One thing that I think every site should be is "clean", that is, organized and links should be easily found.  I've found Jamuse to be just that.  However, I am not a fan of scroll bars on websites... I do understand that there are some pages that work best with scroll bars, but if at all possible make multiple pages along with a "Next Page"/"Previous Page" buttons instead of long scroll bars.

I joined yesterday Nov. 4th, and I made a profile update today Nov. 5th and my "joined" date seems to have been moved up in time... will this continue to happen?  Will I have no real membership history with Jamuse?  This should be fixed.

In my profile my website address is a hyperlink, but doesn't look like one... everyone should know visually, without having to move the mouse over the address to find out that it's a hyperlink.  It should be underlined and turned blue which I believe is the universal indicator of hyperlinks.

Text seems to be very small... I personally think it's fine, but my experience tells me that others may think it's too small.

Love the way the images appear in a queue before they're displayed one at a time, very innovative and fresh.

I agree about the hyperlinks ... It is unclear what's a link and what isn't. I suggested early on that anything that looks like a link (e.g. somebody's name or avatar, next to their forum post) should be a link, and a lot of progress has been made in that regard.

Personally, I like the scroll bars. I think it's a lot faster to scroll down than to click on a "next page" link, and wait for a whole new page to load. It also allows for a more flexible layout, since elements can be more than 600px (or whatever resolution you decide to design for) tall.
