I built my first non-static website this last weekend with PHP, AJAX and MySQl. Can you guys can give me some feedback and/or advice on it? I need some opinions outside of my close friends and family.
I'm no guru but I think orange on orange is not easiest colors on eyes to read.
Login button could say "login".
Interesting idea btw.
You will get better feedback if you write in which area you want the feedback. Design, idea... I'm no guru but I think orange on orange is not easiest colors on eyes to read. Login button could say "login". Interesting idea btw.
I had a feeling about the orange on orange. I checked them against he WCAG and they failed but, I still kept them. That'll teach me.
I didn't think about the login button. Thanks!

- text is nearly unreadable - there's no separation for any of the posts. no rankings, you can't visually separate elements within the post. there are too many of them on there -- which do I read first? Should I read them all, or just the top one? Are they in some sort of order? A visual redesign will help will all these things. - Can I post w/o creating an account? I hate creating an account places. Why do I need to do that? It's not obvious that I need to create an account to post. - Who are these people? Are they users, or celebrities? Is this their twitter feed?
I'd focus on visual design. You don't really have too much "usability" that's very complex.

Quick question. From a user standpoint, is creating an account more annoying than filling out a captcha everytime you want to post? Or should I find a way to avoid both?

Thanks Travis. It seems that a visual re-design will be in my near future. A ranking system is a great idea. The idea behind the posts separation is that you can search according to the city you are in. I guess that a short paragraph at the top of the homepage or an about page would be a good addition.

Why do you really need a captcha? Have you seen for sure that spambots will target you? I'd recommend (at least initially, while it still scales) that you just let people post. If spam becomes an issue, moderate. If that doesn't scale, then I'd move to a captcha system. But don't build it in unless you know you'll need it.

Personally, I'd rather fill out a captcha each time than have an account. I just don't see a reason why I'd need an account. However, I suspect that this might be a pretty diverse issue (i.e. people feel strongly about each side, so there's really no right answer and compromise is difficult).

Also, I gave the site a visual makeover. Hopefully it will be easier on the eyes now.
