User reviews
Great styling for a great site
It's awesome, but could you please open-source the code and put it in GitHub so I can fork it and fix some annoying things? Thanks!
Please remove the padding between the title bar and actual news as it only takes up space. (delete <tr style="height:10px"></tr>)
