New news-feed style view of all the latest uploads, comments reviews on the site:

Also, everybody has an avatar now - it's your public Facebook profile pic if you log in that way, or it comes from Gravatar (http://gravatar.com) if we have an email address for you.

I'll implement a way to manually upload a profile picture soon.

Nice! I uploaded my avatar in gravatar immediately. Is it possible to add gravatar to the forum, too?

The start page is a bit long now. What do you think about decreasing the top rated games from 18 to 12?

It sounds like phpBB will be adding Gravatar support in the next release: http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic ... 5&start=10

Not sure a long home page is that much of a problem but I will consider tweaking it.

Looks good! I think it would be neat if the most recent activity was displayed as a single line across the top of the site, like a headline. When you click on it you go to the /activity page. The tiles for the games could be shrunk a bit vertically as well IMO.

So, if I enter m email into gravatar I can get a forum avatar?

Forum avatars are separate (the forums are entirely separate from the main site). You can set your forum avatar from your user profile.
