Website and GUI.

Yes. I don't expect that a dozen people will have a hand in the final implementation of the site, as that'd probably just too difficult where keeping everything consistant is concerned.

But, for now, I'd like to see that everyone's who's interested propose their ideas publicly so that we all may get an idea of what we can do with the site. We can all learn from one another if we all share our ideas about what colors and typeface we use, or what logo we might need.

Any ideas about things like that are really appreciated. They don't need to be the finished product, either. Sketches done with anything will work, as well.

Also, what the crap do you mean by a GUI? Websites are a GUI... but that's called the layout. Something.

Well, I suppose you're right. I guess I just meant that, since there's a lot more to this project than a pretty looking splash page, I'm really intent on seeing that its navigation is easy to use and consistent. I'd also like to be sure that all of the information that could become available is easy to access by our users.
