I really like the slider animation, I think it will people bet alot more the way it moves around makes me more confident when i roll 
Glad you like it, we had some changes to the animation and design made for it which we haven't implemented yet. Should improve that experience though.
Is the chat room broken for anyone else? I see no chat msgs at all when I click on English chat.
That is a cloud flare issue as Micro already mentioned it will be fixed shortly. 
This is the only major issue at the moment, chat will not update without refresh due to sockets. We're hard at work to fix this.
