Now that would be Tronic (he wrote the pages on the current homepage 
afaik), but I would like to volunteer for webpage creation and (to a 
certain extent, since every member should be able to post news etc, that 
shouldn't have to rely on one person), as I've already created a page, 
that has been voted as "good" by most of the members, and outsiders as 
well (except for robux4). Maybe we could put up a vote who should do 
this ;).

Yeah, and even though he already does so much, he also wants to do 
homepage creation (!).

That has more than my vote, it has my double vote! :D :D (my idea anyway 
;) )
