Hi, I realise I didn't give a very helpful review last time I just talked about the login question, so here is a proper review.

First of all there is a very small bug when you view the site in webkit browsers that is coursing the text on the bottom of the page to fall out of the div, I have no idea why though.

The other thing that catchers my eye is the fact that a lot of the form styling is left on browser default which would be fine but webkit has a real ugly default form style.

Also maybe the logo could link back to the homepage, I know that there is a link at the bottom of the page but I didn't see it at first and the logo tends to link back to the index page for most sites even ozzu does.

But I do like the idea and think that with a bit of work it could really take off, it just rests on you getting a nice solid userbace. Good Luck

i have designed the site for chrome. I have viewed the site in safarie and it came out fine. I know IE just messes up eveything. I am trying to work on that. And firefox is almost the same as IE. I am like i said working on it.

I am going to be redoing the css for the logo click back.

any other ideas i am open to!

to me this site is nothing with out the user. This is your site!!!

I have tested the site in FF4/Safarie/Chrome and it does not have any issues! I know about the bottom div of the cert and the security tags.

Updates.

We are now making all login/registration/edit profile information go thought HTTPS for your security!

I can only see one login page and it's pretty ugly man. Sorry

I would use a better font or have a custom font made.

Most of the visitor kick a website which website need to at first registration. Your website contain only a login box at first. Can you tell me why a visitor join your website without knowing any info.

You logo not good please edit it.

Think more about your website.

Tell that to Facebook and Twitter.



You need some sort of "About Us" paragraph on your home page to describe the service you provide. Maybe redesign your site as well.

Design isn't really my area but I do think you could work on functionality and offer better ways to "connect" on the site.

Also I didn't notice at first but the navigation isn't the best, I click a profile and are forced to click "home" or use the back button after that.
Its really exhausting to click through all the profiles that way.

Hey,

You obviously have a enthusiasm for this project, I know how you feel I've been there myself. I can only review on a user-experience an engineering perspective.

1. Get rid of the login box. Having 'X' registered member is pretty useless if they never come back again :(

2. You are using tables to layout your website. You need to move across to CSS and learn to embrace the nightmares that are x-browser issues.

3. Instead of writing your code from scratch you will achieve a lot more if you learn a framework. One of the biggest is "cakePHP" and although it's a lot to learn you will reap the rewards if you persist.

Good luck.
