TrackDevil.com pre-beta

[zkiller]

Wow, it sure has been a while since I have been here. I do apologize for my extended absence. Been very busy around here, but I am slowly seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Any ways, I have been working on a new project for some time now. It is almost ready for a beta release. I think the site is pretty much self explanatory, so I won't waste any time writing an elaborate description. Without further ado, here it is:

www.trackdevil.com

A few things:

1. The header and footer are messed up in IE - will be fixed
2. Video uploads are currently down - been working on a major upgrade to allow for full HD support at similar file sizes

So, what do you think? How are load times for you and what connection do you use?

As always, I am open to any constructive criticism you may have. Thanks.

I watched one of the videos under the "videos being watched right now" section and it loaded fine for me, and I have about 4mb down.

I think the site looks good, a little like liveleak

Thanks!

I have a cable connection and the videos played smoothly for me. My download speed is around 10,000kbps

 

[ian]

just did a speedtest, looks like i am closer to 20,000kbps

dang ian, must be nice. thanks for the speed check!

hope to get everything done this coming week. after that, i will start testing (not on the main domain) with a whole new version of the code behind the site. hope to see some significant improvements in load times.

Just checked your site and it was not working

Thanks for the heads up, Ian.

We were working on the server. Did a complete server restore with a nice clean install. Track Devil now supports HD Videos!

It great! It looks social media site . . . similar to youtube.

The site is really nice. The space is very clean, the upload times seem good. Excellent video quality.

The only thing I would say is on a design point, I wish the lines seperating the content were a little darker. It would give a better sense of space.

thanks to everyone for their kind words and suggestions.
