Some comments:
I have really tried to listen to all the feedback and I hope
everybody can feel they have been part of the process.
I have addressed the contrast issue, if anybody still has concerns
regarding this, it /might/ be a case of personal preference. :)
I have though about a million things such as: extended use of the
banner, personalisation, seasonal variations, extensibility,
AJAXification, blurbs, sponsorship etc... I don't want to crowd the
design with features up front. Those things should carefully evolve
as the community evolves. Nonetheless, I think you will appreciate
that there is plenty of space available that could be used in the
future (with great caution... :) ).
There are no bread crumbs, there is no explicit "home-button" except
the logo. This was an intentional design decision.
Per has created three more Groks. This really makes me feel that the
"new" grok style is something to be excited about! We could create
lots of these groks, even personal ones and mix and match the faces
with bodies to create a really living grok world without it being too
much of an effort. This could make the GROK community really fun and
personal but still retaining a distinguishable style. These groks are
scalable from stamp size to banners the size of a building. The style
is easy to emulate for a reasonable illustrator/freehand artist. :)
One last thing, most of the design elements will be adaptable to
presentations, printed material etc. I will be happy to create some
templates.
Now the big question is... can you live with it... ;)
