More Website advice:

  - the text is too big
  - Add padding to text and images
  - Add space between elements (look crowded)
  - too much moving stuff: Loose the marquee text
Pictures and videos looks awesome, the product looks superb, love the concept of having different height for keys. Congratulations on your launch!


I am sorry, but I strongly disagree.

The Marquee text is what catapulted the site from "This is nice" to "This is Art" for me.

But then again I am more viewing the page as a piece of performance art than an actual attempt to sell me a keyboard!


The <marquee> shall scroll again.

Needs some <blink> to be True Art though.


I haven't seen marquee text without an "Under construction!" .gif in quite a long time. It's tacky.

Even if you disagree the constant motion is objectively bad for people with attention impairments ("cognitive accessibility").


It looks good at some viewport sizes, but the margins are a bit messed up at other sizes: https://i.imgur.com/8XLzD0S.png


Try looking at out on mobile. It screams geocities.


Everything is too big and zoom out is broken. Honestly it's completely unreadable to me. I'm not even exaggerating, I really cannot read the "Introducing..." sentence.

There's no way to get a full view of the keyboard layout. The only full image is vertical (wtf), spinning (wtf) and doesn't fit on my 27" monitor (wtf). I would almost be ok if zoom out worked, but it doesn't.

Update: writing this, I see now that the top image shows the full keyboard horizontally... for 1 full second. With no way to pause the animation. And it keeps spinning and spinning.

Also the mouse cursor is horrendous and unnecessary.

I feel like I would like the design of this keyboard (except for the font choice which I don't like at all), but the website refuses to show it to me. Too bad.

Also why is there a "shft" key instead of "shift"? Did the "i" not fit?

I'm not sure what the rotary encoder is for? What does it do?
