I mostly like it, with one glaring exception: The auditorium photo. The instant I got to that, it stopped looking like a language homepage and started to feel like a site that was trying to sell me something.

Not one of the other language pages features a photo. I think might be a reason for that. I'm sure it's wonderful from a design perspective, but it's so far from what I expect from a technical page, I'd give up on the site on the spot if I were looking at it "for real".

Sorry, but it really is that bad.

Funny that a blurry stock photo changed your mind so fast. I wonder how you've been conditioned to respond that way.

Maybe something like "uh? yet another esoteric academic language? I don't have time for this"

The scala homepage prominently features a photo.
