-               Welcome to EmuFront.
+               <h1>Welcome to EmuFront!</h1>
+
+               <h2>About</h2>
+               <p>EmuFront is an universal (multi-system) computer and video game console emulator front-end implemented in
+               QT, C++ and SQLite targeted on Linux operating systems.
+               Although this project is currently hosted at Maemo Garage,
+               this is pure QT project and doesn't have any Maemo specific
+               dependencies. You can use EmuFront on any QT Linux platform. I'm
+               planning to release two GUI options PC and Mobile (MeeGo,
+               Maemo, ...)</p>
+
+               <p>EmuFront is Open Source Software licenced under GPL version 2.</p>
