A lot more to do to the Web Site, but I want some of your feedback to get the main structure right so that it doe's not need to be changed later on.

I'm going to be adding pages for all the different Gadgets etc. I'm working on those right now.

Nice page...but...

i would have the navbar in another frame, so it doesnt need to be reloaded, and it makes the page better readable i think.

the design seems to be made for kids at the first look, but still i like it... it might be possible that some people may think its a little bit childish, but who cares!

keep up the good work!

From your Site:

> I will be adding the new Tutorials as I receive them from PureBasic Users.

Personally, i think, you won't receive much stuff like that The Recource Site also
has a Tutorials section, but the only ones who wrote something are Art Sentinel and me.

I mean, i will write some more stuff from time to time, but if you want to have a very good
HowTo/Tutorial Site, you'll probably have to start to write your own stuff, instead of waiting for others to do it.

But with some work, this site can be a very good recource for beginners.

Well thats my plan to try and help new users to understand PureBasic.

I decided not to go with Frames on the web site so that no one will have problems.
I just uploaded a new web site to it so that it does not look like a kids web site now.

And if you dont mind Freak I would like to post your tutorial for Pointers on my Web Site?
I think it's one of the best around.

Thank you All.

Never mind the whingers, I loved the kiddy colours because I am a big kid at heart. And besides, you did say the site was for beginners (kiddy level) so it was appropriate :):)

Just one thing, on the front page, you have "Bare with us". It's spelt "Bear" Bare means naked and i'm not taking off my clothes for anyone's web page !!!!!

Thanks Everyone,

The Web Site is just a starting point, I'll be updating it alot with new stuff.

I'm still new to PureBasic also so the site will also grow with me LOL.

But like always I welcome all your comments on the Web Site.

Enjoy

Some more tipps/suggestions for your site...


New design looks good, but takes a little long to load (even here with DSL, must be hours on 56k modems )
If you write about a file on your site (like in faq section) you should always add a link to it. This is becourse if your site grows (what it hopefully does) it will get hard for the users to find the file you're talking about. Just adding a link would make that easier.
The 'Program Style' Tutorial is empty/doesn't load
About the Downloads Page: The programs added seem a bit complicated and specific. Remember: This is a Beginner's site. Try to add simple, and well commented Programs, were the User can understand, how it works, and lear from it. This is much better than a big source, were ou know, that it works, but not how it works.


That's all i have for now, keep up the good work...

Server is a 1.4 gHz P-III. But then it's in the USA and I know I'm even slow on the weekends here and I'm on 10 mbs Cable.

Well I'm working on a whole new Web Design now to try and bring down the loading speed etc.

Hi Art,

How about just getting rid of all the graphics - keeping it to text makes a big difference and you can still get a really nice effect.

My site runs of an ancient 33MHz IBM RS/6000 (well this page does anyway - other bits run off other servers) and it flies despite being generated by cgi every time.

My WWW site is ok http://www.topcat2.com/cgi-bin/naw/viewEvents.cgi - this link takes you to the main *page* you don't want to be bothered registering & stuff...

I built it very quickly (primarily because I didnt waste hours designing graphics for every menu item)...
