shvarz:
I was thinking about a general approach to the web-site...
Most of action happens in forum, most of help and descriptions will be in the wiki.  So what should the website do?  I think we need to organize it in a way to draw new people in.  The very first page should address newcomers and in a fun and easy-going way introduce DBs to them.  

Does that make sense?

Numsgil:
Yes, my thoughts too.  It should be interesting enough to keep their attention and provide basic darwinbots information.

Mutate This!:
If the webspace you bought has PHP-support, why not make the webpage a wiki?
The main areas could only be edited by the runners of the website.

Then there could be a help section (or maybe it should be called wiki section) to which "guests" are free to type their stuff.

Wiki of this type ought to have a website look/feel, rather than that of a wiki.

Hope you understood what I was trying to explain :). The decentralized website you're creating wouldn't be really practical, it'd be great to find a wiki with forums, but I suppose separate forums and website could be manageable with such a small community.

MightyPenguin:
Wait a second. If we have webspace, what the hell are we doing on an invision board? Let's blow this joint and throw some phpBB up.

Numsgil:
We could but it's such a pain to up and relocate.  This board and the wiki are just fine.  If you want an easy to remember URL, try typing forum.darwinbots.com and see what happens ;).
