Just noticed this. I agree, the main page needs a redesign. I'm not sure about moving the forums, that would be a pain to all of our existing links all across the internet.

But the main page could use some focus. The forums are the major attraction, but they are just a teeny tiny link at the top. I'd be honored to have my Picasa Albums on the front page to help show the changes that have been done, maybe a link to savestarwars.com for explanation why, or, with Zombie's permission, excerpts from the site of the basics.

An explanation of the forum and what it's evolved into would also be useful, so those who get to the main page directly don't immediately think they're in the wrong place.

Not sure how to do any of this, but it should be updated somewhat, at least with a News post that's not 2 years old. ;-)
