Right.. Now that the name is on its way to being registered, I'm starting
to think more and more about the design. Choosing a font is tough, and I
know some might give me flak for being so worried about astethics, but I
want this site to be well made to reflect the community as a whole. I can
also stick this in a portfolio ;)

Correct, as soon as I get the feel buttoned down (hopefully today), I'll

a work in progress and coming soon.

Good point. It can be the temporary home of several documents before they
are fully integrated into the site.
Keep Building!!
