Curiously, I noticed when looking at this that my brain associates the style of the website with phyg-ish organisations. Upon reflection, most websites of organisations I trust don't look like this, because they are either not very slick and professional (often a side effect of being run by academic institutions), or actually have a lot more content (which causes everything to look less slick). I'm sure this will be fixed when more content comes along. I'm interested to see whether anyone else makes the association though, or if I'm just particularly sensitive when filtering information sources with visual cues?

It really is a very minor quibble. On the basic level, a clean slick and professional website is a great thing!
