Should we have a front page? Either a graphical splash page, or more of a portal like TheForce.net? Or do you like the news on the front page?

Fighting is terrible, but not as terrible as losing the will to fight.

No. Waste of time.

I voted no, not because it would make access time longer or whatever (use bookmarks for that.. lol), but simply because I like the way you get to the front page and see the latest news right away.

 

That way you can either check out the latest happenings (for example the Rebellion Reloaded screenshots) or delve into the forums.

 

If there was but a splash screen I'm afraid I might end up going to the forums right away, skipping the important news.

No for me as i like the existing one.

 

However i would like to see the inclusion of a good old fashioned shout box on the entry page as it adds a bit more fun for people and its easily viewable to all.

Not if you configure the shoutbox to a max of three posts in a row and only allow the registered users to use it. :)

 

Your site though and i am happy with your decisions.

I vote yes, but only if there will be some sort of navigation like this:

 

-Sort of logo or picture (small sized, not for broadband only)

 

-link: Jump to Star Wars Rebellion Fansite

-link: Jump to Star Wars Mods Home

 

That would be pretty much my goal. A general links to the all the related sites, probably a news headline listing.

 

But since it seems No is the majority right now, I don't feel its too important to work on.

I voted yes, as long as it's going to be nice looking and functional...
