Sorry for negative (and maybe discouraging) feedback. I would not mind 
if you just skip my complains since I am not a contributor to org-mode.

Concerning the screenshot, when first impression, that everything is 
broken and do not worth reading at all, is over, in my opinion, the text 
makes much more sense than "innovative" marketing stuff got priority on 
the demo of the new design. I consider the list of tasks, that org mode 
could help with, is the most important thing to attract new users. It 
should just be properly formatted.

It seems that new variant is too mobile-centric. On a 24in monitor I 
expect something more than just a banner. There is plenty of room for 
brief news related to new releases, for more details of most important
features (on the other hand I am against arbitrary scaled screenshots 
with excessively huge characters in comparison to surrounded text), etc. 
I am aware that my taste is against of modern design trends.

A couple of remarks unrelated to new look but should be addressed in the 
case of rework.

I am surprised that Emacs is explicitly mentioned only in html head 
title. The relation should be clear for new visitors.

As to installation, I believe that org-mode bundled with Emacs is more 
than enough for first try. It is a shorter path to become familiar
with most prominent features just to start editing of an .org file (or 
to download a prepared demo .org). Getting the latest stable version
could be a next step for the hooked users.
