Yeh, I layout mine similar to that, though there's quite a few main categories on my forum. Here's my lay-out of my board.
1) General:
1 = General Discussion
2 = Entertainment
2) Music:
1 = Rock & Metal
2 = Punk/Ska & Emo
3 = Other Music
4 = Music In General
5 = CD Reviews/Artist Profiles
3) Instruments:
1 = Instrument Discussion
2 = Audio Arena
4) Site:
1 = Site
2 = Mod Forum
The important announcements are in the site forum, and I prefer to keep it at the bottom. At one point, we had about 2 more music forums, but I got rid of them and we split the threads and posts into the other forums. One thing I hate about a board is having to many forums with no posts. Especially when a forum is just starting out. When there's 10-15 forums in a brand new forum, it doesn't appeal to me.
My forum started out with about 6 forums, and now we're at 11, and we'll end up adding more in time.
