It's real purty! And there's finally a direct link to the downloads area on the main page. I used to have trouble finding it: it took a bit of browsing to locate where to download MX from. The site should be a lot more user-friendly now.

"The preferred method of installing packages is by adding these repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list file"
^--- outdated info, invites confusion.
Nowadays, we have /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
antix.list debian.list debian-stable-updates.list mx.list various.list

"Translation — MX tools, documentation — post on the Translation Forum"
Each of the other items in the list is actionable. Suggestion: revise this to provide a clickable link to Translation Forum or other relevant destination

MX Tools screenshot does not match the current as-shipped version
e.g., the "Live" section portrayed in the screenshot lacks items "Live-usb kernel updater" and "remasterCC"

Bluesguy, the MX Blog is there. Click on the News link in the top menu. (Unless I'm missing something and there's another MX blog someplace that you're talking about.)

Jerry3904, I found some other wee wee moles:
1. In the Terms of Use page it says fair use. It should be fair use (you missed the "e" when selecting text to be red. I do that all the time too.)
2. In the Reviews page under "MX-18 | MX Linux 18 Continuum basée sur Debian – Bureau XFCE" it says "This ia a complete distribution". Should be "is a".

These are very minor things but as long as you're still tweaking things anyway you may as well fix them too. It'll make the website look that much more polished and professional and will give readers a better overall impression of MX Linux than if the website contains some typos. :smile:

It looked OK after the edit, but I probably forgot to publish it.
