    No problem, I've got plenty more- modal dialogs have green close buttons! 'Sort by' button doesn't show current sort type without clicking, etc etc. DocumentCloud looks like a fant…

    For the last 6 months or so I've been working on a 'wikipedia for images' type site. I'm trying to fix all the UI deficiencies that bug me about other image sites. As a personal pr…
