This looks really nice, thanks for creating it.

I'm looking to use it for a small redesign project this week, and I had a quick concern - when I load the sample files on my OS X 10.9.2 in Chrome, the text won't show. Once I "inspect element" in Chrome, it pops in. Strange error for sure - just me or anyone else?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Also, I'm not sure SPAN is a requirement for the .active element in a .breadcrumb, but your .breadcrumb-arrow requires one.

I think your constructive criticism has more chance of being heard at the github repo: https://github.com/bootflat/bootflat.github.io

I toyed with the idea of logging these as issues, but thought they might not quite qualify, and assumed the author would be reading this thread. Maybe I'll go log them there after all ...

Another flat CSS theme for bootstrap? How many minutes did that take you? The layout on the site does look nice though. http://flathemes.com/ is your main website, it has a link to download version 1.0.1 (even though github says version 2.0.0 is the latest), then when I click download it says that I have to Like with Facebook or Twitter to download my "free gift" of your BootFlat theme, that rubs me the wrong way.

Stop the hating, please. It has a hugely negative effect on HN in general and on creators specifically. Don't use it if you don't like it.

Yeah! How dare an author of something free asks you to do another free action to acknowledge his work that you're about to benefit from!
