#12Why is it orange? Ruby should be red.
The background is a gradient from orange to red, but the orange is on top, so the header is orange.

#13I really don't like the tiny 'copy' icon aside the gem install code:
http://rubygems.org/gems/rails
And it shows as 'Missing...' on a browser without flash.

#14Huge thanks to DockYard for working on the design on this; it looks amazing! As an open source maintainer, one of the most valuable things people can contribute is great design. Not a lot of designers think to spend their spare time contributing to open source. If you work at a company with great designers and you ever notice they have some spare cycles, you can have a huge impact by helping them contribute to your f…
This looks good but two things: 1] The guides section is still on the older design which I'm guessing will be updated later? 2] IMHO on the show gem page the authors/owners section should be moved below licence + versions/runtime-deps sections.
