Hi guys,
a week ago or so, I red that the new website is in the making.
Now I thought that I may share my humble opinion (not requesting anything) on crypto-websites in general.
Most of them contain a lot of blah-blah and fancy pictures, saying basically nothing... eye candy without any value.
In order to stand out from all those fancy ICO presentations, I would personally love to see an extremely simple and clean website, sparing out all the useless eye-candy.

(Like years ago, Google was the search engine with the simplest design - no eye-candy, nothing that distracted the user...)

What's your (@all Elastic fans) opinion on that matter?

Content is important obviously, but visuals too.
These 2 websites have nice balance imo, don't they?
https://xel.org
https://xeline.org

(This one http://elastic.pw/ looks abandoned, and just forwards to xel.org hub.)

As far as I understand, xeline.org is more like a fan page. Not the official web site.
It's a very nice fan page but for the official web site, for my taste, it would be better not to use blue text on dark blue background and not to put a big generic picture that says nothing on the first page.

I didn't know about xel.org up until now, but there are to many bright colors for my taste (it hurts my eyes).
It's only my personal taste, but I like very simple designs without (or, at least, less aggressive) colors. I think that a more "scientific" style would also fit perfectly to the Elastic project.

I am aware that this is merely a matter of taste. Therefore more opinions would be great  Wink
