Site check on community site

[benlowry]

I've just finished a major overhaul on my site, www.thecodebehind.com, adding tonnes of features etc.

Some of the new features include:
- 2mb of space for members to store images
- customising their blogs stylesheet
- attaching zips to forum posts & comments
- viewing the contents of zips
- posting reviews of their websites
- a custom menu of bookmarks members can make on pages in the site

Some of the features - like zip uploading - are geared specifically towards flash developers with problem fla's, so I'm especially interested in feedback from members here, although all feedback & suggestions is welcome.

Quick Look:

Design looks very clean
Easy to navigate

but needs more content so I can pick up more knowledge ;)

[benlowry]

Heh,

I'm getting there with the content! I added 2 javascript examples, 2 asp.net/c# examples and 1 flash example today. I'm hoping of course that eventually others contribute content as well which will help reduce the "empty" look. I can't add a lot to it every day though I'll be adding as much as I can.

no worries

I am just teasing you =P

[benlowry]

I'm a little sensitive about the lack of content :mad:. I have an overwhelming urge to create a site which rivals all the ones JupiterMedia et al. raped and it's quite annoying that it doesn't happen overnight.

PS. I just added another page :)

I've finished the first round of updates on the new site. Several things were fixed or modified, and some things were added:
- forum signatures
- code syntax highlighting for a dozen or so languages
- editing posts & threads no longer locks after 3 hours
- superficial changes like padding on images
- id's added to h1 & 2 tags on the blog so the stylesheet editing is more customisable

I've also added about 15 or 16 more pages of content!

one little error while browsing:

[benlowry]

Fixed. I changed the "SEO" category to just be a group in "Web" an hour or so ago, and missed it in one place. That link still won't work, but the page where that link is will use the correct url now.
