Hi Adam, I would like to request a payment of my balance from my account on thebitcoinreview.com.

The site reports my balance at 0.285BTC, however I have made several news feeds additions in this thread that have not yet reflected on the current balance.

Thanks

That was cool...I just visited again and as you said in your post above, all the issues were fixed! I may have to login and post a few reviews. The site was quite useful as I was perusing musicians who had sold or attempted to sell their music for Bitcoin before.

Hey. A couple of suggestions from one web designer to another...

* Remove the extra whitespace above the page container. This will reduce the need to scroll to get to important information.
* The site has rendering issues for me on Firefox on Linux Mint where it looks like some items flow out of where they should be. http://imgur.com/lCnvj
* I noticed this for the page for CoinDL. Since the logo is creatd with transparency it comes out looking a little funny on the site. Granted I should probably render it with a white background but since you have to deal with many logos and want them all to look their best, you should make that area have a white background since it's the sensible default.
* Again a personal preference but I would move the icons for maps, charts, etc on the right a bit down so they don't overlap the boundary between blue and white areas. Labeling them with the little words 'Map' and 'Charts' for example would help people understand without having to rollover the links.
* How do you choose the items visible in the Bitcoin Business Directory when there must be tons of others? If it's an open process, I would like to have CoinDL show up in the Online Products section.


Hey thanks a lot for the suggestions!

-I think i fixed the display errors. i can't be sure because i can't reproduce the problem on my end.
-There isn't enough space to add small labels on the icons, but i added tool tips instead  
-I like the transparent logos. if you want to change your logo to have a white background PM me the new logo
-The Bitcoin Business Directory displays the top 5 sites in each category (highest rating with most number of reviews)

Very swank!  Looks great.   Smiley

I would suggest the ability to Favorite entries, and have a Favorited page.  Might be a bit much for now, but with a slew of entries later on that could be very worthwhile to users.  Maybe a low priority?

Feedback: I realize you've put a lot of effort into getting the frontpage to look nice, but as a user all the images, and less categorized information available, actually make the site more frustrating to use.  The listings per category were great, and it was nice to be able to determine at a glance what new sites had been added recently.

Also, the poll here asking to rate the speed of our connection to TBR on a scale of 1-5 could probably use more detail.  Is 1 the best, the least, the slowest?  Is 5 like "5 Stars", or the worst?  I didn't vote because I wasn't sure.

I've never had a connection speed problem with TBR.  Automatic site logouts are more often my problem, as TBR is essentially designed to be a site you'll tab away from (to check out a site) and then back to a few minutes later.  When I come back, I invariably have to log in all over again.  It's not as though TBR is a high-security site with lots of BitCoins flowing back and forth.

thanks for the feedback

I'll see what i can do

Bugswat!  Just typos.

Here, "Catagory" and "Sub-Catagory" should be "Category" and "Sub-Category".  The misspelling also appears in the pulldowns.

Suggestion / Policy Inquiry:

Are you allowing new websites to be posted with a referral link in the URL?

I would imagine that would create quite an incentive for new websites to be added to The BitCoin Review, and would have no cost to anyone.  It's sort of why sites have them, in order to get their name out there.

yes we allow url's to contain referral links
