I'll try to get the forum to automatically downsize the avatar to the required size - 25kb is a bit much for 100*100 pictures. The goal is to have pages load as fast as possible so it's better to load 10*10kb avatars than 10*25kb. :D

Search engines take into consideration the words in the filename so obviously if you want people to find the forum when searching for karting it's a lot better to have "general-karting-talk" in there rather than "viewforum." .5-10 years ago to get a top result for "karting" all you had to do was stuff the page full of the word.

General Karting Talk is actually general-karting-talk-f3.html ;).

I left the topics as viewtopicxxx.html for a few reasons.

The words in the url have become a lot less important than they used to be for indexing. At the moment I'm quite happy with the way KartingAsia.com is indexed in search engines.
