oh what a tangled web I weave
I think people were just summarising for simplicity (like how all the subforum names listed are just the locations without the descriptors attached), unless there is an actual push to rename the category that hasn't been mentioned yet.

No push intended

This is less about layout (which looks good so far) but another really big suggestion I think we ought to consider:
Can we add "A Star Wars Roleplaying Community" as a tagline to TheHolo.Net header images? I think putting a caption on that would give a clear impression of exactly what we do first and foremost.
Happy with the layout, although not sure if the subforums issue was settled (seemed to be some reservations above, particularly from Droo, about adding more) - I'm indifferent myself.
Happy with Charley's tagline suggestion too.
bump bump. Hey Droo, how feel you on this?
If anyone has any last thoughts, speak up now. Otherwise I'm going to set about implementing this as it is.
Just another 0.02 cents.
Looking at the forums as they stand, and based on what's been written above, I wonder if instead of just adding more 'recruitment forums' you'd instead be better off promoting the 'Groups' feature more prominently and tying it into better planning within the RP Planning forum(s) (maybe sticky threads if need be). Realistically on their own I don't think recruitment areas are going to do much IMHO, especially when they're buried 2 levels down from the main page.
(not a vote for or against either way - I don't roleplay so I defer to you guys - only a suggestion)
Aye. A thread for the group feature is a good idea.
I'll be reorganizing everything later on today hopefully.
I can see the roleplaying stuff immediately when I login.
On the downside, out of habit I start scrolling as soon as I get to the site in order to bypass the stuff that was at the top but is now at the bottom. Stoopid brain.
Sorry I completely neglected to get back to this discussion. I have no issue with any of the proposed changes except the subforums in group forums, but I have already mentioned this. I really don't think there's any need for them at all and they just add an extra inconvenience for the sake of a place that will be used for whenever a new member joins. We know how activity is in this place, it occurs in peaks and troughs, and I don't believe the influx of new group members, in the present or future, will justify the extra subforums. That said, I appreciate I'm probably in the minority with this opinion.
I like what you've done with the place
call the ghostbusters, we're being haunted!
Most of everything is moved. There is a slight issue with group subforums not behaving, so I am not going to bother with those until talking with Ogre. Also, the Archives I will wait on, since upon further thought, moving them seems a bit of an involved process. I don't want to accidentally delete anything, so I'm going to confer with Ogre on it next I talk with him.
Something looked 'off' on the main page, and just realised what - the 2 RP Discussion forums don't have the little 'Moderated by: TheHolo.Net' under their titles.
The other thing was using 'and' as opposed to '&' (used in 'Introductions & Adverts' and 'Boxoffice, Tv & Other Media').
EDIT: aside from that it looks good.

bumping this to note that I've tucked the Resources forum into the SW RP Planning and Discussion.
