I have performed debuzzwordification on the header, and implemented the

I have tried adaptive design tool in firefox. Currently I would rather
complain concerning the size of the unicorn logo. It consumes whole
screen when emulation of a phone and landscape orientation is selected.
I expect more informative greeting.
In the meanwhile I spent some time trying to figure out what is
considered as the best practice to distinguish mobile/large screen
device. I did not expect that there is still nothing more than viewport
width. Blog posts recommended on stackoverflow have mostly mobile-first
design with oversized fonts on normal monitor so I could not take them
seriously. Finally I realized that MDN (developer.mozilla.org) pages
looks quite neat even though they have lager fonts for headers in
desktop layout than in mobile mode. So font size is quite subtle entity
in respect to perception.
Maybe I just too mean to allow the banner to consume so much space due
to huge fonts.
There is something wrong with nav and banner padding and margins.
Firefox in adaptive design mode shows a white stripe between them when
navigation menu is collapsed.
I should say that I am impressed (unsure in a positive or a negative way
however) by the hack with checkbox to show and hide the navigation menu.
But certainly I appreciate that it works with disabled javascript.
Before I was aware only of <description> and <summary> for a similar effect.

- There is colour to draw the eye - The position is around the main
design elements, and thus the path of the eyes - Icons, for the
reason outlined above - A more contrasting background - Movement, as
the page scrolls, they move across the middle of the screen Hence,
while they may not be as /in your face/ as some donation promts, I'd
be surprised if someone who looked at the page for more than a few
seconds didn't notice them.
I was unlucky enough to open the page in a browser window of such width
that bottom banner line resembles a continuous string of text with
uniformly altering bold/normal text "maintained by *Bastien Guerry* and
developed by *many others.* Support via" and "LibrePay" is more bright
again. It is just an opinion.
