Flagged. I've had college projects longer than your tenure as a startup CEO. Also, on ArtSpot: The front page signup lightbox is broken--it isn't sized properly and the signup button is moved wrong. You need to remove the "btn-block" class, or at least disable display:block on the element. Also, the lightbox shows up over the header--it should probably just occupy the main pane. The footer on the front page could probably stand to be a proper navbar. The background color of the typeform is slightly darker than the rest of the page background on the "Own a venue?" page. In fact, why use typeform at all? Just embed a Google Form and save me the trouble of having to sign up for anything. That'll also save some annoying and ugly display scrolling display behavior. Ditto for the "Collectors" page.

Hey there-- Thanks for your feedback. I've had college projects last much longer too. I have another co that's doing ~$500k /year, but that's not the focus of this blog post. Moving on... the design needs a lot of love, right now it's sub- bootstrap quality. How is the lightbox broken? It loads center-top for me, and buttons in the right spot. Not saying it's pretty, but not broken either. RE footer, for sure. Spent no time on that (yet), but could definitely be improved. Agree re TypeForm too. I like the feature of sending Typeform straight to Mailchimp, bypassing double opt-in, etc and didn't want to set up API connection for G Apps to Spreadsheet to Mailchimp. So kinda being lazy there, but yes this needs a refresh. Perhaps I can open up the page template so the scrolling bar disappears on its own, for the time being. BTW, Typeform(s) on site are for info gathering. Signing up as an artist (via 'Get Started') is instant auth, other 2 spots on site are for manual outreach or Mailchimp signup. Thanks again! BTW, what do you mean by 'flagged?'

    Ah, good times. And he provided helpful feedback too. HN makes no sense.

  The trick with the lightbox is that it could probably just occur in the main content pane--as it is now, especially on larger monitors, it looks like it is sized incorrectly.

    Gotcha, sure I can make that change. Just next time don't flag an appropriate post.
