i like the fact that it’s looking less cluttered - nice work. i would prefer mono-coloured icons personally though - probably black/white vector art. i think this would make it look smarter in a similar manner to how the social icons at the bottom work.[/quote]
I agree, making all the icons like that would put the focus on the website’s main colors, white, green and dark gray. The icon colors are a distraction. Removing them would make everything less cluttered looking. TheWildHorse would need to find the right icon set for this. Also, in my post above I asked him whether it was possible to move those social icons to the navigation header where they’ll be most visible. Lots of people don’t scroll to the very bottom of the page, so we’re missing out on a lot of Facebook likes, Twitter followers and Reddit subscribers.

sorry, also do we need the icon image in the top left now that the header looks like it does…? may make it look even smarter/more uncluttered with just navigation at the top.[/quote]
This is something that TheWildHorse would have to decide. It is a bit redundant now, plus lower quality because of the size reduction to fit it in the navigation. If it was removed, there would be lots more space for more navigation buttons, including the social media icons.
[quote=“RobertLloyd, post:60, topic:2499”]Is it possible to move the “Why Peercoin?” question higher, so it is immediately under (or part of) the “Peercoin is here” bar?
I suggest this because visitors need a reason to be interested in Peercoin - and so answering the question “Why Peercoin?” ought to be one of the first things they see[/quote]
Ok, this makes. The “Why Peercoin” section should come before the 3 features. I moved the market cap counter down and “Why Peercoin” up. Also, the reason why the “Why Peercoin” section is so short is because when we originally wrote this, we were trying to fit it in this tiny space. You mentioned having a mission statement wrote up about our goals and standards for Peercoin. This would be the perfect place to include it. You’d need to do it in the content thread though here.

At the top of the page, to the right of “Forum”, can we insert a link “Newsletter”, leading to the email form for joining the newsletter list? At the moment, the newsletter invite is down the page - it ought to be at the top[/quote]
I added a 3rd green button to the dark background. Not sure if this is the right place to put it. I’ll leave it up to TheWildHorse to decide that.
Note: the concept image below originally featured a 3rd button in the dark header for the newsletter, but it looked too compacted and full of buttons, so I removed it. RobertLloyd made the suggestion below of including it in a drop down menu in the main navigation.
