This is the basic problem, what the koffice pages need (and all other kde websites, IMO
but the koffice are my main concern) is a good designer.

Creating HTML is something most of us can do, but I have seen no-one who can design
a good website that looks professional and 'sells' koffice.
I think that a good graphics web-design is very hard, and have seen many graphics 
bureas fail trying.

If someone has a (girl)friend who is good in photoshop and knows what can and can not
be done in html, please give it a try!

As a kickstart I created a logo some time ago, it got a mixed-welcome; but feel free
to use it how you see fit.

After a design has been drawn I am sure some techincal people will be able to 
convert that to a nice html website, maybe with all sorts of neat stuff like 
javascript/database access etc.

In short I think we really need a creative person now.

No commision/group/whatever is going to fix that lack of talent.

The only thing worse than failure is the fear of trying something new
