I suggest changing "More Action/Adventure Comics" to "The Time Institute" since any comics discussed there will natuarally take place in setting other than the 30th century.

And shouldn't Bits of Legionnaire Business be more properly Bits 'o Legionniare Business?

I also recommend changing Creators Cosmos to "Shanghalla" and adding a genreal creators discussion forum in addition to the ones dedicated to curent Net active creators.

Good:
Legion Direct --> Trophy Room Off-Topic --> The Rift
Bad:
Legion Outpost --> Bits of Legionnaire Business General Comic Books --> More Action/Adventure Comics.
Both too clunky

See, I am not a big fan of "The Rift." I'd prefer "The Anywhere Machine." It's descriptive so ar as the name goes but also has that extra connotation for Legion knowbees, i.e. despite the best intentions of whomever starts the topic, you just can't predict what will be done with it or where it will go...

Aah, I like 'em all. Course, I'm probably biased due to my friendship with the namer.
White. A blank page or canvas. His favorite. So... many... possibilities.

Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm not making demands, or saying anything sucks. I'm just tossing out some general ideas to see what sticks. Maybe NC will see something he did not think of that he likes, maybe not.
Either way, no bigs.

I agree, Outdoor Miner -- Shangalla's for the *dead* for grife's sake! I think PB suggested "Shangalla" for a memorial thread, which is appropriate, but not to replace the Creator Forums.
Oh, and I also prefer "Legion Outpost" to the new name.
I really like the little symbols for each forum though.

I also don't care for "The Rift." The first thing I think of when I hear that term is a rift in a relationship, which is not what we want, at all. I don't mind "Bits O' Legionnaire Business," but I do think long ago and relatively obscure terms might be off-putting to new readers. One has to be aware of what those "bits" were (letting fans come up with their own characters, usually) to understand the reference. Also, I really dislike "More Action/Adventure Comics." It sounds like an ambiguous reference to both the Legion's past and non-Legion comics. (Not all of the comics discussed may qualify as "action/adventure," at that.) Sometimes the best name for something is the simplest and most direct: "General Comic Books," in this case, says it all. But that's just my opinion. Scott and Gary can call the forums Eenie, Meenie, Minie and Moe (and Larry and Curly) for all I mind.

I love the icons, too, particularly Chuck on the "More Action/Adventure Comics" forum. Very clever.

It's a modified version of the Plop! panel from the LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES Ad in DC SAMPLER #1.
