    Before you comment you must know that It's a generic design because it's just a temporary template!

    That banner is an old one i found in an image folder from the old site. I put it up just so there's something for you to click to get to the main page for now. It's NOT permanent.

    The Improved Front page

    Jadugar, I hear that the Frontpage now uses the same Username and Password as the Forums. I registered a different account on the Frontpage too, but its replaced by the forum one now.

    MORE IMPORTANTLY: What do you people think shoud be covered in the news and updates on the frontpage? Release news is too obvious (and tedious) of an answer. Think hard about what you'd like to get from the Gotwoot frontpage.

    I have the following ideas:
    A weekly/monthly Anime Review section: Each week pick a new anime, post the pick and have people from the forums submit their reviews on it. Wait a week to get submissions. Then either a team of admins/mods/respected peoples picks the winner, or there is a Poll (running for one week) to pick the winner. Winner's review gets featured on the website. This would make a new anime review every week!

    Anime news coverage. What series are new, who is making them, who is subbing them. Pretty basic stuff. I can see covering major releases (Dattebayo's Bleach/Naruto, Nanashi's Eureka Seven, FMP:2ndRaid, Ani-Kraze's Monster, anything Gundam) but people can really see all that stuff on a torrent tracker anyhow... So it would be sorta useless covering more than the major releases.

    Featured Fansub group of the month: This would be different from the Anime Review of the Week. Every month someone (whichever brave soul volunteers for it, or whoever got Krb's old job) picks a fansub group and does a little writeup on them. Who are their people, what they cover, some factoids about them. Personal reaction to the quality of their work.

    A weekly/daily poll: "What did you think of this week's Naruto? Sucked, Ok, Above average, Incredible, Didn't watch. Or stuff like "who is your favorite Gundam protagonist of all time".

    Blog style reactions to specific episodes, to accompany/follow some anime releases. I personally have mixed feelings on this one. A funny/high quality critique of episodes, especially pivotal episodes would be a great IMO. On the other hand, nobody likes reading a spoiler in some wackjob's blog. So I would recommend a blog (person would have to be approved by the GW owners and staff) that tried to be as in-depth as possible WITHOUT spoiling the episode. That'd be alittle hard, but I think it's the right fit.

    This shit is pretty important POST YOUR DAMN RECOMMENDATIONS! And try to be serious about them.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I am using the same password and username from the forums but it aint working. Maybe they are still tweaking it.

    You mean like this thread, 30 Second Anime Review.

    It would certainly help people to decide which animes to choose for their viewing.

    I think Bud does that in the general anime section. Every new anime that comes out get a Bud's treatment.

    Usernames as well as passwords are case sensitive, so in my case, Wilik I would require a capital W in my username for me to login correctly on the main site.

    Liking the link to the main page at the top.

    and the case sensitivity is alright, but I could do without it(just my little nit-pick)

    the one thing I didn't like was that El-boss has that vegeta picture with only the hair(that he put on Wiper) [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

    I can't figure out how to use the gallery. It keeps saying "Welcome, guest."

    Otherwise it's all good. I even like the new banner, even if it is only emporary. And I like this idea:
    A weekly/monthly Anime Review section: Each week pick a new anime, post the pick and have people from the forums submit their reviews on it. Wait a week to get submissions.

    This could be good, especially covering new high-quality series. I don't think anybody anymore needs to read Naruto or Bleach reviews... Of course visitor written reviews are found at places like Animenfo, but if aimed for a single, objective high quality review, it would make a difference. I think a team of picking the best review could work just fine.

    Anime news coverage. What series are new, who is making them, who is subbing them. Pretty basic stuff. I can see covering major releases (Dattebayo's Bleach/Naruto, Nanashi's Eureka Seven, FMP:2ndRaid, Ani-Kraze's Monster, anything Gundam) but people can really see all that stuff on a torrent tracker anyhow... So it would be sorta useless covering more than the major releases.
    This would kind of tie in to the reviews of new series. Unless somebody seriously took on himself a tedious job of keeping an eye on all new releases and subber changes. Of course major changes in shows like Bleach or Naruto would be regular news, I think.

    Featured Fansub group of the month: This would be different from the Anime Review of the Week. Every month someone (whichever brave soul volunteers for it, or whoever got Krb's old job) picks a fansub group and does a little writeup on them. Who are their people, what they cover, some factoids about them. Personal reaction to the quality of their work.
    This would indeed be great, if a person willing and capable of doing it could be found. With so many subber groups around I doubt anybody could know 'em all, but it would be a good start if the person doing this would know at least something.

    A weekly/daily poll: "What did you think of this week's Naruto? Sucked, Ok, Above average, Incredible, Didn't watch. Or stuff like "who is your favorite Gundam protagonist of all time".
    Standard but nice and fun website fare.

    Blog style reactions to specific episodes, to accompany/follow some anime releases. I personally have mixed feelings on this one. A funny/high quality critique of episodes, especially pivotal episodes would be a great IMO. On the other hand, nobody likes reading a spoiler in some wackjob's blog.

That'd be alittle hard, but I think it's the right fit.
    Honestly I don't see how this could work in practice. The forum episode discussion threads are pretty much for this purpose, in the end.

    Nice suggestions, altogether. I have to confess I'm personally more of the forum visitor type of people than front page reader, so I can't say how important a really active main site would be for me, in the end.

    You need to be logged in to use that feature. Even then its quite over complexed.
    2 MB is not enough. Is this going to change?



    Login Resolved
    -----------------

    Case sensitive thing didnt work. So I created a new account with the same name and password from the forum and bingo I am in.

    Now I can surf between the main page and the forum flawlessly.

    I'm facing the same problem as XanBcoo even though I've already logged in. I'm able to leave a comment, but the gallery still views me as a guest.

    You and Psyke are both in the db as users in the gallery, check if you have cookies enabled etc.
