I would love to see a redesign of adom.de. It's probably important for this push to make the game more popular too. If anyone googles for ADOM and ends up there they might think it's a project that hasn't been changed much since 1995. Whereas if you go to ancientdomainsofmystery.com, the artwork there is freaking gorgeous, and there's no question of its recent-ness. (For those young ones for whom recent-ness is an important gauge of cool-ness.) :)

Right now we are collecting ideas for www.adom.de. My basic idea is to have one central portal page in a modern design/layout with a video, a little bit of awesome parallax scrolling graphics, a short overview about the main arguments in favor of ADOM and good social media integration.

Ok, doesn't sound too special for nowadays but for ADOM it would be a big step ;-)

The new website is live. See http://www.adom.de for details and let us know your feedback.

This looks pretty damn good, I like the apparent three dimensionality with the tiles screenshots appearing as you scroll down.
The old version had simplicity but I'm glad that the crucial part of it has been retained in the new site - instant links to downloads, forum and blog.
I like the summary part with all the various ways to die (crushed to death by luggage should be there though), and variations of playstyles.

Good job Team Adom ;)

Good work, indeed. My initial reaction when a site changes its design is always automatically negative :) But trying to be objective, this one is good-looking and easy to navigate. And I'm happy to see the old site (/adom/index.php3) is still available. The information on it, especially the old RFE and bug database, remains relevant.

I love it as well. Very fancy looking, but at the same time, usable. I don't have anything negative to say, great website :)

Wow, that's one beautiful page. Very nice.
I think the big 'under-the-page' screenshot should be a dungeon scene. IMHO those look more impressive. But that's my only (minor) niggle.

Done. New files need to be uploaded before changes are visible.
