So talk as been going around of a possible network being produced which would be a group of sites owned by Crayo or other users.
I've been considering this and had a look at designing a site to advertise each forum creating the perfect network for it.

For a current look at it's progress check here.

For a look one how I feel about the look of the site click the spoiler.

Just noticed the background. It is horrible. Will probably update that soon. (Right/Wrong?)

I want a lot of feedback on any small detail you can pick out. But I've been working on this for around an hour, so updates are needed, don't jump to conclusions.

Thanks

Thank you for thinking on the same wavelength as me. I was thinking of a domain to use (hence my domain thread) for a network of our forums.

I personally really like the background as it's nice and simple. The logo is horrible and makes it bad. I love the screenie thing, where you go along. That's freaking epic, but I would add that code to a "preview page" and have the home page as just hyperlinks of our forums in a list. And have Preview at the top with "home" and "contact" or something, yeah?

If we could get a nice banner, with a nice image (like a small logo) then the homepage would be nice and simple. Preview page will be that slide show thing, which is so win. With descriptions of the forums underneath, and the URL.

Contact would be if someone wanted to buy one maybe.
 

3 pages ranging from.

Home (List of all the Forums)| Preview (Page I have shown above) | Contact (well contact)

Yeah and I know about the logo, I just did a quick one just to show the structure.

Yeah, that structure I think would be good don't you?

Yeah sounds good. I'll carry on working on it tomorrow and get it done soon I hope.

Anymore ideas. Post and I'll be happy to see about implementing.
 
Why have a completely separate page for the preview widget? People spend an amazingly short time on websites, so you'll need the most relevant focal point on the main page.

Obviously not all of the sites should be placed into this slideshow, otherwise it would get massively bloated and it's highly likely anything past the 5th image wont get seen.
Just place the most important inside the widget, then place the complete list of sites underneath that widget and structure it similar to this.

My 2p.
