We were hoping some you may be awesome enough to provide feedback as to what sucks and/or what rocks.
I can't thank you enough in advance. Our users thus far have had HUGE say in the direction we go and we plan on keeping it that way.
Thank you HN!
One thing I would say, is that hovering over the items to show the voting buttons covers to much of the image, can get a bit annoying as your scroll down, maybe it should be more transparant? or the voting buttons appear without the black background?
Anyway, love this site design, logo and content. Nice work. I've also just signed up ;)
Is this something like Pinterest but for men? It looks cool, but its a bit confusing to navigate (for me).
We're not trying to be Pinterest for men. While the frontpage may seem similar to them, our content really centers around future products. In the process, what we're trying to do is to get a good sense of how much others are anticipating the products. (for example, what is the lineup for the next iPhone gonna look like)
I do understand that it is slightly confusing. It's a quiet launch so that we can tweak it and make it as best as possible. What part of the navigation more specifically do you find is a bit confusing?
Love it. Really interesting content, have bookmarked.

That's freaking awesome feedback. It's awesome because we're actually gonna be modifying the hover over the items. (I've realized that I hate it too!)
Feel free to email me personally. I would love to provide you with in-depth insight into Hypejar and would love to hear further feedback from you (if possible). grant(at)hypejar.com.

I do agree with the hover comment made by RossH though. I found myself having to put my cursor in a "crack" while I scrolled down. Perhaps put the votes on the bottom half of the tile instead of over the image?
I click these links with a "what can I hate today" attitude (I know I know, but there's so many bad implementations of bad ideas), but I'm surprisingly fond of this. I could actually see myself using it. If not just because it feels very modern and looks great. I do agree with the hover comment made by RossH though.

Thanks for the feedback. What you say actually confirms what we've been hating ourselves! What we're gonna be doing is making the pics less dark when hovering over. We're also gonna be pushing the buttons to the top left so that you don't have place your cover in a "crack."
Thanks so much for your observation.

Agreed with this hover comment. Maybe slightly more translucent, only covering a fixed height at the bottom of the image, push the two buttons slightly closer together. I reckon that would do the trick nicely! :)
