I agree, things like font size and the like can be tweaked over the
next few days...

Things I found that do need fixing:
Translation page is blank.  At least put a "under construction" placeholder.
The "try it" download link at the bottom of the about > What is
Freenet? page doesn't work.
There should be a button to "contact the webmaster" or "report a
broken link".  Probably just a mailto: would be fine and I think it
could go on the bottom banner.
