Thanks for the constructive feedback, that's why I love this place. :)
- I haven't decided whether I want to keep the logo at all, and where it should go. I may play with it more later.
- Thinned out the numbers to reduce their weight, and it seems to be enough IMO.
- Here our taste will differ. But that's a good thing, right?
- Currently this works on one machine with one browser. If people like it, I'll polish the hell out of it, sure. Cross-browser and cross-platform will be the first thing on my list.
- They were awkwardly lumped to the header in the current layout, I think. Just wanted them to have a little space to breathe.
- That would be the second thing on my list if the style finds users.
- The jarring placement of the YCombinator image, throwing out the alignment and flow of the page.
- The over-sized numbers for each item.
- The excessively big header "Hacker News", and what appears to be a strange effect in the screenshot.
- Lack of a fallback font for Helvetica Neue (Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif).
- The centred nav items along the top bar are awkward.
- The tiny up and down vote buttons are what people struggle with the most in terms of mis-clicks, maybe these could do with some attention.
- A slight gap between each article so the "slab of text" effect isn't so strong.
