Nivade

[Calon]

Hello,

Just thought I'd post about Nivade here, seeing as it opened and I didn't post earlier, well it's a social networking site (Means it's like bebo/myspace) but lacks many features currently, but we're working on them!

http://www.nivade.co.uk/

Thanks if you register/visit the website.

I like the look of it :)
But it's one of those 'You can't do anything till you register :P' Social Networks.

But I'll sign up, because it's looking impressive.

It looks like Florph.. but you ruined it..

Not trying to be mean, but how many damn well-known good sites have a centered box on the front.. with JUST login information..

That really makes me want to register! Just a login box.. and two links..

I mean look at MySpace:

Something's missing.. hmmm?

I think I mentioned that it's lacking features. and they're being sorted out.

Yes and there's no need to suck up.

I'm not talking about "missing features"... I'm talking about the actual point of a website is being missed.

It can miss features, and be a great site.. but you're failing at this point, because you don't include content?

What screams "make me register", "this site's going to be awesome", when it's just a login box..

It doesn't even tell what the site is for.. it doesn't explain what the site is going to offer me as a member..

I know Matt gave you the layout.. but I think you've taken florph and ruined it..

He gave it too me with a different color and it was pretty different, fair enough if you think I've ruined it but I like it as it is.

[hamheyelliot]

I acknowledge you implying me as some kind of a suck up?
I am impressed by Nivade, and had a valid point, as many Social Networks seem to withhold information until after sign up, particularly Facebook and Orkut.

I would never find myself trying to suck up to the likes of Dentafrice, or anyone on the forum.

I think I'll discontinue using Nivade if you find my 'helpfulness' some kind of routine.

[Pyroka]

Being an outsider to this whole Nivade thing, that really does look like you've copied and pasted the code of a site and made it your own. Seriously it does, nothing unique, and Myspace is way better soo... why should I use Nivade in the first place.

Oh and it'd help if you had features when you decided to post about it, thats like advertising a server which is a bit faulty atm, having quite a few troubles which may go on for while but what the hell, you can buy a website on it if you want...

Just a way to put it I guess.

Sorry I misread your post, and thought that you was being rude about the inside design.

Though if you never use Nivade again, I sincerly apolagise.

Because it's being created, I recall youmeo advertising a feature called "Likeables" and it wasnt out.

The features that have currently been released are basic, pretty much a basic SNS, nothing special at all and it's based on a community of people in my area, I don't really care if people who aren't using the system don't like it.

Ano it's being created, fair dos and all that... but really, creatin a thread on something which aint even built is bound to target the fact that its not built. It's like trying to ignore the fact that someones fat, despite everyone knows it lol. K stopping on the... metaphors or whatever, idk, uh why advertise it to people who aren't using the system, if you dont care about their opinions?

*boom footshot* right im out, night.

Thanks for clearing that up, I understand :)
I'll give it a whirl.

Because of every version of Nivade that I have released - I have posted on Habboxforum, and got constructive critism of how to improve Nivade, last version actually being a good hit and becoming a 9 page thread.

I think it looks fantastic :) Well done with it

I suggest using the teh upload site integration thingy rather than just linking to it though, make it easier :)

Hey, thanks for the idea.

We're most likely to soon start hosting the images ourself.

Looks alright, lacking features atm as you have said. Not the most secure website ever. Also you need to learn when to say 'to' and when to say 'too'.

[Nli.]

Looks alright, but one big problem that annoys me, when you change something or check something for example profile views, you always have to click back. There should be a menu on the side or at the top like MySpace/Bebo or move the profile views to the main page.

And as others have said previously, the main page isn't to inviting. But overall at the moment it's pretty good.

Edit: I also suggest easier links, because some of the things are making me baffled. Like the revalidation. And upon sign up I entered the wrong birth year and Im looking for away to change it, but can't so maybe add that somewhere. I've got a lot of things that you could perhaps edit to make it better but I'm not gonna post it here. Also, the fact that when you come to edit your profile again the boxes are empty.

Never noticed that mistake, please could you point out on what pages?

It is secure, all passwords are encrypted and re-validation is required if you want to change your password (Passwords are encrypted in MD5 + SHA1)

Yeah, I know there's no point for the page for profile views, I'm going to update that in a minute or so.

Yeah I know, I am also going to re-vamp settings/edit profile.

Also, I thought it was beest if a box was left empty it wouldn't be edited, but I was wrong.. I'll re-code that as well..

Thanks for the constructive feedback,
+REP.

Deafult about me:

Hello, I am new too nivade!

It is secure, all passwords are encrypted and re-validation is required if you want to change your password (Passwords are encrypted in MD5 + SHA1)
It took me 5 minutes to find an XSS and a CSRF. I don't know about the re-validation page as I haven't seen it yet. I'm guessing I need to wait a while for it to appear.
