I will be working on getting the site and blog up and running over the next week. I've started working on the front page last night: xlengine.com. Anyway let me know what you think so far and whatever suggestions that you have.

I think images should be clickable and lead either just to bigger versions or appropriate game page. Also, maybe images should be grouped by making border around them and little title of group by game they represent?

For layout - maybe text(and just a little bigger) on the left and images on the right instead of topping them?

Some food for thought, thanks. :)

Maybe a download link for each would be nice, too. ;) :oops:

I've been updating the main site, adding downloads, and engine section, a section that shows the games and where they are in development. Check it out and give your feedback.

Using FF 4.0 @ W7x64 I get that strange scrollbar on engine page. There is something wrong with css(or FF4 :? ).

Btw, using img tag with wide image stretches board, but in preview mode it's resized to fit. I switched to simg tag.

On the engine page there is an asterisk with no corresponding footnote. It's driving me crazy!
