Viewing on Internet Explorer messing up everything lol and viewing in Safari has some alignment issues but I am fixing that as I speak.

fixing problems as you type? thats quite a skill good sir.

 

I quite like the idea of the site, the button hovers are a bit to bright for a white background but ok. I would suggest putting

cursor:pointer;

in the hover definition of those buttons, just to make sure user's know to click on them.

All in all its quite a good, simple, clean design.

I would make a better randomizer...one that puts preferance on excuses you haven't already read...it's bad to get 2 "My lizards ate my homework" in a row. Also when you select the limit by category button it should stick to that limit for every submit.

preload the images on the buttons

And you should use AJAX to request a random excuse, instead of the page reloading. And perhaps make the area where the excuse is shown stretch to fit the excuse, so you don't have a small excuse in a large area. Colors are really bright too.

You say you are fixing problems, try the 45 you have for the validation of your page.

 

It's a nice thing, but there are a few flaws...

 

- White on that light blue kind of hurts your eyes

- The filter should ideally stay on the one you select throughout the user pressing 'generate'.

 

Keep up the good work.
