Hello everyone,

As many of you know, getmonero.org has been using the same design for quite some time now. While it's served us well, some community members have mentioned that the current look is starting to feel a bit dated & amateur.

The Monero Website work group is looking for some more community feedback to be discussed at the next meeting (feel free to join!).

Would you prefer to keep the current design, or should we consider refreshing it? We’ve received two alternative concepts by community members Diego and hammermann (linked below) and would love to get your feedback.

Please let us know your thoughts! What do you like about the current site? What would you change? If you prefer one of the new concepts, tell us why. Your input is invaluable as we move forward with making any potential changes.

Looking forward to hearing from everyone!

Links to the concepts:

  1. Redesign Concept - Diego
  2. Redesign Concept - hammermann

Thanks in advance! :)

Prefer Hammermann

No comparison, I like hammermann's the best. The only real criticism is that white text on black "burns my eyes" and is harder to read, so I'd much rather an off white font is used. The offwhite that's under the Monero coin on the side is about the right brightness. The only caution I'd give is that although the Roadmap is cool and both new and old users want to see it, it might be best to keep it off the front page since it's unlikely that it would be updated regularly and it might be easier to maintain on a different page (or offsite, e.g. github).

I like the hammermann concept the most,
it looks more professional then Diego's,
very clean and modern looking :)

I think we need to reach out to a less technical audience. Radicals and more underground communities already know about monero and what it is. But what would convince average Joe who has a slight interest on crypto? What could convince you if you are now a little bit more interested after that nerd friend told you about it?

Fast and low fee should be directly on the homepage, probably replacing something like the emphasis on decentralization.

Key points should be : Privacy, fast, inexpensive and sovereignty, all around the world. And how easy it is for the average user to have that like on hammermann's "discover monero" design.

I prefer hammermanns design. But would like to have a light Design instead of a dark one, with the option to switch to dark mode via (floating) button or by recognizing system settings of browser. (if this could be realized in a privacy focused way) I look at this from the perspective of a businessmen instead of programmer, and the western hemisphere where monero takes place the most recognize dark spaces as something bad or shady as persons before me already mentioned.

Diegos design is a very harsh downgrade compared to the active site. So, i would refuse it.
