Looks great, but your sticky header/nav bar takes up a quarter of the browser on my 13" MacBook. I'm all for sticky nav, but please make it smaller!
Agreed, especially when there is a ton of unused horizontal real estate on my screen. If you want to pin stuff, put it there. It's basically the 1024x768 browsing experience.
LaunchRock needs better compliance with CAN SPAM, perhaps double opt-in integration with a email marketing platform like MailChimp, AWeber, et. al. It should also have an option for unsubscribing, even with the automatically generated email. And at least a basic privacy policy integration that complies with Google AdWords.. because traffic doesn't just magically appear on your launch page.
In case anyone from launchrock is reading this: I'd be much more likely to use launchrock if I could embed the relevant functionality (signups, sharing, referrals) using javascript.
You're about to reimplement every tool that somebody would want to use to set up a landing page, beginning with an editor. What if I want to use a wordpress blog as my landing page. What if I wanted to embed the launchrock lead gen tools with some announcement that is posted on another site? I think that'd be useful and you wouldn't have to build so many things.

We do offer a JS embed option just for this. Just chose the widget option when you get started.
"Current Customers: The new platform is being rolled out over the next couple weeks. Currently, only new Customers will have access but please don’t think we forgot about you"
Ouch. I understand there is a large amount of technical work involved in getting everybody transitioned over smoothly, but you'd think they'd get the current customers ported over first, instead of driving off without them and promising they'll be back to pick'em up soon.

This was a decision that was made with careful thought. Because most of the rebuild was matching feature parity, our current customers would get little benefit from the new platform because they have already launched their site and building their audience. The new suite of features that we're announcing benefit our Customers who have not launched a site yet. Due to the size of the rebuild, this was just not a possibility, unfortunately.

Can one export mails to mailchimp? Or integrate with them? Looks like without double opt-in, they may not take me?
What are we supposed to do once there's a sizeable email list?

Really excited to see the new advanced features in an awesome product, while remaining easy to use.
Looks really interesting. Love the new themes.
Can't login bros.
Can you shoot more details to [email protected]? We'll figure out the bug as quickly as we can.
more than launch pages? finally!
Congrats to Jameson & team!
