New P2Pool.org Launched.

The new information site p2pool.org is now live.

Please consider this a start, there is much more to come

The bulk of the content is in the "Learn & Participate" section.

I welcome any contributions, suggestions, feedback, found typos, etc...

Enjoy.

Nice!

One comment tho - the yellow on white is a little hard to read, not exactly very easy on the eyes. I'd either make the background a light grey or something to be able to better contrast the yellow, or change the yellow text to something with a little more contrast - dark grey, dark blue, etc.

Edit - OK, two comments...

The 3 areas you can go to from the main "learn and participate" page - when you follow the links, I don't think they're very intuitive on how to navigate. The "X" at the top right doesn't really stand out as the way to get back to where you were. If you don't see that (I didn't really notice it on my first try), and you hit back in your browser, it doesn't take you back to the main p2pool.org page, it goes to your last absolute browser page, which for me in chrome is my start page.

I would make a suggestion to either 1) carry the main p2ool page header onto those pages as well so you can easily go back to any of the others or 2) make the page a true "pop-out" or "floater" page where it is or looks like it's in its own box, with the "x" displayed in the top right corner of the box in a bubble (like you see on many other sites) so you can close out that page and return to the main page you were previously looking at. Or, maybe to start you could move the yellow "nav button bar" from the bottom of the page, and put that in place of that large "X" in the top right. At least people will see that immediately and then can clik on that, rather than have to scroll down to see it, it might not be normally displayed unless you're on an uber-large resolution setting.

Edit #2 - Ok, one more comment... Wink

The main page, at the bottom, you have a spot for a sponsored advertisement. Depending on the size of the browser window it gets cut off at the bottom and you can't see the whole area. I'm at 1900x1200 and my browser window is usually somewhere around 1400x900 resolution size, so decently large, but not full screen. You have to scroll down to see it all, so if you really want that space to be useful I think you're going to have to float it somewhere in the main image area, or maybe make it a top- or side-mounted ad space bar.

I think I'm done now... really... I hope....

Thanks for all the feedback

I plan to make individual pages for the 4 parts of Learn and Participate section, the modals were an attempt to keep it all on 1 page for ease of maintenance, but I agree with you and think they need to be on individual pages...

I'll play around with the link coloring.

I tried (maybe to hard) to keep the ad unobtrusive, I'll revisit its location as the site grows...
