How bout a quick link for new users?

I have limited time for this. Where are the intro puzzles? Where is a basic search capability? The interface is pretty lacking in basic navigation capabilities.

Thanks,

Hmm, there really should be something on the homepage that points directly to this, or straight to the download. There used to be a download link there but it seems to have disappeared now. I had a quick look around myself as if I wanted to reinstall Foldit and the forum is not the obvious place to go and look for a download link.

Maybe you could put a "Get Started" link in there somewhere.

No, I have nothing above 'Recommend Foldit' except the top links to the Forum, Feedback, Blog etc. that's why I mentioned putting a link there again. Just tried with firefox as well and it's exactly the same.

I don't see anything above except for the same things Mark is seeing. I had to spend far too much time, and eventually had to use google search to find a forumn entry, to download it. I've been recommending it to people, but gotten a few facebook emails asking how they are supposed to do anything. There needs to be a big prominent link, up at the top, or right in the middle that takes you to somewhere to download it. Otherwise people aren't going to spend the time I did to find it.

I am so sorry that we didn't notice this!
It should be fixed now, please let us know if you ever notice that disappear again!
