Whoever made your site. Don't fire them, shoot them.

Not my site. Just found it and thought it was worth sharing.
Besides some text readability issues, I thought the site was perfect for what it's for.
Yep.

I mean, on mobile(in particular), it is indeed awful, but I don't think it's expected or needed to be responsive(or otherwise optimized-for-mobile) at this point in the products life-cycle.

Yes there's a lot of room for improvement(as there is on every site, keep in mind web design is largely based on personal preference) the parent-poster's kind of response though is not productive.

What's wrong with this site?
I apologise for my impulsive reply. I should have better discipline (usually I don't reply at all because I know I'm pretty dickish)

This is how the site looks to me: http://s13.postimg.org/uduowd0if/sugar.png

In my opinion this is pretty terrible. We all know the importance of first impressions (case in point, people reading my initial response).

With a resolution that high you must be used to small fixed pixel width sites. Pity they can't all just be doubled or quadrupled in size.
The readability is really bad, and clicking an image brings me to a smaller version?
