@David,

I think changing the home page to a bit more slick and modern design might be a good move. I personally don't mind, I believe never judge a book by its cover, but some people do. Pictures of the cast, yourself, Echo, Brendan, an artistic home page design might be in order. When we log in, if we could go straight into our control panels that would be a plus. To be able to control every aspect of our experience here easilly and efficiently is always a plus. In other words, consolidate everything into an obvious and ergonomic whole in a single, “My Popup” area. There we can manage calendar, lessons, vocab, drills, HSK tests, handwriting practice,scores, messages, ect., all as a popout windows (just like the current review format).

Getting and recording our performance and rating it is paramount.

Separate the messages into their own area because I feel that they make the home page look cluttered.

Separate forum posts from lesson posts and allow us to select them via Tabbed browsing format.

Enable forum post replies to send us an email notification if we get a reply.

Set up an obvious area where we can scroll through lessons and by level.

Feel free to toot your own horn a bit on the home page, I'd be happy to write a positive review for you.

Metatag and write desriptions and write content for each lesson so the content is searchable by the Popup search engine as well as Google, this will help Popup show up a lot higher and in many more searches.

Make all written content on the site visible to Google, this would greatly increase search-ability of Popup.
