Nice idea

Site looks good - I like the orange!

Just one thing - why can you scroll sideways in the hollabox - when there is nothing to scroll to (it is blank when you scroll)

I have signed up and posted under the name 'redhotcrab'

EDIT: Ah - I see why you can scroll sideways - one user has posted a long message - maybe it should just carry on downwards, rather than sideways? Also, after playing for a bit more, I can't seem to change the icon. hmm....
Also, is the 'Holla' button supposed to send your message? And this button seems to overlap the link to 'ebook outragous' - hope this helps!

I'm using Firefox. Take a look at my edit of my original post - I think that is why.

The problem is that IE is too 'kind', and if some code is wrong, it is more likely to still show it correctly than most other browsers. At least if you know that it works in a less 'forgiving' browser such as firefox, you will know that it always works!

You needn't worry - it is still perfectly functional, just not quite as asetically pleasing
