I think we should have a competition just to choose a designer who will do the final version in cooperation with devs. Most professionals won't like to put weeks of work into something that might not be used eventually - even if they would work on the ryzom hp for free. So i'm suggesting a competition where everyone can submit a few websites they designed (for different purposes) and maybe add some concept artwork for a new ryzom hp. The winner gets the job and maybe a nice reward if the result is nice.
The forums and wiki is a different story. They need to work both in WebIG browser and regular browsers. The WebIG browser has a very limited feature set comparable to maybe IE5 or netscape navigator 3 (no, not firefox 3) without script support and css. And the result should somewhat taste good if it is served as a side dish to the game client.
Two different templates might do the trick, but i don't know how much work would be involved on the webserver side (most likely no template support at all at the moment).
