Everyone has it's own taste...

another annoying thing is that no homepage has smoothly readable font

The fonts sizes are a  bit weird at the moment (Body font size is 69%) So
+ 2 times is around 100%. I'll change this later, so all em's are 100%, so
(i hope) this problem is fixed.

More people said this, so I'll make it a bit lighter.

apart from that, i think it's quite good work.
