Looks good T, the skin looks good. I like the rss and twitter icons on top :P
Ok here we go..
I actually came across your site the other day and it reminded me much of MovieBin, when comparing your site to MovieBin I have to say that MovieBin wins in some instances, and mainly due to the great slideshow effect Sherwood is using on his index.
With that being said however, if this was my site this is what I would do.
You have About Me, Twitter & Photos on the bottom. Two of these area's are empty and one is (no offense) pointless. Nobody cares about the "About Me". Remove that entire portion of the footer.
What to do with the Twitter & Photos? On the right portion of your site where you have the "Advertise here" blocks I would place the Twitter, Photo spread, and whatever else. I think you could utilize the side portion of your site much much better than you have. Whether it be with the soon to come Twitter/Photos or something else. There are plenty of cool mods out there that you could utilize there.
I would also put a steady Recent Thread/Content there. You already have that on a revolving slide, but that's not good enough. Visitors are generally not going to sit there and wait to see what is all on that slide. You need a constant steady stream that is visible to the eye at the same time of all your new content. This is what you should be focusing on. Focus on filling up and utilizing all of the areas of your site.
If you pay attention, not many of the big communities have empty spots or areas for about me's. They are putting content there targeted to the majority rather than the minority. Start thinking like a visitor.
Other than that I would say your site is decent, I'll keep an eye on it.
Good luck m8
