Thanks for the shouout, such an honor.

Also, what browser/platform were you using to take a screenshot of mine? It looks a little off. My CSS skills must be lacking if it's not cross compatible :( #fail

With a screen resolution of 1280x800 the nav is 'below the fold' on at least one of these sites. How could you miss this simple design error. Many picture editors would leave in an instant...
