Bleu is the man.. I just wish I had the skills to carry out the ideas in my head.

I think we need something that is going to make people remember the site not only for content, but because the design is fookin awesome.

Here is my vision.. I'm going to use MSPaint to illustrate, so if you don't like it, feck off. Maybe someone with more artistic skill than I can make this a reality.

You open with a brief (5 sec) flash animation which brings forth the central layout of the site. In the center is a spherical (3D) collage of military imagery which serves as the anchor for the page as well as the link to gf1.com content. Surrounding it a several smaller spheres (all 3D) with screenshots from the games or perhaps logos/boxart for simplified navigation. Something like this (these are obviously not the colors.. I'm just giving an idea of the layout):

(I suck at Paint as well)

Now, when you click on one of the outer spheres, the sphere would become animated and fly into the center sphere which would take on the outer sphere's image, do a brief loading bar inside that sphere, and then the sphere would shoot to the top lefthand corner and stay there when the content page opens. The only difference here would be if they clicked the center sphere (gf1.com content) all the outer spheres would fly into that center sphere which would shoot to the top left corner. Here is a very rough idea of how I envision the content page:

Anyway, that's my idea. If someone can make it happen, I think it's an awesome concept and you can take credit for it and everything. Werd.
