Time for a fresh coat of paint?

I am seriously considering redesigning the Author Buzz UK site with a fresh new theme built from scratch.

The site has a few broken bits that no one looks at and a lot of code that is never used. I am starting to wonder if a slimmer theme that does only the things needed for the site might not be such a bad idea.

Thoughts?

I think I’ve said this before, but there’s so much going on here I sometimes get confused as to how I’m supposed to do something.

You’ve got forums, groups and blogs, and I don’t know what else you might have hidden somewhere. I understand the blogs, but don’t understand how groups and forums are supposed to interact.

Maybe get rid of some of this stuff to make it easier to navigate, and probably speed up the site as well.
