    The new site seems to be quite modern, sophisticated and clean, it's quite cool and the main page looks fantastic, even though I don't like localization in pages it felt nice to see the site appear in Spanish and being able to change to other languages with ease, nice job.

    I really miss a lot the original old site (the one when visionaire 2 was out, the orange one) since it felt vintage or old school, kind of in line with classic adventure games and it was a fun place to visit, so is nice to see the new site taking a tiny step in that direction but making it clean, modernized and to the point, the previous site was lacking a lot on the visuals.

    A couple of bugs on the main page:
    .-I noted the boxes that say "Easy", "Sophisticated", "Powerful" at the beginning have cropped texts in both English and Spanish.
    .-The price of the "Team License" is out of the circle, and the mobile and education ones are not centered like the single and distribution ones.

    Going forward, It put me off a bit to reach the "blog" and read most of it in German even if you had English or Spanish languages selected, I'm not an English native speaker but I think you should post the blog in English so it's more of a universal language. It feels like you guys are alienating most everyone, at least all America and most of Europe have a basic understanding of English but don't know a word of German, (by the way, America is not USA and Canada, over half the continent speak Spanish or Portuguese). So you should prioritize a global language, every other engine does it, why aren't you?.

    The Wiki didn't seem to be connected visually to Visionaire, since you are working on branding the main page, are you going to integrate or make the Wiki look more like the main page?.

    Overall I had a very good impression on the new site, I can't wait to see the development on the engine improve as well wink.

    Just noted that the Mail icon on top, even if the page is set to English it displays the description in German, and right before the posting member names in the forum there is a "von" word (does it mean "by"?)... you guys really need to work on globalization haha.

    Thank you very much Glen. smile I'm glad that you like the new page. Some things are still in development or will be fixed in the next days.
    The Wiki didn't seem to be connected visually to Visionaire, since you are working on branding the main page, are you going to integrate or make the Wiki look more like the main page?
    I really want to change this with our new "manual" area that is already available in the german area. This manual will include everything a manual needs and can also include videos. Also those manuals can be exported as pdf or ebook. 

    See here:

    Found some other stuff in the header:

    German "News", English "Blog" ...leads to "Community Blog": A bit inconsistent. 
    Also the order of the items in the Header switches its places  from language to language

    Neat that you inverted the color of the bar (to top/page 1,2,3,...) which appears when scrolling down, but why is it wider than the normal content?  smile

    All of this is still in development and we still need to find the perfect solution for this. wink

    There is a new blog post from yesterday for example from a german student who just released his new GERMAN Visionaire Studio Game. Since this game is in german and there won't be an english translation, it would be a little strange if he would have to write the news in english to promote a german game. Doesn't seem to make much sense. 

    So maybe we could need language filters in the blog. Any other ideas?

    language filter for news/blog could be selectable by each user then (in account settings or at the blog site directly). For official posts like Update notifications or general news you guys from the VS team should be able to have language independent posts which get displayed anyway (to prevent you guys from posting news for each language separatly and having multilple news (and comments) for the same topic but on different places... These news should be in english though. 

    Another idea would be to have the possibility to enter a text for each language when creating a blog post and having english as the default case if the current user language (other than english) has no text.
