A bit brash, but if you're referring to the grey text at the bottom on my footer. It's simply that, a footer, and hardly anyone clicks on it, and they shouldn't.

But if you're referring to my overall background being black and then the content BG (white) coming in a bit late-- Sure I was a bit lazy on the code but merely wanted to get this up and running asap.

And no, I don't think you should take my advice because you apparently don't need it. I was simply sharing my post in an effort to expose myself for criticism or web nerds to talk to.

Cheers.

And a lot of other reasons. One of those is Bourbon. Do yourself a favor and stay away from Compass though. It's very bloated and... just not good.

Good luck going forward!

I read the article. Good stuff, and well written. Apologizes for being "brash", but this is how it looked when I first went on your website, even after multiple refreshes.

I thought it was some new hipster theme where you would have to highlight the text to read it. Thankfully I was wrong. :D
