Talk:Main Page/What happened?/reply (2)

There was some serious filth in the code, a lot of the layout was poorly formatted and not consistent with the design, and a lot of the code was related to now-absent translation features of the wiki, and the images were eating a ton of bandwidth and did not work on non-huge screen resolutions or mobile devices. And the news sections were duplicating a lot of info that is better found elsewhere (Ludeon blog).

I very much hope someone will take a shot at jazzing up the front page a tab - in a way that won't murder our bandwidth, works well on all devices, and doesn't duplicate constantly-changing info that belongs on the blog. Please go to it if you're willing to do so! I agree it looks a bit bland now but we need a design that works well on logical and technical levels and doesn't just look pretty. Simple and tasteful are good.
