The face on the DNF landing page... enough!

I don't mean to be mean but is it just me who finds that guy on the DNF landing page a little annoying by now? At first, it was no problem whatsover, just a cool landing page. But now it's just the same dude smiling at me every single time I come to DNF. He's giving me the creeps.

Edit: Oops, I think this post was misplaced. Probably belongs in the Suggestions forum.

I don't know... perhaps I'm just tired and annoyed and he got in my way at the wrong time. Maybe I'll feel differently tomorrow.

Haha! Yes, looking at it again, it does look pretty weird. I still vote for Adam Dicker to be put on there!

I definitely liked it better when Adam's face was on it after all he is the boss.

It's obvious that it's a stock photo and looks pretty cheap. The landing page also makes DNF look cheap, at least that's my impression. To be honest, I don't think the landing page will help add value to the DNForum brand.

I always go directly to the forum page so I don't have to look at the ugly landing page.

I somewhat agree and don't like the fact that some options forward you back there once your in the forum already. Let's see if we can get it changed.....

I don't understand the reasoning behind the splash, but just bookmark the forum itself and you won't have to see it again.

suggestion:

any chance dnf.com can be redirected to the forum
as the regulars, 90% of forum want this section and nothing else

and the landing page is just taking time out the day

gives us a direct naivigation tool lol to get here quicker.
also we dont have to look at groucho marx and his stuck on eyebrows lol
