I like it.  It's better organized and looks very crisp.  It's also less scrolling and I like some of the ancillary little things there (i.e. goriest games).  Nice job.

Glad to hear everyone loves it. We'll be updating more areas on the rest of the site in the next 1-2 months. We're also going to revamp the forums as well.

Lots of great things to come!

Hi Alex,

The new homepage is great. I think it would be better if you listed "Forums" as a main menu heading instead of a subheading under Community. We all know how the forums help to sell DS computers and a first time visitor may miss that the forum is available.

You're right. The team removed the Battlebox featured spot and replaced it with the community forums. What do you all think of it now?

Hi Alex,

I never saw the Battlebox Feature. I was commenting on the menu headings as they appear in the link you listed. I guess "Community" is a pretty accepted menu listing today. I just thought that it would be more meaningful as "Forums" or "DS Forums" instead of community. I know a relative novice computer user may not connect "Community" as where the Forums are located. It is not a big deal and fine the way you have it.

Hi bprat22,

I see you are still around helping people buy the best computer for their money. Thanks for the greeting.

Frank

Valid points, I'll share it with the team. I feel the way it is now should be perfect.
