Pidgin Site Wireframes
Blend Interactive has generated a set of wireframes for the new site. Please have a look and make some comments here to help guide us in the right direction.
The purpose of the wireframe stage is to consider the structure and content of the site without any consideration for design; once we've reached some rough consensus on the contents, we can get the designers involved in creating the actual look and feel. At this point we're focusing on whre to put things, and why to put them there.
I've broken the wireframe document up into sections below, but here's the whole document if that's easier to read.
