At the same time we can also emphasize the differences. Monero is mandatory private with no room for compromise. Aeon is optionally private - we can emphasize that optional zero-mixin transactions lets users choose the privacy setting that's right for them and their technical needs.
So with the optional privacy Aeon needs to have a certain volume of transactions in private mode or it will be vulnerable to some sort of topological analysis?

So long as my privacy is not compromised by your publicity, Aeon's ability to be either is fine.
But here is another great thing about AEON, so long as Smooth is not Fluffy -- there are no human loose ends.
ShadowCash, DASH (a.k.a. Amanda B. Johnson Coin), and even Monero, have fleshy squeeze points.
I can see no other coin.
Can you?

The website redesign and mock up looks really nice! Again, definitely don't mind that silly blurb going away - it was a couple of years ago and was just having fun. If the path forward for Aeon is to be a global protocol, it shouldn't need a "slick pitch".

But i don't think that we should completely ditch the specs of the coin, maybe just putting them somewhere else, like in the footer?
Doesn't have to be on the first page.
I'm not a fan of the "What's the difference" focus.
AEON is AEON. It isn't Monero reloaded.

A quick photoshop mock-up of my thoughts.
Ditched the entire header including the "Aeon is a lifestyle" speech as it's not really serving much purpose. Removing the dark background section and going straight to the white background certainly makes it look cleaner. (In my opinion).
I've also put the official logo in the top left, as the font that's currently there isn't quite the same as the rest of the branding.
I have to admit that I prefer your solution as well, going only with the white background. Aside from the design preference, I'd also suggest to go with white or lighter colors in order to avoid the association of AEON with anything obscure, unknown.

Website exist http://www.aeon.cash but is not that much used. It should be posted on more places so more people can reach it and visit it.
It has been linked from the OP for a while, and also on twitter. I saw on reddit that it was missing from the sidebar there, but it looks like that is fixed now. Where else?
Lol we should change up that quote I made all those years ago - at the time I was just having a bit of silly fun, but it really does sound like something that belongs more on vodka or a timeshare than a crypto.
Otherwise the website does look pretty slick! I didn't even see it until now; who made such a great thing?
I think sammy007 (or whatever number). Is there a website git repo where pull requests could be made, or an issue started to discuss changing the timeshare lingo?
The repo is in the usual place: https://github.com/aeonix/aeonix.github.io
I will say that while the quote might not be perfect, IMO it is better than nothing. We should have a clear distinctive branding.
Also, important update notice: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17956048

Pegasus approved, Stay Alpha
...Moneros lil brother...
Did you just assume this blockchain's gender? 
Thanks for your br00tal honesty. I am even more assured of AEON's success with Sir pegasus as a resident whale.
While pegasus draws Pegafractal escapement velocity of AEON, I have placed some funny money bids all the way down to 10 cents.
Moneros lil brother has grown up.

Also, in keeping with the spirit of my open honesty regarding Aeon, just making a public announcement of my intent to acquire about 20,000 more Aeon in the next hour or so. This will bring my holdings to their final level of 420k AEON, lolololololol.
Hmm, that is a serious bag.
How much of this you bought on OTC?
All of it. You can read this topic from the early pages and watch as I got really drunk in 2015 and ploughed Bitcoin after Bitcoin into the ask stack at like 1 to 2 cents each,, laughing maniacally and 'throwing my money away'. Aeon has always been a sort of playground for me, a respite from the nasty and normal world of srs bsns crypto.
Also, side note, It is done.

Hey fam.
I'm executing a buy for 45,000 AEON over on Bittrex. Some people were foolish enough to leave it laying around under 0.00005 BTC.
Their loss.
