My thought for the homepage is exactly that - organised vertically as someone suggested earlier.
A large section at the top of the page going right across dedicated to sales, below that some news (but smaller and neater than we have now), below that some game database links and at the bottom the community stuff. Each section will be clearly seperated with a nice big link to their dedicated pages which serve as a mini-homepage for just that section - these would be gamedb.vgchartz.com, news.vgchartz.com etc. By branding each seperately I was thinking something like "VGChartz GameDB" or whatever - so still obviously part of VGC but with a unique identity... |
Thank you! I'm quite happy with this, I was still not sure whether you were considering completely separating the parts of the site from VGC, but I see that that's not the case.
As someone else said, it's important to emphazise what is unique to VGC, the sales, the prediction league, etc.
If it's possible, maybe expand on the editorials n'stuff? Bring back roundtables, maybe invite some members in.
And for naming, for the database, I'd maybe take a leaf out of the IMDB book and call it VGDB or something. And might I suggest we take another feature from IMDB, and maybe include info like voice actors in the DB?

I didn't get a chance to read the entire thread, I'll do that when I get the chance.
I really like that idea aswell, instead of putting so much in the front page, just put sales as a big part of the front page then the rest like you said news and games can have there own seperate page.
