Does anyone have a copy of the old home page from early 2005? They had a picture of a woman, half of her face was her RL photo and the opposite half was her avatar's face (which matched almost exactly), and it was just so well done. I wouldn't mind seeing something like that back up on the home page again.



There's one showing the context of the page as well. :) Thank you, EggyWiki.

Why is Aimee not on the front page!!!! :mad:

She is the spokesmodel "face" of SL, and I think this is a serious oversight on LL's part.

IN fact, I quit!

And why is there a gun on it???

And why isn't there a build on it? And why aren't I on it? And why does it look like City of Heros rather than SL??

But all in all, it's not bad. :o

I love the fact that the map is gone; the page was clean and it was easy to quickly see everything. All good changes.

But...

While showing a furry and a robot with three humans is a nice start to capture the diversity in SL, why were all the humans white?

There is a lot more to SL than being a furry, a robot or a white club hoping sex pot.

Thanks Nyx and Flip! That's the one...I was really struck by that image when I first joined because it really conveyed how limitless SL can be.

that is pretty clever, I think that would draw me in faster than any of the others I've seen...
and I personally don't like the banner of sl.. the guy with the eye think freaks me out.. and the girl with the green hair, well she's scarey too..

I think the new home page pic is awesome - its apeal is strong (esp towards women).
Its funny how its being picked apart here..lol!
Its a far cry better than the map and alot more inticing to new players to come onboard the SL grid.

I agree - wtf is Aimee... if for no other reason that it will give Prok(tology) something to write about for the next 8 months...

I mean I miss the 'all roads lead to Aimee's panties' conspiracy theories...... The new ones suck.

Personally I'd like to see a cow exploding on the front page - not because it says anything about SL, just that exploding cows are cool.
