I agree.. the page is hideous. I personally would never consider using this service. Two things I would recommend.. a) visit themeforest.net and buy a theme, apply it, and add lots of screenshots. Here's one I like from MojoThemes (not affiliate link, no affiliation at all) : http://www.mojo-themes.com/item/magnolia-a-responsive-html5-template/demo/ http://www.mojo-themes.com/item/magnolia-a-responsive-html5-... b) make it exclusive. People will pay more money to get into something if they think they can't. You can accomplish this if you limit the number of users by a certain date, or close it altogether, just like Google did with GMail. If you require an invite code, AND the site and offer are compelling, within hours of doing this you will see forum posts indexed in Google where people are asking for invites. Finally, post some invite codes on this site, and see what the uptake is. Good luck, I hope it works out for you!
