Hi Denis, Kseniya Thank you for leading the effort in designing and revamping the website.
I wanted to share a few thoughts and ideas: 1. Will it be suitable if the rocket exhaust fire/gases are replaced with the Ignite spark from the Ignite logo. I really like the red Ignite spark. It may symbolize that the rocket's journey is powered / fueled by Ignite. 2. Can we rewrite the sentence "We appreciate any help and track every contribution" to "We appreciate any help and value every contribution". The word track felt a bit intrusive like if the user's actions are monitored. 3. Similarly here we may replace the word track "Top contributors are tracked at Github" to "Top contributors @ Github". 4. If it is ok with PMC members and committers then we can use face shots for committers and PMC members like here https://kafka.apache.org/committers. It will be nice to see a face and recognize them in person when we all meet again in person.
