Do you mean to say that if the interface was to the right would be more natural to you?
Glad to hear you found it intuitive, one of the main goals when making this was to make the search more fun, and reduce the need for typing in things. _________________ Tsosm! Now trying out a trashier front page. |

| So, just out of interest, what's your part in this and which bits are your friend? |

This is mostly my friend's brainchild.
He did the design, and the original idea.
Technically I mainly contributed with coding, mostly server-side stuff and some javascript.
Working at a bank for almost 5 years killed any aesthetic sense in me, so I stayed away from design. _________________ Tsosm! Now trying out a trashier front page. |

Well more that it should be more in the centre as it now feels like it's too much to the side. But that might be helped by making the feed bigger so that the empty space is reduced. _________________

You aggregate all of this stuff by hand? That sounds like a lot of work.

I can only tell you what I like, but as a non-designer with no education or experience on the production side of web design that may amount to just making your page look like everyone else's (recognition breeds comfort, after all). So take my advice with a grain of salt. _________________ "Worse comes to worst, my people come first, but my tribe lives on every country on earth.

I take even my opinions with a grain of salt...and usually a slice of lemon.
Again thanks for the feedback, it really was useful. _________________ Tsosm! Now trying out a trashier front page. |
