New vb tutorial website

[swaggots]

Hey guys, today I'm releasing my new project.

It's a website loaded with tutorials for Visual Basic on how to operate it, and create different programs with it.

The website is still under construction but a beta version is released

You must be registered to see links

.

If you guys could check it out and gimme constructive criticism, that would be really great. (We had problems with the stuff getting moved around when changing we hosts, fixing it now)

Features to be added in the official release:

• User membership (login, sign up, etc)
• New template
• TeachMeVb desktop app (program made in VB which gives you all the tutorials on your desktop)
• Program showcase (showcase your VB programs)
• + more

If you got any good idea for a feature, pleas comment below.

Thanks,
Swaggots

PS: sorry for the crappy typing, writing this on my phone.

Some critism (not evil meant):
- Pimp the design, it looks horrible
- 2010? Go for 2012 or 2013, people do not want to learn outdated programming, except for native alternatives
- Your tutorials explain the how, but not the why
- Syntax highlighting
- Black / white contrast hurts when reading code
- Your solutions are not complete or wrong, they lead into situations you will not explain, see below
- A page with tutorials from a beginner for beginners (?)


The pre-last point .... example:

You must be registered to see links

"Double click on the form to show the code" - Double clicking your form will create a form load event method + subscription in the code-behind. You do not explain why and where to place the code exactly. Your code should be case sensitive how .NET is. It's wrong. This is not a tutorial, this conclusion can I make on ALL your tutorials.

I'm sorry that I am hard. Take this as constructive critism, because I hate Yes-Sayers in general. At me you will get the true hard reality. You are not ready for publishing tutorials.


If you do not believe me, compare your tutorials with this I made: [.NET] Merging .NET components - RaGEZONE forums

This is skid-city. Just so you know, that's not a good thing.

I like the idea! But the website design does look horrible. Do yourself a favor open up photoshop design something a little better and use a grid system to make things easier. That's what I did I'm still learning PHP but tonight I made a whole new template looks like poop but im horrible with photoshop, but regardless, I used a grid system things are layed out and when i finally get it out there ill post it. It's a random user information generator, login, remembering generated info etc.. mysql based.
