As you know I'm not a fan of the capital letter things. Apart from that I like it.

Thanks everyone!

@Jack: Yeah, I know :) I tried it a few different ways, but that's the best of them, so I'm happy with it.

@Mike: It is a little small... I might tweak it up a bit at some point. Glad you like it!

The shooting stars are my favourite bit! I sometimes turn the music on (did anyone notice the music toggle in the menu?), and just watch the stars... :D

In general: websites with background music SUCK.. but in this case, the choice is the right way around :) (and no, I didn't notice :) )

Yeah, most users don't appreciate background music that auto-starts (Especially if they're using tabs!). But I like the atmosphere music can create, so I figured it couldn't hurt to include it if it was opt-in ;)

Oh cool... I didn't notice the music either. But that's a nice touch. The shooting stars are awesome!

It looks great, nice theme going on. But the font really is to small. It just seems to dense maybe if it was bold it wouldn't look so bad at that size.

Although you did modify another theme by replacing a few images and things you did add some steroids to it with the music and shooting stars and other design elements.

Readability - B+
Quality - A++

ah! I re-checked it with the music ... nice touch! ;)

I really like it. The font doesn't bother me much but maybe it will for future clients.... tho future clients might be designers looking to hire you for dev work but you never know :)

Well done tho!

Thanks, Karinne!

Thanks also, mv08jml. The only thing it really has in common with the original theme now, is some of the HTML, and some of the CSS. All images are different, and quite a few other things too. Thanks for noticing :)
