1. The home page does not look nice yet :( I don't know how to make it 
better ... maybe one link is enough that is about? I think we need to 
take a look at different websites and learn from others how they do 
their things? I want it to be simple and short yet beautiful. I see no 
reason why for example the logo should be on the left not the middle? 
also the 'Welcome' message is huge. Maybe we should remove it?

2- Community page: the name of the members + their avatars is okay to be 
in the middle but not the text as it is not consistent with other pages. 
All pages should follow the same pattern ;)

3- Join Us page: Who are we text "take a look ..." should be aligned to 
left instead of middle :D

4- Contact Us page: looks better and Ii like the left bar for the social 
media but the problem when I check it on my mobile, it does not scroll 
down and G+ button will be missing. On the browser, it is okay. Maybe if 
it gets smaller a bit and does not move with scroll?

Also: "For Development" instead of "Dev" :D


I guess that is all for now ...
