About the site I personally don't like to see all that text displayed right away, it looks too crowded for me.

Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback - definitely a consistent message here that it's too busy.

I'm a designer, in my opinion if you want to have all that info displayed in the front page you may try adding a margin to the .question_list class and maybe changing your font-family in the class .description to Verdana (also you should add more font-families in case the user don't have that font).

I'm just saying that you should let your page breath. ;)

Thanks for the technical feedback. I'm responsible for implementing the chaotic front page.. sorry. :(

I'm assuming you're suggesting Verdana for the class .description because it's a little more wide than arial at 11px? I've been switching between the two.. but it's pretty apparent now that the page needs some more 'breathing room'.

Good luck with your startup!

Try playing with font families, sizes, margins and line heights ;)
