prefix.'users WHERE registration_ip=\''.get_remote_address().'\' AND registered>'.(time() - 3600)) or error('Unable to fetch user info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());
if ($db->num_rows($result))
message('A new user was registered with the same IP address as you within the last hour. To prevent registration flooding, at least an hour has to pass between registrations from the same IP. Sorry for the inconvenience.');
