Same for me. I thought it was broken, as without scrolling to the bottom of the page, the buttons are not visible and the content itself isn't clickable.

Also it isn't obvious what X and Z are supposed to do before using them (as the explanatory text is hidden slightly behind the orange bar at the bottom for me at least). When Z is selected it is unclear how to return to the previous page, as the images on the previous page aren't clickable, but the only way to exit the 'Z' screen is to click the image. Just feels a bit inconsistent, that's all.

Personally, I find the placement of the up arrow being adjacent to the left arrow but the right arrow being placed on the far right a bit jarring. I expect it to be a block of three buttons together - left arrow, up arrow, right arrow - in the centre of the menu options.

Interesting idea though - good luck!


Is it me, or is this a very similar site to Mark Zuckerberg's Facemash? I sense a lack of originality here, at least.

Is there any particular reason why it automatically opens on a female-female comparison? This will simply skew the numbers of ratings per gender.

Also, when first loading the site, the leaderboard for the females first registered +885 for the 'hottest' female, and then upon a reload approximately two seconds later, registered +1,384 for the same female. Also, a few moments ago I noticed it has dropped back to +885. It doesn't seem plausible this particular girl gained that many points in less than ten seconds, even if you are gaining 500 ratings a second as you claim.

Is the best way to spend our time really dwelling on aesthetic differences between people? The moral implications for this site are huge, and you are contributing to the intense pressure many feel to reach a specific aesthetic ideal. Is this really the best way we can spend our time? Surely you can think of better sites to create than this?
