<strong>General feeling</strong> is that front page must be light, much lighter than it is now and what it is in early preview. And I don't mean color only. It should be light, not heavy. The front page preview is full of heavy boxes. Let's not go this way.
And the new color palette should be revised or simplified. Simple, web compliant colors, flat graphics, responsive design.
<strong>Regarding the structure</strong> it must be clear and concise. Instead of Home, What is INDI, Research, Industry, Individuals, Support, Get INDI , I would go for (order matters):
Home
About [What is INDI, Features, Blog]
Use [KStars & Ekos, Compatible software, Supported devices, ...]
Develop [INDI API, Source code, Manual & Tutorials, Vendor Guidelines, ...]
Research [Articles, Projects, ...]
Community [Forum, INDI Wiki, ...]
Download [...]
Notes:
- Research / Articles & Research / Projects are in fact users' blogs tagged as article or project.
- For the sake of clarity we need to stop using terms like INDI clients etc.
All the best!

I can't change the dark aspect because was in project and it would take a long time to change the overall layout.
I also added the project section but there's actually nothing there, just because I need a specific article category for users' projects. There's the need to publish a section where users write their projects or experiences with INDI powered instrumentation, in Articles and Projects respectively.
