Oooh, nice! =) I figured the tiny ones were meant to match the small screen but then they're supposed to be set in the future anyway..

The size was more to do with a lack of content than anything else.

The FE site:

These look great so far!

Looking at the source, it's quite clean, but full of divs. You can break that up and add a more clear distinction by using HTML5's semantic elements. Tags like <header>, <footer>, <main>, <nav> and <section> are useful for breaking up the content in a more meaningful way, both when looking at the source and for search engines to process.

(Btw, aside is used wrong on the page I linked. An aside is side/meta content for specific articles, like a quote or picture. My own site can give you an idea of how these semantic tags are used.)

Yes, I am aware of the elements in question, I just don't use them.

Here's why:

http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2013/01/the-harsh-truth-about-html5s-structural-semantics-part-3/

Regardless I've added some aria roles, and have converted the FE bug list into a definition list (dl, dt, and dd tags).

The Sting site is now refurbished:

Anyone got any ideas as to what domain name I should use for these when they are all done?

New link guys, this time a more permanent one:
http://www.bugsiteguardian.com/

Oh and Ruger has been remade and...

Jank has been made for the first time! Woo!

Take a look at 161 from the Jank site and feel my pain from when I tried to make it work on a charcoal background.

Only a remake of Tahiro left to go.

EDIT: Tahiro is done.

The Jank Logo is now in Comic Sans. Also I've added favicons to every site.

Oh, and I may not have mentioned this, but the sites can be sized down to Gameboy resolution and still look good.
