It looks pretty nice. Keep up with the good work LB!

At the very least the forums have to be a central element, because this is where we really want new people to come.

Michael makes a good point, somehow we need to have a homepage that provides content but is more directing towards the forums.

I'm not quite sure how to do this, any ideas?

What I meant was like a youtube video flashing loads of mR builds then redirecting them to the forum page?

The biggest issue I have seen with the old homepage is that it's usually not up to date with the correct server IPs and such.

The new homepage looks nice, LB. Good work. One suggestion I have is making it more obvious that we have a menu on the side. Maybe something that slides out and says 'click for more info ' or something.

That would not be professional. We need a real main page, like the one LB is working on, which is perfect btw.

Having just a video of builds as a main page is somewhat lame and arrogant. That would be like : Look at our builds, they are better than yours.

No, a main real main page with a wiki page like we have, informations and a list of servers is the best way to go.

I dont really see whats wrong with the current page apart from the fact that it never gets updated

I do want some sort of gallery featuring our work on the homepage. There is some amazing talent in this community and some amazing stuff in the servers! The current homepage is good, but it lacks the professional look that the one LB is working on.

Just in-case no-one has seen it on the new homepage navigation menu.

I shiggity diggity do

What you have right now looks really good, though.

For the links like Home, Forum, Wiki, Etc.. we should use the images from teh currrent site to make new ones. That's one thing that looks good about the current site.
