You've got a great name for yourself, and it's obviously been a huge part in the success of the site. But other than Lee, and one post by Aaron Wall, I haven't noticed any other big names. I think it would do wonders for the forums to get some big names in here posting some unique content that can't be found anywhere else.
I'm not trying to knock the forums at all, the growth is unheard-of within 6 days. Just offering my thoughts on what I think would improve the forums.  .

Excellent point. I'm going to try and get some of my big time pals on here to be more active. I think most of the authoritive figures come once forums start gaining in popularity and they have something they want to advertise or push. A lot of it can also be an ego thing. Not saying that they are all like that, but many are.
We are making a lot of apperance upgrades this weekend. New icons. Fixing the current ones so they look better around the edges, etc.
