I designed my own website, but I'm sure tptacek will tell you that I shouldn't have done so. :-)


I admire tarsnap's design it is clean and rather functional (except for maybe the tables for usage).

I don't mind websites trading style for functionality


except for maybe the tables for usage

What's wrong with them?


Personally I find them hard to read without any padding and it is much easier to read tables when they have alternating colors (I think some people like to call them zebra tables).

That is about it though, just a nitpick with my tastes.


For whatever it's worth, I personally really like your site design. You likely don't remember my feedback on my difficulty navigating it, but I actually appreciate its simplicity and lack of overweening bells and whistles.

I'm far more likely to be in your target market (despite not being an actual customer) than your average "web app" guy; so I think you're on the right track.
