I'm not sure if this is the proper place to address concerns with Skulgirls' official website, but here goes. What I saw was buggy so why not put it with the other bugs?

I saw Flotilla has a nifty thread updating the FAQ section. Very helpful. This thread also seeks to help by highlighting website parts that are all fudged-up. If you see anything malfunctioning or should be changed on the website, or know a way to contact the proper people to fix things, please chime in.

I went looking to see if Beowulf was added to the site yet and found three glitchy pages:

MENU --> CHARACTERS
URL: http://skullgirls.com/characters/
Problem: hollow shell
Solution: Default link to first character Filia or have a landing page about all characters.

CHARACTERS --> BIG BAND and PAINWHEEL
URL: http://skullgirls.com/characters/big-band/
URL: http://skullgirls.com/characters/painwheel/
Problem: empty page, all menus vanished
Solution: restore menus, bio, and image

Other things I noticed...

MENU --> GAME
URL: http://skullgirls.com/game/
Problem: thin landing page
Solution: Instead of just "Game" in the content area, perhaps an outline of the four subcategories (Character Guides, Overviews, FAQ, World) to give the user incentive to browse. Or just redirect to the first sub page.

GAME --> CHARACTER GUIDES
URL: http://skullgirls.com/game/character-guides/
Problem: 3 links (Arcade, Xbox360, PlayStation 3) go nowhere / do nothing
Solution: Perhaps links to Shoryuken wiki for each character, and Steam Community guides? Maybe even GameFAQs? Or even some great threads here on Skullheart.
 
@render - I'm not sure who on Lab Zero to contact, but since you frequent here and the subreddit with nigh-omnipotent helpful information, I ask if you might know who it is, please toss a folding chair at whoever is in charge of the website.

They may be unaware that three pages are busted (characters, Big Band, Painwheel) and there's no Beowulf.

We're aware of the busted character pages, and we're working on getting Beo up there.

Thanks for the heads up. I am definitely the guy you want to contact, though. Good guess. :)
