    Default Welcome message to guests

    First off; I think that the guest message should be improved explaining a bit more about OS, making guests a bit more comfortable creating an account. Giving them some more reasurence that OS is the greatest site out there, and that it is well worth spending 5 minutes creating an account.
    This might seem a bit trivial, but I honestly believe that the fact that you need an account in other to view anime scares away lots of people.. So writing a nice guest message might really make a difference.
    Perhaps I need to specify what I mean by the guest message, I talk about what is called "guest note" on the front page.

    Secondly I thought why not make the guest welcomming message in different languages? OS all ready have the flag counter that registers from which countries people are entering the site.
    So if I enter the site from Denmark I get a Danish version of the welcomming message or if someone enters the site from the Philippines you'd get a welcome in Filipino. I don't know if this idea can even be done, but it might be a nice and pretty unique feat for an anime streaming site.
    I'm sure that lots of people on OS would like help translate the guest welcome message to their own language.. at least I know I would :)

    Hopefully this could all help to expanding the OS community

    Hmm, I like your multi-lingual welcome message suggestion. Still meditating on what I need to put in the welcome message note.

    Actually Jade - Chiva has a new pic he wants to put up and was trying to pick brains on what to put on the welcome message. Your multiligual thingy sounds good, but will have to figure out how to make it so that you only see your own language or the welcome msg wud take up the whole page
