New, new homepage!

[guru]

OK, Just call me captain slack but after an age of staring at a very plain text 'emergency' homepage I've finally managed to find some time to fix it, and I think it looks better then ever!

This post is a call for idea's opinions and more importantly photo's! As you may notice the scrolling photo banner at the top is a major part of the page so we need some crackers to really show the rest of the world what a great car the 800 really is. Therefore if you have any really good high resolution pics then I'll use them to replace the ad-hoc assortment that I grabbed just to get the page going. I will need hi-res copies to crop down so either post them here or pm me and I'll give you an e-mail address to send them to.
I'd also like to create a few information pages so if you have an article you'd like to write an article please reply here and I'll arrange it.

Anyway have a look at http://rover800.info and let me know what you think!

I'm liking the new home page, the rotating banner is a great feature too.

Perhaps some of the guides that have been written on repairing certain parts of these cars might make it onto the main site, I am about to do a full service on my car so I could always get the camera out and write a 'how to suck eggs' guide to servicing your 820 if you like.

If you pm me your email address I'm sure I will have some nice images of my car that you can use.

It's looking good though.

How about an age related gallery? in two sections covering all years and models with pics if possible.
(take a peek at the metro owners club home page to see what I mean)
If a specific model is owned by a member of the forum, it could be linked to their "your Rover" thread?

Mk1's
Mk2's
etc

Looks good - now, let's all come up with ideas to make it even better.

Skip the "are you sure you absolutely decided to press the log out button and not just made an error of sorts".

Looking good!! here is my suggestion, could we have a copy of the link's added to the bottom of the pages so you don't have to scroll back up to move between thread/boards etc. Also maybe pages dedicated to the various models as mgmal is suggesting like 820 827 T series that sort of thing.
also a dedicated gallery so members can post up pics of their cars.

keep up the good work homepage is now a new icon on my fav bar

Gallery +1

Copy the History section from the forum to the homepage so visitors can read a nice history of the various models (bit like ARonline but no quite so in depth!)

My only thought is the colour, white background with blue text - then you go to a blue background on black text on the forum. Perhaps match one to 'tother in either way?
