    Hey guys,

    I just currently got my skateboarding site up and running, and I was wondering if you guys could give me some tips, or criticise the site so I can make it better.

    Here is the link:

    Thanks!!

    Hi,
    Great work. The one thing that I saw was when you increase the text size the writing by the social bookmarking gets all jumbled up.
    nice work,
    Nick

    I only find the drop shadow on the logo not very consistent with the rest of your website, it's clean and simple, the logo, I'm sure can work without that shadow...of if I may suggest more here, why not a 3D looking or real 3D logo if you can make one or get your hands on one, it'll look cooler. just some thoughts

    As a fellow skateboarder I have to say it looks great. To fix the Social sharing text size issue just remove the texts "Share on Facebook" etc. problem solved. Or remove the text size options all together. Anyway, I like your domain name, layout and everything I wish you much success. The header is empty, but perfect for a 468x60 banner ad, so throw some banners up there and start earning money. Good luck

    I'm seeing an error whenever I click a post. Here's the error:

    "F atal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 262145 bytes) in /var/www/vhosts/skateunion.com/httpdocs/libraries/joomla/utilities/buffer.php on line 64"

    You might want to make sure your site is more stable before you start promoting it.

    The design is nice - great favicon - but you need more content - the three posts you have now aren't really enough to get people to stay on your site for very long.
