Nice and clean design. I think the pitch here is the perfect pitch to put up on the website given that your primary audience are developers. Also some information on it's integrated into a website would be useful.

Thanks for the feedback, unfortunately I can't take credit for the design, it's straight out of theme forest :)

That's a good idea about explaining how it's integrated, all you need to do is include the bugMuncher.min.js script on a page, (and jQuery if you don't already have it). Of course the feedback won't submit if you don't have an account with BugMuncher.

Think I'll add an FAQ section, and put that in.

Thanks again.

You may want to clarify that the private data that's "blacked out" is still sent to both BugMuncher and the third party you're using for screenshots. The blackouts only hide things from the email recipient.

I'd be careful about this as you're potentially collecting (and rebroadcasting) an awful lot of personal information about users of the service. Security tokens in pages, links to images, usernames and emails.

I should probably clarify this on the website: the full HTML (including potentially the information under the blackout) is sent to the server so it can be re-rendered. As soon as the screenshot is taken all the HTML content is deleted. Also the third party screen shot service doesn't cache anything.

I'll create a privacy policy page and put a more detailed description in that ASAP.

Thanks for the feedback.
