First, I want to say how much I appreciate the work pepperlandgirl is doing on the front page! If we want to make our membership grow, I think she is definitely taking us in the right direction.
If we really want to make it effective, though, we have to make it welcoming to people who visit it. We need a unifying look for the whole site. I know that opinion on baldy up there is divided, but whether we continue with him or come up with another logo/banner, we really need to decide and get it up on the front page!
I wish I could do graphics stuff, but I haven't the first clue. Is there anyone else who can help with this?
