Welcome Notice Advice

[kingjavo]

I'm wondering if having a Welcome Message is worth the page space it occupies as it takes up almost 2/3's of the homepage's landscape. I'm also curious if the main Logo is too large because it takes up a good part of the page as well. If I make it smaller, then it will hide the background center further though.

I'd love to hear some opinions and advice on the best practice.

In my opinion, I think the welcome page isn't worth it because you have the login and Register tab right above it. But other than that it looks pretty nice.

Again, in my opinion, I like happy bright colors mostly so I think under the background should fade into a lighter color. But that's just me

You could always use a floating notice to achieve the same contents of that notice.

I'd love to know how to accomplish that!

I also think it would be better to put my main logo as the home button or smaller to bring up the content. Any pointers?
