Yes, thanks to all for helping! There are still some comments / ideas from this thread (such as a navigation with sub-menus, a cleaner nav menu on the mobile site, reworking some of the information-dense pages) that I think should be addressed but haven't been yet, and so I'll be making updates on

Great work Mike :-) I like the new web page a lot. Some comments: - Can we put a higher resolved Flink logo picture. Looks not good on my monitor and mobile - When browsing the web page on my phone, I noticed that all nav bar items start at the very left border. Maybe some kind of padding would

Looks great! Some minor comments: - Font page: Maybe put the latest blog posts before the power by logos? - Nav bar on the left: I noticed that for some links the active color does not show. Clicking on "Blog" makes highlights the link but not for others like "Powered By" On Mon, Jan 9, 2017 at
