I'm by no means a UI expert, but
1. The email box / button needs to be much bigger. You probably want a more custom button style as well
2. Image loading speed is inconsistent; choice of image also. I will probably stick with a single image
3. Animation of the record is cool, but it should be triggered once only. There is no need for a big "X" button to reset it
I went through your blog post and I like your idea. Would love to see further iterations with the page and product
