I think this is a good idea because it is both simple and useful. There are lots of possibilities and I like that you already have the option for private or public flashcards.

Here's the thing: you HAVE to update the design. This is very 1990s geocities and honestly plain white space with black text would be better. The logo truly hurts my eyes. And the text that randomly shakes... just no, please. Sorry if I sound harsh but I'm dead serious - I could not in good conscious send people there even if that's what they needed (at least without a disclaimer, or not even then)

You're absolutely right, the inner pages need a serious redesign, the current one really is the first iteration ("thank god it works" state). OTOH I consider the landing page to be "final-ish" (except the logo / footer), do you think that is ok?

I use random shakes (jQuery rumble) at two places, the big "Sign up" button on the landing page, I think this is ok to grab the attention. The other shake effect is on the dashboard, the tutorial uses shakes to guide the user to the right actions to take, but these shakes will go away once the user did what the tutorial asked. Do you think both of these (landing page/tutorial) have to go? Maybe the tutorial could use some other effect, or I could make the UI simpler, so there is no need for such effects.

I will do the redesign in the next 2-3 days, your feedback was very well received, thank you.
