I am a native speaker and despite being a fan of the UkeHunt site for some time, am ashamed to say have only just noticed the joke. Basically, it’s a pun “UkeHunt” sounds like “You C*nt” (it is a little childish, to be honest). Hope this helps.

arg!! please, can someone explain the joke on the name? I’m (obviously) not a native-english speaker, it seems some kind of sexual joke but can’t find the exact meaning, what does it sound like, why is it funny? I don’t get iiiit ! :D

Great site. Just a pity I can’t recommend it because ‘ukehunt’ is such a naff schoolboy joke. I kicked the sides out of my cradle laughing it’s so old!
Apart from the title well done.

Really lovely looking site – nice one! The name “Uke Hunt” though is quite shockingly offensive. Deliberate?

Your redesign of Ukehunt is fantastic. Worthy of such a wonderful site. Good job.

I’m a long time reader of the site, as well. And I think you did a fantastic job creating the new look. Well done!

What really impressed me about the design was the blocky, home-made feel with a handmade font, which exactly fits the amateur DIY nature of the current ukulele movement (not implying the site design is amateurish of course; the way you’ve unified the different parts of the Woodshed empire, while giving each a distinct identity, is very clever). The shapes evoke the 1950s second-wave revival while still being contemporary, and it’s not remotely Hawaiian, hurrah. Good colour palette too.

As instructed by Woodshed, here’s a comment telling you you’re an ace. I actually DO think you’re an ace, though, the site is smashing, well done, well done!

It’s an awesome design, totally spot-on for what was required. You out-did yourself with this one!
