Find a niche and stick with it.
People will come, the people will come.
Instead of making a new textboard just popularize this: http://71chan.co.cc/sparky4/up/. There isn't a real 2ch-type upload service for English speakers other than your site. Maybe just change the text to English?

That sounds like a pretty good idea, making the uploader the centerpiece of 71chan (also following >>22's advice to find my niche). Also what >>20 said, I'll certainly do that. Though I will, at least for now, keep the imageboards that I already have, but unless the growing community (OK, more like the two or three spammers, OH WAIT THEY'RE BANNED) demand a new board I won't add one.
