Any Suggestions to make Stargate Command better?

As the board is still small and relatively new, have you considered transitioning to InvisionFree hosting? In my experience (also supported by a multitude of surveys and the like), IF provides a more aesthetically pleasing layout, easier member controls, more features, easy navigation, better skinning, mods, and support, better ACP, multi-mods, and the like, etc., etc.
So, all in all, as far as quality of host and aesthetic qualities go, you might well want to switch to IF. Admittedly, the transition takes a while to get used to, but, better quality boards generally mean more and more dedicated members.

Perhapse you could include an Introduction board? Just to have people introduce themselves and such.
And over at one of my other forums, we have a ranking system, where each character has their own "clan" and you can pick which clan you want to be a member of. For instance, if you're a huge fan of Jack, you could become a member of Clan Jack, or if you like the Goa'ould, you could become a member of Clan Anubis, or Clan Baal. You know, stuff like that. It could be fun, if it's not too hard to add or anything.

Yeah, ok. That's a good idea.

In the Fan Fiction section, maybe you could section it off? So that it has Canon fics, AU, Crossovers, Non-Stargate, etc. That way it would be more user friendly, and easier to find specific types of stories.

Hello! I just had a little suggestion that might make the skins look a bit more pleasing to the eyes. Don't get me wrong, I love the colors and the pictures, but I just think that the repeating pictures in the background tend to make it look more cluttered. I was just wondering if there is a way to prevent the background picture from tiling. This might just be me *shakes head* but I just thought I would offer that out.

I'm competent in Photoshop and making and designing graphics so if you need any help with images, just let me know.

Concerning...?

Well concerning the entire forum really. Liking Stargate, you are probably interested in Sci-Fi in general and are familiar with the AvP (Aliens vs Predator) verse. I often portray myself as an Alien/Human hybrid, so I was wondering if it would be a breach of any rules or just generally looked down upon if I continued this portrayal. So this would effect my interactions with other members in all areas of the forum, especially in the 'Choose Your Side' aspect. Where-in I would prefer to ally myself with the Tau'ri, but be an Alien hybrid. I guess what I should ask is, would you prefer everything in this forum, excluding specific fanfiction crossover sections, to be canon?

Well, the site, in general, really isn't for the purpose of RP. The 'Choose Your Side' is for the purpose of friendly competition within the site. In the RP section, though, you can portray yourself as whatever you wish.
Is that kind of what you're asking?

I don't know... xP I'll just see how I go and if I do something wrong just slap me on the nose.

Don't worry, there's really not much you can do wrong.

Um, could I suggest a different color for Tau'ri or at least a different blue so it's not blue on blue and you can't see the person's name?
