[santaclause102]

GREAT job on the site Brian, Cass and all the others! It looks and reads amazing!
Who wrote the about section? It reads very very nicely!

[cass]

Great to see something tangible. Thank you Brian, Cass and Team.

Constructive Criticism: Not formatted well in Chrome on an iPhone. The Mobile and Desktop versions are both cropped.

pls check again, issue should fixed now ... but still scroll problems on android and win phone … 

[cass]

we also now have an IRC channel
#bitshares @ freenode
not sure if IRC should be added to the webpage

yup sure

[cass]

- Can we have the menu font in BOLD white .. or anything else that increases the contrast?
- I am missing a link to github sources

could you pls check again readability ? thx

BitShares is trustworthy yet requires you trust no one.

Maybe my understanding of english is too german here, but doesn't this sentence actually mean "it is explicitly required that you trust no one, to use bitshares - so if you trust anyone it wont work?

• Next time leave a live site up until the new one is ready, so we do not have multi-day downtime

agreed

• Add description meta tag for each page, there is no description tag at all for SEO as of now

also agreed - as we said... it's not finished .. but we'll add metas asap .. thx four input

• Monetize your Float, As good as Cash on Merchants page, capitalize Your and Good to be consistent with the other ones

yup done

• Under More menu, Resources and Community are links that do not go anywhere (#), make those words non-links

this is ok for now ...

• Why is the "Team" menu link URL /who, should it not be /team?

yeah something strange goes on there^^ i have to check this problem later on! When using /team page isn't displayes.
Tried to delete and recreate but until now still no luck- have to check db later .... known problem thx

• Stay Tuned page had links to past newsletters might be nice, or at least the most recent one

Good idea ... done - http://bitshares.org/stay-tuned/

• The continue in "Continue reading >" text links on /press are sometimes capitalized and sometimes not

Good catch - done

• http://bitshares.org/hello-world/ remove this page

done

• http://bitshares.org/bitshares-guide/ --> remove the pingback comment, it is to a not to friendly article

yes sure but guess this is on your linux firefox version? or chrome!?

Yep .. linux/firefox .. If you tell me it looks better elsewhere .. I can live with it

edit: found the github link

I see you guys are not believers in the Oxford Comma.

Actually the use of the Oxford comma seems to be inconsistent (which is worse than either using it or not using it).

See the second page:

Save and trade in gold, silver, dollars, or other currencies.

But then see the third and sixth pages:

Eliminate the middle men, overhead and bloated profits of traditional banks.

Simply put, your account can’t be raided, compromised or seized.

I have additional feedback:

The Facebook logo in the footer links to "http://www.facbook.com/officialbitshares" rather than "http://www.facebook.com/officialbitshares". Interestingly, it appears Facebook owns facbook.com and does the redirection.

I also second the change from "MAC" to "Mac OS X".

corrected thx

I don't like the background image of th eMerchants page, kind of gloomy. Looks like Hong Kong before a Kaiju attack

 
I like the background image but I think it'd work better in the third space with the title "AS GOOD AS CASH" while the mountains would be first with the title "INCREASE PROFITS".  Mountains first would be less gloomy while 'as good as cash' with the image of people on the streets makes more sense IMO.
