Right now documentation is external. Maybe documentation can be copied to gentool.net entirely. Stretch goal. I could do the content part if the page is ready to be fed. Would need it's own page because documentation is very large.
As for layout, scrolling style with section buttons at the top looks good. The static section background images do not feel right. It looks as if they should also do something when scrolling. I am not sure.
As for content style, we can keep the playful game references like "I'm hungry", "I will obey", but we should not use references to player nicknames.
As for colors, would it be possible to use a similar color palette, so a new design does not look all that new and still familiar to long time website visitors?
As for logo, we need to use the Orange Yellow GenTool logo because it is used everywhere like that and users easily recognize it. The logo does not look really professional, but it has been like this for 10 years so we can keep it.
