Last time it was 1995 when I saw so ugly logo treatment. What is this grey box on the back of logo?!
Thanks for the feedback. Graphics design is not an area of primary strength or interest for us. Perhaps, you'd like to contribute an alternative logo?
Have you thought of using Twitter Bootstrap (http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/) or Zurb Foundation (http://foundation.zurb.com/) to help you out with a cleaner and easier UI?
Thanks. :) I'll ask my people to check these out.

Still (many) rough edges there that we're working on, but done for the most part.
I built it primarily for this (HN) community and now (while we - me and my people - continue to expand/improve it), I invite all interested HNers to pitch-in with/contribute/share what they can.
Some specific ways/areas (in no particular order) where you can help are:
1. Send bug reports
2. Provide General feedback (please post here or at the site message board)
3. Send New ideas / suggestions
4. Submit Startup information (yours or others)
5. Suggest Startup advice feeds
6. Suggest Startup resources (under the resource directory - Add URL)
7. Suggest a structure/content plan for the 'Failed Startups' section
8. Suggest a structure/content plan for the 'Job Board' section
9. Suggest additional categories for the Resource Directory and
10. Anything else you can think of
We've given it our best shot, now please help us make it more useful for the community.
