jeez xD I could care less for the website completely! The forum is where the action is at, and I just want a link to download 3DGS executable... If people spend more time making games, and not giving a crap about the F-ing webpage, maybe that good looking content would've been there years ago! C'mon people... Just make games, that's what we're here for. And on that note talking about contests. Just make the next contest a game creation contest yet again 9like the last one) atleast that'll get some more entries... I wanna bet the current contest grasps too high for most users here anyway, probably the total amount of submitted Tools will be half the previous contest submissions... Also, making games is just plain more fun in general ;D thanks for reading my rant regards,

After all, the majority of forum users are game developers, not web designers. true,BUT: 3DGS is a professional and Advanced Engine ,besides A8 is coming out soon,I mean take a look at other competitors Engine's websites like UNITY or Torque,they showing the best of thier Engines:great models,great levels,amazing screen shots,Etc... you should consider using some Advanced screenshots in the main webpage instead of using user's screenshots. I could care less for the website completely! The forum is where the action is at, and I just want a link to download 3DGS executable... well,that's because you already familiar with 3DGS. think of others who doesn't know any thing about 3DGS, let's say some one heard about 3dgs,and he/she wanted to try it,but first he/she would like to see some screenshots or the engine in action,he/she will be disappointed if he/she saw the 3DGS main webpage!,especially if he/she already saw other competitors engine's webpage, the first time i saw 3dgs's website i thought it for KIDS!!!

Ok, ok - you convinced me. We'll do a new website, new screenshots, and remove/replace the very old models and artwork.
A contest could also be a good idea. But would we get many good contributions to this contest? After all, the majority of forum users are game developers, not web designers. It could be contest with money prize, this could drive other not-from-this-community web developers in to the contest.

Hm... the guys over at DexSoft create awesome models and textures in high quality - maybe hire them for creating new standard 3DGS content?

Yeah, a new website is not a "can" it is a "must". It looks horrible if you compare to Unitys site: Dark, simple, full of text, no animations.
But I love 3DGS

Just wanted to notice that the "new" A8-logo and the "overworked" homepage still needs a redesign... Even the super-old Acknex Unlimited is untouched. Other engine websites have got advanced file archives or even own stores for tools and user-generated artwork... I mean A8 is a great engine. I don`t think that you guys have got anything to hide. It would have been a chance for a great comeback.. Do you still plan to design a new webpage? A relaunch with more possibilites for the community?
