Good ideas, those however are content based issues that could be easily incorporated at a later stage. Right now lets just try to nail down a basic layout for a home page. Also thanks for that link, it should come in handy!
Also keep in mind that I want the new site to be more article focused. This is because I am going to be regularly publishing articles on the website that you would find on computer/gaming news sites. However, all content will be original not some rss re-post. I have a lot of knowledge about the tech industry and about things like anime that I would like to share with you all though regular articles on the main site. Also in the future I hope to even offer money for people to write articles for the site.
