What is your front page?

I have a forum, around 400-500 members, and growing.

Though I think what I need to do to get more people is to have content.

I don't have that much content, and my index page is just a flash intro leading to my forums.

So what do you guys use for the front pages? CMS systems? Html made page?

I use vBCMPS for my frontpage, easily integrated and customizable. I am debating using a wordpress blog type of frontpage though as well.

Our "news" articles using SMF's SSI.php features, it's pretty ugly and could do with a decent redesign but frankly, I can't be bothered.

I just redirect to my forums, it used to be a portal like page with my blog posts, latest forum topics, etc. After I switched, forum registrations increased noticeably.
