Is it any more apparent once the categories have more items (for example the noTag category)? What changes would you suggest?

Yeah. Already it's hard to remember why it wasn't clear. Maybe you should open up an example of thread and responses. Have the app show stuff to engage with right from the first page load, don't rely on people to click twice to see how it works. There's 12 things to click on the first view. Don't rely on them clicking the right thing.

Edit: What's that rabbit for, anyway? Why is the header/logo/mascot on the bottom right? Why does shit overlay it without covering it?

Thanks for the input. I'm going to change it so that some content is already open on page load, hopefully that will be a better starting point. The overlay is so that you can still tell something is loading with the ajax, but you are right, that might be a bit much, especially for the pictures

Yeah. Maybe put it on the top right and make it smaller?
