Good effort on the new site but I'm afraid it doesn't get my vote. I feel the typography chosen for the titles of the apps wasn't great - letters are hard to make out, as I think the font has kerning problems .. The whole page also looks way too small in my opinion. I much preferred the previous layout with the apps lined up on the left side. I can't remember exactly what the site looked like without using archive.org but it seems a lot plainer and a little less inviting now. Hope you don't mind me saying about this, just think you guys deserve something special as your app design is always first class. Hi guys…

Who cares if a site uses frames or not! If frames are a problem for someone then they have to be using some really archaic system that needs updating. Ridiculous. are people really that pathetic?

Frankly the typography sucks, nothing lines up with anything else because you don't specify a page width and your home page looks totally different to the rest of the site.

If you increase the font size, yes, weird things happen on the front page. There's also the navigation menu wrapping problem on the application pages if your window is narrow. Both of these problems have been noted, and we'll get to work on fixing them. :D Ah, I see it now. If you increase the font size, yes, weird things happen on the front page.

At first I thought it was some sort of avant garde layout technique: 0[]%! The Omni Group "Why, yes, I work for The Group... The Omni Group." Yeah, I could see Joel saying that.

Ignore this if not. Whilst all the visual elements on the front page are attactive and franky beautiful in their clarity, I can't help feeling the elements have all been squashed together to choking - dispite the nice stuff due to a lack of space above and below elements such as the news flashes it looks really busy (in this respect alone it was much better before). Also in comparsion to the font sizes elsewhere the news flash text is ugly big, which again crushes things together. I'm really sorry if this is out of order, its all subjective anyway. Hope you don't want to hit me with a stick! I'm one of those anoying ex-graphic designers that can't stop scratching an itch. College made me a monster! Hi Guys - do you want visual feedback?

Maybe the problem is that we're all using the internal alpha builds of OmniWeb 5.6? (At least I know I am.) We'll check it out, thanks again! Ohhh.
