Maybe spruce up the website with a new color scheme and layout, just something different for the new year.
I enjoy seeing all the new upcoming movies that Gina's going to be in. Maybe you could have a listing for each movie with the appropriate interviews and photos and links for each one.

I enjoy the site very much, especially chatting with everyone. Keep up the good work, P0d!  :D

The site could probably be totally redesigned, made a little brighter. And the forum could be more up front so it gets used more.

The navigation graphics could do with some tidying up alright... and currently the page is a bit of a resource-hog.  I'm still grateful for it!

Instagram feed for sure and yeah the ability embed videos would be great. Should be a lot easier to do than a redesign of the site.

I've been out of the loop for awhile, but was there some kind of technical reason why there hasn't been any news post since February? Most of the useful news information and photos these days are in the chatbox posted by fans and in the social media feeds.

Hi everyone.

The website definitely needs a make-over. In everything. We need to take back control on the site.

First, the look.
The current style is out dated & way too dark. We need something more artsy or design.
I don't know what is technically possible but if it's not possible to change the whole design at least new colors are mandatory.

Then, the content.
We need to update all the database. Pictures, videos, interviews, articles... That way we will be able to put a complete biography (not necessarily limited to her only) because the one out there is way too short. We need to do that if we want to be the 1st fan website of her. I know this is a very heavy job but if we work all together, very organised I'm sure we can do a fast & great job.

In the future, to put all of that into work and make it concrete,
I think we need to get Gina and/or her team involved.
It is necessary if we want to build a strong and constructive community.
That way, we will avoid any mistakes in communication & the website will be the way Gina wants it to be.
I think that it's only the way we want it right?

These are my thoughts for the website.
Hope to see it come to reality soon. I will be very happy to take part in such a movement as much as I can.

See ya!
