I agreee, refreshing design! I'd focus as well on trying to develop a sharing segment, similar to the newsfeed of the entire community, where people can browse whats being shared. Also, just a thought, the awesome background in the beginning could be switched to an image rotator of pics uploaded by users with a public setting.. And a bottom part with most active public discussions or shares.. Sort of whats trending in the community? It would help the users visitings knowing why they should sign up, or at least me:) Did you do this just for fun or is there a specific issue you want to solve? Suerte.

Gracias! And very interesting ideas (thank you for them! I like way you think.) -- I definitely need to make it more active mainly for new users since it's still very small for a social network (675 users and counting... almost 3 days in though!) and it can seem a little quiet at first. Well, to be honest I got inspired to make this when Facebook started with the changes... I don't want to put in a cliche phrase about being the next big thing, but I just saw a lot of my friends and the general public pissed off and hating Facebooks changes, which led me to think you know what might as well really test my skills and see what I can do. I attempted a social network before myself (this is my second attempt) but that was about a year ago and It's stupid how much I've learned since then.
hey, send me an email to yurij.gabassi at gmail, love to bounce a few more ideas with you.
