I love it! Great work Naomi and congrats on a wonderful internet presence for you Lisa. The only comment I have is (Bing! How could you Naomi!). Just kidding. I am a Google fan. I know they are the same thing for all intents and purposes. Ok I have more comments. I love the animations on the icons. So was it intended that the FAQ one looks a bit like a question mark sticking out of the pocket by default? Maybe I am the only one who sees that. The "As Seen On..." block... wait not they are circles... made me smile... very cleaver. Good job to both of you!

Shawn - the question mark was the first thing I noticed when she did the animations!! Coming from you Shawn I am very happy that you are pleased! West Host has been very easy to work with - thanks for the advice there!

Looks like a great new site, congrats! Love the mouseover icons at the top with the heads popping up it gave me a good laugh especially the monkey one since I'm a profound monkey lover!
Only critique (from a developers standpoint) is the About Lisa page where the text spills outside of the circle. If you don't plan on changing the text often you might consider just making the circle+text in the same image. That way you can cleanly put the text up to the edge and it'll look right on all browsers/monitor configs.

Job well done both Naomi and Lisa. What a fun website..................... and I noticed the question mark also. Congrats to you both.

I would be interested in knowing how many of you see the text spilling out of the circle because it is not that way when I see it. I know that Naomi had to work on that initially Hopefully we will be able to get it worked out! Glad to know what everyone is seeing!

I'm out right now (using P&S new mobile setup) but if you want late tonight I can take Screenshots of anything off I find and shoot you an email of them. Just let me know, glad to help.

Maybe you should send them directly to Naomi instead of me because I wouldn't know how to fix it anyway!

Thank you! Lots of hard work, and I'm very glad to hear that others like it. Even happier that Lisa likes it :D
The only comment I have is (Bing! How could you Naomi!). Just kidding. I am a Google fan. I know they are the same thing for all intents and purposes.
I prefer Google search over Bing, but as a web designer, Bing gets my vote for the search function. Google not only requires an account being made, and ads displayed; but Bing requires no sign up, and has no ads. Although Bing's function is certainly the uglier of the two.
Ok I have more comments. I love the animations on the icons. So was it intended that the FAQ one looks a bit like a question mark sticking out of the pocket by default? Maybe I am the only one who sees that.
Pure fluke. I was in the middle of working on the icons when I realised the little ribbon (is that what it is?) looked like a question mark. I had fun making the icons, Beatriz's work was so good it's hard not to want to use it everywhere.
The "As Seen On..." block... wait not they are circles... made me smile... very cleaver. Good job to both of you!
Thanks! Those circles I think were driving me crazy by the end of it... only because the blog page was hard to do with 'collapsible' heights and arcs.
