Not a good first impression

If I went on a forum for the first time and saw so much stuff on the top, I would automatically be put off by it.

I can understand the advert being there, the notice about IE problems and the welcome notice (which can be made nicer). But whats the point in the big banner advertising Rare Values announcement? Whats the point in the "top secret prize" announcement? No Habbo will register just because of the top secret prize if they don't know what it is.

When someone first goes on the forum, they cant actually see any content at first glance, just adverts and notices.



Now compare that to CHF:

It does make HxF look like one of those website placeholders for adverts, waiting for people to buy the domain All it needs is the welcome notice, the IE notice is for registered users (thus the point of the announcement).

I think the bottom 2 notices could go, maybe if the bottom one is needed it could be merged in with the main announcement one?

I swear to god they're about the same length but you've just made the CH image longer lol

oh lol probably looks that because habbox is just bulkier, why can't we just have a simple, pleasing skin like ch lol :/

I find the default CHF skin colourless and bland, like eating a rice cake. The default HxF skin is like a rice cake with orange added in for flavour on a blue plate

Don't even compare the sleek look of CH to these monstrosities!

The skins CHF had during Christmas was just amazing.

Yeah, that was real good. They have no history though!
