I don't remember mentioning that I didn't know what cognitive ergonomics means, but thanks for the feedback.

  No offense was intended - I was more referring to my experience with UX guys who don't know the basics of cognitive ergonomics - I did not mean to imply that you did not yourself. Nonetheless, the main page is a pretty gigantic violation of basic cognitive ergonomics tenets, and IMHO trades way too much usability for what I perceive as mere prettiness. Also, I'm very skeptical of the usefulness of the thumbnails altogether - the thumbnail communicates nothing (usually it's a screengrab of a wall of text) and doesn't tell me anything about what I'm about to visit.

    > IMHO trades way too much usability for what I perceive as mere prettiness I don't disagree with you. I'm going to try and find the time to add a toggle b/n list view and grid view so the user can save their preference. Then if it seems that most use the list view, I might just make that the default. > Also, I'm very skeptical of the usefulness of the thumbnails altogether Thumbnails of designs are a pretty standard convention with "design gallery"-type sites (http://cssremix.com http://cssremix.com, http://www.unmatchedstyle.com http://www.unmatchedstyle.com, etc). It's meant to do nothing more than give you a small idea of the site you're about to visit. The only alternative would be listing the site's title or URL and that certainly wouldn't be any more helpful. Thanks again for the feedback.
