Notes look good, just got some stuff to say about formatting and the arrangement itself.

-The first page is a little troublesome aesthetically; the copyright is too low and even then the music is almost on top of it.  I had a little mess around with the file and decided on:
1. Moving the title and composer info up a little bit (not much though).
2. Moving the copyright back to it's usual position (vertical alignment of 0 rather than -0.21 something).
3. Putting the right hand of systems 2-4 under an 8va so it can be brought down an octave visually. 
The last point creates a lot of extra space for you on the first page which allows for everything to sit nicely without invading the southern margins.

-The left hand is ... really tricky.  I'd highly recommend either one of two things:
1. Drop the semiquavers and just have quavers instead:

2. Move every second semiquaver up the octave:

The left hand in bars 11-12 is fine though since the right hand is free to help out, though you could make that more explicit if you wanted to.

-The reaches in the right hand of bar 14 and 17 are pretty much impossible due to the Db in the middle, so the voicings at those moments should really be changed.

Should be good now

I went with the second option, since it's a lot more movement that the R.H. just can't provide on its own.

Fixed.

Yeah, the second option was my preference as well.

Approved.

Yay replacement! Looks good, just two things:
- Fix the last beat of m. 16 to have a 16th rest followed by 8th rest.
- "Scap Brain Zone"

- Fix the last beat of m. 16 to have a 16th rest followed by 8th rest.
