Pretty cool idea.

Even just to create a game for yourself for playing with friends.

The website is a bit limited, though.

The games pages should have at least a picture of the board and a description of the included parts.

Totally agree, when you are selling pre-manufactured products it is even more important than usual to nail down the aesthetics and provide clear product previews. Amazon can skate with small, not so great product images because people trust the brands, but with this kind of Mass Customization visualization is key.

I'd also love to see a comment section and/or links to boardgamegeek so that I can quickly get the opinion of people who have played it.

Well, it seems that it's only in beta, so hopefully we'll see more improvements later.
