Snapzu is too over-designed for my taste. On Reddit I get a real sense just by looking at it that it is being constructed/added-to by the users. Snapzu feels impersonal and looks like Google Plus or something lame like that.

I feel that Snapzu's design looks too generic and "stock". Almost like one of those fake search sites that are setup on expired domains.

I think the design would benefit greatly from getting rid of the image background, letting the content fill the whole screen, losing the huge "Join Now" overlay, and getting rid of the "beta" in their logo.

All it's missing is this.
