Unsolicited feedback:

* Your input box doesn't look like a text box

* The 'enter' key doesn't work in the text box

* 'Refresh' neither looks like a refresh icon, nor has a label

* The fade on the right of the gallery implies you can scroll, but this isn't possible

* The generated logo + icon pair wasn't immediately noticeable (the first image is the icon without text, and the first icon isn't guaranteed to be noticeable), possibly generate image with text + logo on a transparent background and put it above the 4 sample images.

Haha, that's a bit of a cruel response to someone who just wrote he had a "perfection" problem. You probably had OP to waste the entire week now. WebDesign is a total time sink

On desktop, you can actually scroll right now

This is good feedback though, as I had the same issues. It shows the value of launching and iterating quickly with user feedback, rather than building in the dark in the guise of perfection.
also a good demonstration of the "you can never please everyone, so it's not worth trying to" adage
Haha totally. I had to keep in mind that my perfect is someone else's average.
