Dnforum.com - The place to buy, sell and talk domains!

The home page should be simalar to:

http://www.sony.com/index.php

One main image related to domains, a main button that says 'Enter Domain Name Forum'

4 squares at the bottom left to right they are:

Getting Started
Downloads and Tools
Articles and Ebooks
Marketplace

This page will go in front of the forum page and become the new index page.
The point of this new front page is handle the flow of new users that want to get involved in domains and need some information before they go directly to the forum.

I will rework the columns after the design is selected.

- A really strong design focusing in on dnforum.com.
- Something that shows me right away I am at a professional site
- Something that shows me the site is definitely about domain names and it is a forum.
- Something that tells people membership has its privelges and this site is worth $60 for a lifetime membership.
