Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's just adding fuel to the fire of those who are concerned SL is becoming more like There to post a picture of a guy on a hoverboard on the new homepage?

:D

1.2 IS rather There-like, eh? And Lyra's quote has a typo in it! There's SOMETHINGTO?

With 1.1, we got that crazy new intro picture with all the people on boards and whatnot just Jumpin out at ya.

Yeehaw.

Waaaay too much like There and was removed with the very next release I believe and replaced with the standard sunset picture we originally had.

Why oh why would you repeat this mistake on the homepage. I think we can tell by the lack of use of the vehicle sims that pushing the boarding/vehicle aspect of SL is just not good marketing.

Why not have a goergeous build or a massive group of people together on the homepage? Something more representative of what SL is.

People! Sometimes a cigar is only a cigar. Besides, the av and the hoverboard looks much cooler than anything in There.:D

Of COURSE they do, Teeny! I was just ribbing LL about the odd choice, not bitching in actuality.
